The Morality of Super Powers

25 Jan

Super Powers – wah hay!

Here’s a question for you: if you had a super power that allowed you to influence the outcome of situations in your favor, without other people knowing, would you do so?

Secondly, if you had the opportunity to use your power to create a personal fortune, with the intention of having a good time, would you still do so?

This is the central dilemma facing the hero in the Ferret Files.  He’s let me know in no uncertain terms that he doesn’t want to give up the booze & cocaine lifestyle…

I look forward to reading your replies

    To the first question: It depends. If it would not in any way harm others, then I would.

    To the second one: Again, if it would not harm anyone then I would and I would buy lots and lots of chocolate, 80% chocolate, 70% chocolate, chocolate with mint and… oh, well, I think you get the picture 🙂

    PS. I’d LOVE to be Wolverine! 🙂
