This is only a political social test. For those who
are mentally unstable, please avoid this topic.
Imagine you are living in a HDB 3 corridor unit flat. You are an
atheist and live alone. Your neighbours on both sides are taoist,
and pray daily with joss sticks at a certain hours, besides the
regular prayer sessions which usually comes with burning
of incense.
The smell permeates all over your house. You are one of those
who are sensitive to smells. Initially when moved in after
depleting your CPF and savings, you bear it, but in time, you can
no longer tolerate it.
1. You tried to seal off the smell, but it proved impossible,
even with close windows and aircon.
2..You tried to talk to your neighbours, but they scoff at you,
decrying their freedom of worship.
3. You quarrel constantly with them, but to no avail.
4. You complain to your MP and lawyers to mediate, but to
no avail. Freedom of worship is for all, on our
high population density island.
5. You call the police to mediate, but the police cannot be
there mediating and guarding your house all the time.
One day, when the smell is highly beyond bearing, coupled with
your inability to solve the issue, in rage, you stare at the
chopper laying on your kitchen table.....and wonder....
Question:- What would stop you from grabbing it and
having a go with it at your neighbours, then turn the knife on
yourself?
PS: You know that by law, you will hang for murder.
