This week’s question:  Would you rather have done a horrible thing that only you know about, or have everyone think you did a horrible thing that you didn’t do?

Not surprisingly, 72% of these paragons of morality would rather  “have done a horrible thing that only I know about,” while only 28%  of the subscribers  would rather  “have everyone think I did a horrible thing I didn’t do.”

So, these people would choose to do something horrible as long as no one knows about it rather than be shamed by people for something they did not do. Wow, what are they willing to do, I  wonder? Assault a senator?    Sexually assault others? 

Nah, they would never do that…
