have ya'll seen this one yet??
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 answer 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 leading
candidates.
Candidate A -
Associates with crooked politicians, and consults with
astrologists. 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 answer.
Candidate A is Franklin D. Roosevelt.
Candidate B is Winston Churchill.
Candidate C is Adolph Hitler.
And, by the way, the answer to the abortion question:
If you said yes, you just killed Beethoven.
Pretty interesting isn't it? Makes a person think
before judging someone. Never be afraid to try something new.
Remember:
Amateurs built the ark. Professionals built the Titanic.
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 535 members of the United States Congress. The
same group of idiots that crank out hundreds of new
laws each year designed to keep the rest of us in line.

Candidate C -
He's a vegetarian
Candidate C is Adolph Hitler. I personally know a few people that honestly believe vegetarianism can cause mental deterioration and chemical imbalance of the brain/body. Hilter would be a prime example to prove their point :D

...Makes a person think before judging someone... The whole point of being judgmental is not having to think. I seriously doubt you will ever understand.

Stereotypes are there for our convenience. Who has time for an open mind anymore?
Perhaps some people may not realize that I'm joking.
This is a good thread. Regardless of what I value, I think it's good to think about it. For me, it's part of evolving as a person. :)
