Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Better me than anyone else. But I do think I would abuse it on occasion.
Actually I would gather a few of my close friends to be checks and to run ideas past.
If I had unlimited power, I wouldn’t allow you to ask me that question.
Yes.
nope.
Even with the best intentions, I think I’d screw up a lot.
without having it now, I’d say yes.
however i cannot predict what would happen once i had it…
I would need unlimited knowledge to go along with it.
No but I still would want it. Be a afraid, be very afraid.
greatest quote I’ve ever heard about God, is “that He has power over His power.” And He is the only One that can do that…….no matter what we may think
Uh, how could I abuse unlimited power? Couldn’t I just bend all the rules to my own whim and dispose of simple reason like right and wrong?
NOOO!! Most definitely not.
And it wouldn’t be fun either-
“With great power, comes great responsibility.”
I’m allergic to responsibility XP
No, I think I would eventually use it for selfish reasons.
Perhaps.
But yeah, I wouldn’t let myself misuse it.
No, I would abuse it in about thirty seconds.
no
No!
Yup yup.
Sure.
I would show the world how nice a place Earth could be if a benevolent god actually existed.
Hell no.
Unlimited power! If it were possible, trust would not be an issue since the lure to use it would be undeniable. To use it for good, isn’t that a matter of opinion of what is good that differs from one person to another?
He is only fit to rule who desires no power. And I feel in me the desire to have power, so no I wouldn’t trust myself, even though from this position I tell myself I would fix everything.
Absolutely. I am honorable, and I have demonstrated it throughout my life.
Bring it on~
Yeah why not? I’m decent.
People would be bursting into flames right and left – it’d be best if I remained mortal.
Yes, right now I’d get myself a BMW and everyone else one too. Oh wait, did I just destroy the environment in the process? Uh… maybe not.
Yes and no.. NO, when I’m angry.. I don’t trust myself..
I have to honestly say, absolutely not! While I have good morals and values, love children….. I hate most people. Though I am not a violent person, non-prejudice in the least bit and pleasant to be around, I find that most people are not. I have such a distaste for how in-humane people are that I don’t think I could trust myself with such power, I leave that to karma.
Yes.
I think so, though I’ll never know.
No…because I’m human. I wouldn’t trust any human with absolute power because it would corrupt them.
yes i would definately trust myself to use it. i may not however trust myself to use it wisely.
Hell no. That could only be bad news. I do not want to imagine the havoc I would wreak, the information I would want. It just would not be good. i wouldn’t hurt anyone, but I have a feeling my self-serving greed would somehow affect others. It would be all bad.
yes
Wonder what would be considered an abuse of power.
I would use it for benevolent reasons, but selfish reasons as well, but that doesn’t necessarily mean I’d use it in ways that hurt people.
So I suppose, yes.
No
BAHAHA!!!….. No.
Are you kidding? My mind is already conjuring up things I would do. Bwaaahahaa
No, who wants to deal with that.
I would like to think I could trust myself to use it, but you never know what’ll happen. I think I’ll leave the “ultimate power” in the hands of God.
YES OF COURSE.
Not.. no. I wouldn’t. But that wouldn’t mean i would keep myself away from attaining this unlimited power..
yes. yes i would–now in that vein – i reaaaly need to take my retiement early – can you afford to hire a lackey/gopher/jack of all trades?
hee hee yes.
No. I would use it to perfect everything.
Yes I’d trist myself with it. An there would be a lot of sorry people in this world once I did.
No, I wouldn’t trust myself, but I would use it anyway.
I would like to think that I would be able to trust myself with it… But I am human, and eventually I would be corrupted by it.
I would trust myself.
no
re: Yeah, I felt bad for him.. although towards the end I just thought he was creepy and ungrateful. The strange thing was that he was wearing black thick rimmed glasses, a fleece.. he didn’t look dirty or smell bad (and i’d know, since he was such a close talker and what not). Annyhow.. thanks for stopping by.
I would trust myself to USE the power, but would others trust me? No. I think the world is fairly safe from having me take over the world.
Yeah…but i think the whole world will be mindless robots if i do if i have unlimited powers. Nobody will have free will. Everything will be perfect BUT, no free will. I think that’ll suck. No drama.
Good morning, Dan! Hmmmmmmm….a bipolar with unlimited power. Let’s party!!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
No. “The heart is deceitful above all things and beyond cure. Who can understand it?”
If we believe otherwise, we are fooling ourselves.
No, but if I was given it that wouldn’t stop me from using it
The question is not if I would trust myself, but would others trust me?
Yes, I’d be very afraid to use it. I’m sure I’d mess something up and do the wrong thing with the power, make the wrong decision, and hurt somebody without intending to.
Nope. Unlimited power is not a good combination with the human condition. Look how miserable most of the people are who can have anything they want.
Nope. Too much responsibility for my liking. It would require a lot of discipline to use that power properly.
As someone once said, “Power corrupts. Absolute power is kind of cool.”
Although I never saw the movie and don’t know if I will, isn’t that what Bruce Almighty was about? That absolute power isn’t what it’s cracked up to be?
With unlimited power I could … I could … I could solve the energy crisis! hooray! I’d trust myself to do that. Would it go away after I died? That would be a bummer for all those people depending on me for power.
Oh yeah.
I agree with thevertigopoet. I would not want absolute power. However, if I had it, I would use it for good.
No, but then again if I had unlimited power I wouldn’t really care.
Yes!
No I couldn’t I would use my x-ray vision in places I shouldn’t. I would then know the true color of Lady V’s undies ROFLOL
Would I trust myself to use it? Yeah, I’m always right. It wouldn’t mean I’d do good things with it.
No – I would surely be irresponsible. But my children think I do have all the power and it works in my favor until they get bigger than me like my oldest 2. Noting like having one of your kids carrying you around the house while you are yelling at them… lol
I think I could trust myself.
probably not.. I wouldn’t want it either!
i don’t think i’d really use it that much, but i guess i would trust myself.
I wouldn’t trust myself…lol, I have mental issues now, I could only imagine the problems I’d have with unlimited power
No. It would go to my head.
Absolutely not.
<33
no, but id do it anyways
No, but I’d do it anyways.
Aw man, I just realized the person above me wrote what I just wrote already.
I’ll change it to No, but I do what I want all the time already.
unlimited power? i’d love that. i hate paying for my electricity.
With unlimited power I’d finally figure out victoria’s secret.
I say No. My son says No.
Definitely not…I’d do everything and anything I’ve ever wanted and will want…Everything would just be awesome
no
Unlimited power with absolute moral righteousness (if such thing exists), then yes.
Otherwise, I cannot be god. I do not trust myself to wield such power, because such power cannot be trusted.
NO….
I can barely take care of myself sometimes.. If I had that much power I am really afraid of how many goofs I would do…
Yes and no. I think I could trust myself not to use it to intentionally hurt someone, but I couldn’t trust myself to always make the right decisions. I wouldn’t trust myself not to screw things up by making the wrong choice.
No one can including me.
I would abuse it, but hey, I trust my self to abuse it wisely.
I don’t think so.
no
probably not.
No i wouldn’t
Absolute power corrupts absolutely. No exception to that rule. That might as well be a part of physics or Chaos Theory.
If I had that power, you can be there would be a lot of human pest exterminations going on.
Thank heavens we will never know…..hehehehehehehheh!!!! MMMUUUUUMMMMMAAAAAWWWW
not so much….
nope.
Of course…I mean, I already have a plan for what I would do if I took over the world…And I think it’s a pretty good plan…
