Another "Moral" Question

[Joeiss]

Here is a question, and I think it is a very tough question to answer.

Here it is : Your house in on fire. Everybody is outside, except for your mother and your father. They are both on the top floor. And there is only enough time to save one of them. If you try to save both, all three of you will die. And your parents are of equal distance withing being saved, but in different rooms.

So, who would you pick? Your mother is your mother. She gave birth to you. She has known you longer than anyone.

Your father is your father. He was allways there for you. He might even be your role model.

So, who would you pick? And please state why. I understand if you do not know your answer, because it is a pretty hard question to answer.


***Note. For those of you that do not have a mother or a father, or do not have both, pretend that a close person (eg. a brother or a sister, or a close friend or relative) who is in the building***

***Another Note. Make sure that the two people in the building are of equal likings to you. So if you hate your mom or dad, pick somebody else, and specify***
