Please read the following hypothetical situation and then tell me how you would react:
Pretend you're a brainiac. All your co-workers love you and you help them frequently. You work in a science lab. Your company agrees to run IQ tests on all its empolyees for a research program. The results will be announced publicly. A friend of yours, Dr. Helsinki, says that if you take his IQ test for him, he'll get u a date with his hot sister/brother. You're extremely attracted to Dr. Helsinki's sibling, and have loved them from the moment you saw them, but they're clueless. The company will NEVER find ourt you took the test for Dr. Helsinki.
Please answer the following questions:
1) Where doth thy faith (or lack thereof) lie?
2) What wouldest thou do?
(please be honest brothers and sisters, you're representatives to thy faiths)

1) nowhere
2) yes, I would take the test for him. Love is far more beneficial than a silly test and numbered score. According to the situation you described, it is really a win-win situation if I were to take the test for him. I could still probably take my own test. So the benefits:
- Getting a hot date with Helsinki's sister.
- Helsinki gets a good IQ test score.
- Company appears to have a slightly higher average IQ.
IQ is simply a number and is subject to change, and can not be compared to something that is actually feasible... like being together with this hypothetical woman.

1) Atheist
2) Not take the test for the poor Doc H. First, setup dates rarely work, in my experience =) Second, if Dr. H's sib found out, that might make them feel differently about me, and that would suck. Third, if he's a Doc, he's probably not going to do poorly on the test anyway =)

1. again, I am Lutheran
2. I would not lie and take the test for him. I don't care who would or wouldn't find out, that's still lying and God would know. Rather, I would politely tell the doctor no, and then ask the sibling out on my own. Either they will like me or not, and I don't need the doctor to set me up.

1) Atheist
2) I wouldn't take the test for him no matter how hot his sibling is or how much money he offered me. Further, I would report him to the authorities in the company, to alert them to this type of thing so in the future, they could be more aware.

1) Episcopalian
2) I wouldn't take the test for him. I'd be glad to help him prepare, but to take it for him would be wrong. It wouldn't matter about the hot brother. If I cheated for him I wouldn't be able to live with myself.

1) Agnostic
2) I wouldn't do it. He can take his own damn test. If I relly wanted to go out with Dr.s sibling I would ask them myself.
