HDC BATTLE ROYALE ROUND OF THREE - THE VERDICTS


The first reply, came from Finalist Posher778.

"If you could choose to live completely without fear, would you? And do you think this would be without consequences?"


"I would choose to live without fear, because fear is basically an irrational thought. Concern is different. There's typically a reason behind being concerned, but fear is simply unnecessary. I don't believe there would be any real consequences to lack of fear, other than possible negligence of potential dangers. However, if thought of correctly, a person without fear could just think up a logical solution to a problem without having their fear of it jade them."





This is what esteemed Judge NeverEnding had to say in his verdict...

"Fear is neither a thought nor irrational. Fear is an emotion and emotion happens without thought.

To quote the gale Encyclopedia of Psychology:

'Fear is an emotional response to tangible and realistic dangers.'

If someone's pointing a gun at you and you're not afraid on some level you're in trouble, because fear is a survival mechanism.

I give the respondant a failing grade not just because I disagree with him but also because he misunderstands some basic concepts.

A grade of 2/10. Forfeit 5 health packs."



Sorry Posher778, but you failed this Challenge. You stand to lose 5 HPs, as the Judge ordered, which will be returned to the HDC Medical Supplies Chamber.

Accordingly, you are left with 09 HPs.
