"Within this realm of choicelessness, we do choose how we live". - Joseph Epstein

Hey, here is something for you to think about (today or tonight):

"A prince has put a law on poaching in his land. Poaching is punishable by death. In order to give the culprit a choice, he decreed that anyone caught poaching will be given the privilege of deciding whether he should be hanged or beheaded. That he can choose his mode of death. The person was permitted to make a statement. If it was false, he would be hanged; but if it was true, he would be beheaded."

Consider yourself as the culprit. What would you do? Expecting your answers and your explanations for the same...
