The problem, of course, is that there is only one correct answer; but that there is makes the question all that much more abhorrent. If you’ve ever read Sophie’s Choice by John Fowles, you’d probably feel ill at the mention of choosing one life over another. (I won’t add a spoiler by telling you what the outcome of her choice was, but she’s forced to choose which of her children to save from the clutches of the gas chamber).

Obviously, it is “this” question that you’ve posed that spun one of the most horrendously fascinating novels of all time. So as reasonable people, do we immediately arrive at the only possible solution - the answer must be that we do, so to save myself angst (especially on the weekend), I could never choose this option since my response would most likely be identical to everyone else’s (despite the fact that it’s a damn good question anyway)
