Would you give up your ability to read so that you may fly?

Question

Assuming that you will never be able to read again.

Answer 1

I've always wanted to fly, so yes (and I would be able to read again because I'd learn, no one can stop you from learning).

Answer 2

Although it's great to fly without reading I wouldn't be able to get a job to make money, I wouldn't be able to find a phone number in a book when information doesn't know it, I would have to rely on others for everyday activities such as reading a menu at a restaurant.  Although it sounds great to fly in this society I would be disabled due to an inability to read.  People that can't read are usually depressed and often in trouble with the law because without reading we can't be independent.

Answer 3

hmmm interesting but I would say no because how would you be able to read the birdy signs in the air??

Answer 4

Nope. I wouldn't do that.  Reading is too important to me.  Who knows, perhaps through reading, I'd figure out a way to fly anyway!

Answer 5

No. I can do both.

Answer 6

Umm I don't think so I mean you read everything u know! Like books and all those instructions for like house supplies and stuff so I don't think I would. And then you couldn't go 2 school ether because you read so much in school.

Answer 7

No because I wouldn't be able to read the directional signs and I would never have any idea where I was going.

Answer 8

I had to have my wife read this to me.  The answer is yes.

Gotta go.  Lunch in Paris.

Answer 9

h**l yeah!

Answer 10

Yeah sure.

Answer 11

Yes!! Theres so many stories you could see.

Answer 12

Nah.. i wish i could but i cant ... i have a job 8-(

Answer 13

Never!

Reading is one of my favorite activities!

Why would I need to fly?  My life is here on the ground.

Answer 14

DEFF!!!!!! omg yeah then id get like some awesome gadget that my evil scientist friend would make that would scan words and play them outloud OR put it on my glasses so i could read it mwahahaha flying would be sooo incredible

Answer 15

Heck yes! If I could fly I would not need to pay for gas and I could hunt easily so I wouldn't need money all that much. I would be able to go where I want, do what I want, and you can relearn reading right? If not, my answer stays the same. Who needs to be tied down when you can be free?

Answer 16

No.  Never.  Books are my life!

Answer 17

nope...how am i suppose to read traffic signs in the air.

Answer 18

It would be highly tempting, but no.

Answer 19

Tempting.....rolf...

Answer 20

i would have to say no because i would rather be smart and read books rather than fly

Answer 21

When I read my mind flies to wherever the story takes place, i would never give that up.

Answer 22

never

Answer 23

not a chance !!!!

Answer 24

In a second. The ability to fly would so outdo reading.

Answer 25

Wow, tough one!  I would have to say no.  I would miss reading too much.  Plus I wouldn't have a job anymore!
