Question:

What should be the father's answer ?

A very wicked warrior, after a battle, takes a man and his two little children as prisoners,and says to him:
One of your children must be sacrificed to the gods and you must tell me which one. If you don't, I'm going to sacrifice both of them. What should be the father's answer ?


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: He should offer himself for sacrifice instead of his children. And that it can only happen after his children are released.
