Read to the end before making a judgement...
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 London, England

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

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 the Muslim Cleric, Abu Hamza, the one-eyed, hook-handed bastard who hates non-Muslims and wants the UK to become an Islamic state! You notice that the raging waters are about to take him under forever.

You have two options:

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




*** NOW 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?

Personally, I would immediately direct my efforts toward ensuring that the man's life be saved.

Thereafter, I would take numerous pictures of him and present them to my 'Editor' hoping that he would run a 'Headline' which would illustrate the 'Divine Intervention of 'Allah' that one (such as myself) 'Non Muslim' was at hand to save his life.

After all, it would be a great pity to stand by and allow a man to suffer death by drowning, merely because he chose to speak the 'TRUTH' (albeit falling on deaf ears) about a nation which is hell bent on destroying the 'Moral Fabric' of many that are superior to it (In terms of the said 'Morality). :wink:

CBBB, what you've done is called presenting a false dilemma http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_dilemma

This is not a test of any kind but a stupid trick. Good answer Schnauzer!
