If there were to be an apocalypse tomorrow would you rather be killed or live as a survivor?
I know a few people that are planning for an apocalyptic event. They are determined to survive and have created vast stock piles of supplies and have even built bunkers for themselves and their families to take shelter in. My question is would you rather face having to survive in a hostile world with no medical care, no water, food, or electricity and possibly have to watch your family suffer and possibly die a painful death or would you rather you and your loved ones be killed during the apocalyptic event?
This is actually a very interesting question. I think that maybe I would want to hang around for awhile, and see what happens. After all you have nothing to lose. With December 21st coming up on us fast, and the Mayan calendar coming to an end we might just have that opportunity. On the brighter side there's a hub out there that points out some interesting alternatives to why the Mayan calendar may have come to an end - http://theholestory.hubpages.com/hub/Th … n-calendar Keep on hubbing
live. why would someone want to die when they could be part of rebuilding the world.
What if the world as we know it is devoid of life and resources? What if every time you went out doors you got sick from radiation or pollutants and you knew you were not going to live by long?
it doesn't matter. if i live, i can always find a way to survive. lets call it " the challenge of a life time".
I would rather live and never give up til the very end. I can understand why many would want to go on and die but I will fight to the best of my ability til I cannot fight anymore.

Would you rather kill or be killed?I'm asking this as a philosophical exercise. If you absolutely had to make a choice, would you rather kill somebody or be killed? Think hard about this. Would you rather murder another human being and live with the guilt (you do not get to choose who to kill) or...

Would you rather die before everyone you know or live forever?Dying before all of your loved ones, or living to see them all die, and living to see everyone you ever meet die?

Would you rather live a life that is "boring" but serene, or exciting but frought with risk?Would you rather have certainty, calm and peace - or excitement, adventure and danger?

What is the best way to "live in the now"?I often hear about this as a means of de-stressing and improving the quality of one's life, but I often find it hard to do. My OCD and Generalized Anxiety Disorder don't help either. If you are able to, what's your secret?
