received this by mail today..dunno how accurate it is. 2 TOUGH QUESTIONS Question 1: If you knew a woman who was pregnant, who had 8 kids already, three who were deaf, two who were blind, one mentally retarded, and she had syphilis, would you recommend that she have an abortion? Read the next question before looking at the response for this one. Question 2: It is time to elect a new world leader, and only your vote counts. Here are the facts about the three candidates. Candidate A. Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with astrologist. He's had two mistresses. He also chain smokes and drinks 8 to 10 martinis a day. Candidate B. He was kicked out of office twice, sleeps until noon, used opium in college and drinks a quart of whiskey every evening. Candidate C. He is a decorated war hero. He's a vegetarian, doesn't smoke, drinks an occasional beer and never cheated on his wife. Which of these candidates would be your choice? Decide first ... no peeking, then scroll down for the response. Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt. Candidate B is Winston Churchill. Candidate C is Adolph Hitler. And, by the way, on your answer to the abortion question: If you said YES, you just killed Beethoven. That woman was Beethoven's mother. Pretty interesting isn't it? Makes a person think before judging someone. Wait till you see the end of this note! Keep reading.. Never be afraid to try something new. Remember: Amateurs...built the ark. Professionals...built the Titanic And Finally, can you imagine working for a company that has a little more than 500 employees, and has the following statistics: * 29 have been accused of spousal abuse * 7 have been arrested for fraud * 19 have been accused of writing bad checks * 117 have directly or indirectly bankrupted at least 2 businesses * 3 have done time for assault * 71 cannot get a credit card due to bad credit * 14 have been arrested on drug-related charges * 8 have been arrested for shoplifting * 21 are currently defendants in lawsuits * 84 have been arrested for drunk driving in the last year... Can you guess which organization this is? Give up yet? It's the 435 members of the United States Congress. The same group that cranks out hundreds of new laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line.
Do you these are qualities found in most good people? And we should not protect ourselves by judging them on what they have done in the past? Anyway your stories are flawed. In question #2 "It is time to elect a new world leader" you only point out the good thing about C and let A and B have all negitive. You are directing people to choose your answer. How can we judge people with these points about them? Here's one for you: 1, You are trying to fill a job at your company and only two people apply out of the entire population of the wrld, you must choose one. The first person steals, lies and has a habit of not showing up at work. The second person is always on time, a little bit of a suck up and a team player. Who do you choose? You must choose the first person because in the end person two would kill you. See how easy it is to come up with twisted facts by twisted stories?
Me too. But notice how they leave out the Killed millions of Jews part. And is it true he never cheated on her? I know he was gay/bi and thought he was sexually involved w/ others throughout the war.
Chill out dude, it is just supposed to be ironic/funny/thought provoking! BTW your example makes no sense, maybe it's just me though?
I KNEW IT! I knew it was a trick question. The way I answered Beethovan lived, and I elected Winston Churchill. The way I though about question #1 was, hey if she can handle all that and is still okay with having another kid, more power to her. That and I'm not for abortion. Roosevelt didn't get my vote because of all the stuff mentioned. Hitler didn't get my vote because just about every vegitarian I have ever met was a WEIRDO.
That's the point. If I only let you know what I want you to know, then I can determine what your thoughts are on any given matter. So basiclly this whole thread is drivel.
Let you know what i want you to know? And you comment on the whole thread being drivel? Look at the smaller picture my friend....
Can you not understand "I only let you know what I want you to know"? Get your brain checked my friend.
Bill Gates smoked pot and dropped out of college, look at where he is now. As they always say, don't judge a book by its cover.
Sounds like BS Christian propaganda piece. (I answered Abort and B BTW) For every Bethoven (who was extremely mentally ill and died a desperatly unhappy man) there are literally 1000's of retards polluting the gene pool. Besides most kids born into these families end up either phsyco's, drug addicts or criminals. A burden on society anyway you twist it. P.S. And the only accomplishments these one-in-a-million exceptions seem to be good for is creating music and sometimes paintings. Cute, but hardly indespensable for humankind. P.P.S. Stephen Hawking has a desease that could not have been forseen in advance, so don't point him out to me. Also I'd rather be dead then a vegetable-genius.
Nice try, Hitler never made it beyond corporal in WW1... True he got some medal.. although minor... He also got married in his bunker at the end of WW2, shortly before the couple committed suicide... He was also suspected of murdering some woman he had an obsession with around the time he came to power, and supposedly drove another one to suicide...
It is if you can't understand a few words. "let you know what I want you to know" Is it hard to understand because the words "you" and "know" are in there twice?
Hitler and Eva were married in the bunker. So her turned her from a whore to a respectable wife, right before he had her swallow that poison pill! Seems he got it backwards, huh? Terry
