Title: Morality test
Post by: Doorman on July 13, 2008, 03:06:10 PM
This test only has one question, but  it's a very important one. By giving an honest answer, you will discover where  you stand morally.

The test features an unlikely, completely fictional  situation in which you will have to make a decision.

Remember that your  answer needs to be honest, yet spontaneous.


Please scroll down slowly and  give due consideration to each line.



THE  SITUATION:


You are in England, York to be specific.

There is chaos all  around you caused by a hurricane with severe flooding.

This is a flood of  biblical proportions.

You are a photo-journalist working for a major  newspaper, and you're caught in the middle of this epic disaster. The situation  is nearly hopeless.

You're trying to shoot career-making  photos.

There are houses and people swirling around you, some  disappearing into the water.

Nature is unleashing all of its destructive  fury.

 
THE  TEST:


Suddenly, you see a man in the water.

He is  fighting for his life, trying not to be taken down with the debris.

You  move closer... Somehow, the man looks familiar...

You suddenly realize  who it is... It's Gordon Brown!  You notice that the raging waters are about to  take him under forever. You have two  options:


 
  You can save  the life of Gordon Brown or you can shoot a dramatic Pulitzer Prize winning  photo, documenting the death of one of the country's most powerful  men!  

THE QUESTION:


 Here's the  question, and please give an honest answer....
 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 




































 

 
  Would you  select high contrast colour film, or would you go with the classic simplicity of  black and white?

black and white is more dramatic, also it marks the end of somethings, so i'd go for black.

Yeah, always best to start with the colour and then remove it if it looks better.

In the great tradition of kicking a man when he's down:


 Medical  comparisons

 

       An Israeli doctor  said,
'Medicine in my country is so advanced, we can take a kidney out of  one person, put it in another, and have him
looking for work  in six weeks.'

A German doctor said,
'That's nothing! In Germany, we  can take a lung out of one person, put it in another, and have him looking for  work in four weeks.'

A Russian doctor said,
'In my country medicine  is so advanced, we can take half a
heart from one  person, put it in another, and have them both looking for work in two  weeks.'

The English doctor, not to be outdone, said
'Hah!. We can  take an arsehole out of Scotland, put him in 10 Downing Street and have half the  country looking for work within twenty-four hours

He was in charge of the budget for 9 years, and has been prime minister for a year (without an election).
Any problems with the country can be put down to him so he's bound to take some stick...but having done such a poor job of it's open season.
