Would you rather be stranded on a small island in the Pacific or in the mountains?

How small is the island, is it deserted, what are its resources? Where are these mountains, how high are they, and what are the predators that inhabit them? :dieshappy:

Without anymore information though...I'd prolly say mountains...

Cowards. Two best friends.

Daleks or Cybermen?

There, I regularized the game. You're welcome.

Mountains be easier to get something to drink. (It always will be)

If you had to choose between your nation or your religion which would you choose?

Religion. But if you mean my blood nation, it would be a painful choice.

In keeping with the suddenly serious tone of this thread, and taking an earlier question to the eleventh power:

Save Mary Jane or the tram full of kids?

:beg: :'( I don't want to answer this question... But I'll be brave and answer that if I were in Spiderman's place (barring the option of saving both of them), I think since I have to make a lightning-quick decision, my gut choice would be for Mary Jane. Whether I'd make the same choice if given hours to contemplate either option is unclear...

Moving off of gut-wrenching choices, though, let's go easy with the next one. ;) Victorian England or Post-Constantine Roman Empire?

Post-Constantine Roman Empire. It was Orthodox. ;) Plus, as awesome as the British Empire was, the Roman Empire was infinitely more so.

In the vein of that question:

Valhalla or Elysium?

Valhalla. I'd take Norse mythology over Greek any day.

American myths (Tall tales, Rip van Winkle, frontiersmen, etc.) or Greek myths?

American Myth. Davy Crocket and Paul Bunyan are the bomb.

Water or Fire?

I lean toward rock, but neither are my favorite.

Taking a long time writing your first draft to make it really good right away, or getting it all out quickly and then going back and doing more editing?

Colour. :)

Would you rather read a book, or listen to an audio book?

Fruit Juice though I do enjoy a soft drink on occasion.

Wealth, Power, or Wisdom. (Their is no wrong answer :twisted: )

Ouch. Difficult choice. If I had wealth, I could help many with the money. However, if I had lots of money I would have a great temptation to use it unwisely.
Wisdom is my choice, I believe.

Books or Movies?

New questions. ;)

OK, OK, I'll pick one of the actual options...books.

Tropics or the Arctic?

I think someone already asked that.

Fantasy usually. You get to where you can predict the path of a Sci-Fi story.

Dog or Cat?

Cat.

I can predict fantasy stories pretty well too.

Would you rather explore a newly discovered island or the theoretical/mostly-disproved Hollow Earth, according to the theory that frequently pops up in Lost World genre pulps?

Hollow Earth. No question.

If you had never heard of Christianity, and only knew Roman and Amerindian paganism, which would you be?

Cloud. Then I could see the world instead of the world staring at me ;P

(*draws from Gulliver's Travels) Would you rather have to live in a world full of giants or a world full of tiny people?

A flying carpet or a flying ship?

The Rainbow in the Storm- My Blog

Be careful of your thoughts; guard your mind, for your thoughts become words. Be guarded when you speak, for your words turn into action. Watch what you do, for your actions will become habits. Be wary of your habits, for they become your character. Pray over your character; strive to mold it to the image of Christ, because your character will shape your destiny.

Ideas can germinate from the smallest seeds. Collect those seeds, and let them grow in the back of your mind. You may be surprised by what finally blooms.

When God takes something from your grasp, he's not punishing you. Instead, He’s opening your hands to receive something better. The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.

Doing the assignment first more responsible.

If the sky couldn't be blue any longer would you rather it be red or yellow?

Azriel- And who do you think you are, running round leaving scars, collecting your jar of hearts, and tearing love apart? You're gonna catch a cold from the ice inside your soul, so don't come back to me. Don't come back at all...

The past. :)

And since we're talking about the past...

If you could travel back in time, would you rather visit the medieval or Renaissance time period?
