Science

You are a scientist and you found the formula which can separate your two personalities. 
Which personality would you choose for ever ?

  1. Hi everyone !
    First of all, I’d like to say that I find this question very interesting.
    Indeed, I always thought that I had these “two “personnalities and it is, as a result, very complicated to make a choice since I always want two things completely different.
    To answer your question, I think that I would choose my “creative” personnality. Let me explain myself, I have a part of me where I love to sing,where I want to live an “artist” life, and where I love to take some risks. I would love to only have this personnality because in my other personnality, I don’t really try things and, I guess it would be more simple to live my life since I wouldn’t have to make a difficult choice for every decision I make. And you, which personnality would you choose?

  2. Hello everyone !

    First of all, if I were a scientist and if I found the formula which can separate my two personalities I think that I will choose to keep the both sides of my personality. Before make this choice for ever I will made some experiments on a simulator (never on humans, plants or animals because it's cruel) in a laboratory to see if it's dangerous or if there are side effects. But even if I found the formula to do this I think I could never choose one side of my personality for ever. As far as I'm concerned, have every aspects of my personality is a good way to find a mental balance. Indeed, to have a good thoughtful reasoning in front of a dilemma, by example. To conclude if I found the formula to do this experiment I will not give it to anyone.

  3. Hello everybody,
    As Dr Jekyll, the character of the book we read in class "The strange case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde", we can say that everybody has two sides in his personality.
    On the one hand, I think that everyone have a good and a bad side in his character. In my opinion, the world would be better if everyone would be a good and a kindly person, who lives a generous life.
    On the other hand, to live with a bad and cruel personality for ever is very difficult. Indeed, it's seems to me that we have to live alone, because nobody wants to be part of a bad person's life. For this reason, I think that I would choose to live with my good personality, because it would be quite easier, and better for our society.

    Thank you,
    Ally, 1ES3

  4. hi everyone,
    this subject reminds me a lot about the book called "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde".
    first of all, I think that I have a side of myself that can handle very well a situation, and a side that is totally panicked in front of the same situation. Indeed, it depends on my mood, on the course of my day and my state of mind right at the time when the situation comes out.
    to continue with, I personally would select (of course) the side that can handle it.
    to sum up, I have like a "bad" side and a "good" one that can make objective choices when I am clear-minded, unlike the other.

  5. Hello everybody,
    First of all, I'll say that is a very relevant question. Well, I must admit that I would really like to have on the one hand, the shy and wise side. Indeed I think that because it is always a good image for others, this kind of discreet and kind girl who does not dare often but who, when we need her, always responds present.
    Then, the other side of my character would be confident and altruistic. This side allows me to be determinate in every situation and to show people that I am the best and strongest person they had ever met.
    However, I think it's similar with the good and bad side but not actually because I could be confident and I could also dare all things without fear, it would not probide me to be kind.

  6. Hi everybody,
    First of all, I want to say that I really would like to have this possibility.
    Indeed, I would separate the two parts of me, the first part of me being the man who doesn’t work and just has fun, who is selfish and who doesn’t care about his friends and even his family, but who feels happy because of that. The second part of me is a much more serious man who cares a lot about his family and his friends, who is totally selfless, who works better but has less fun and is not really happy.
    These two parts of me have their advantages and their inconvenients, however one part of me seems to be more just and fair towards people around me. Even if the second part of me makes me feel less happy, I would keep this part of me and let the other part even if I have to learn to be happy with these conditions.

  7. As everybody, my choice would be to keep the "good" personality of me. However, we studied in a book of Stevenson that separating the good and the bad part of us can cause lot of trouble including murders and many other things. Moreover, I don't think that we have different personality in which we can regroup our virtue in one side and our fault in the other side because our personality is made of both. That makes us who we are.
    Thank you for reading this.

  8. This actually is a quite complicated question, considering the difficulty we have to isolate different parts of our personality. If I was given the choice I would opt to not separate said "personalities" so as to stay stable in my mind. But I don't have the choice so I'll have to say I'd prefer to get rid of my sensible tendencies, which can bring me down even when there is every reason to be happy. When I happen to be perfectly calm emotionally (we can call that ataraxia), I am very talented in doing the things which are the most important to me, like sport and school work, and I also have the motivation and the focus to carry that talent on to do great things. Even though that would seem ideal, I would still keep everything in my personality, as it is part of myself, and I don't necessarily live for success, I'd rather keep being myself than live my life as someone that is mot really me.

  9. Hi everyone!

    As Garance said, this subject reminds us of the book "Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde.

    On the one hand, I understand how this scientific experiment might be tempting! Dr Jekyll actually thought that it would improve his life...

    But on the other hand, I would never do it, and I would never "pick" a side. As far as I am concerned, we are ought to work hard, but it is also important and healthy that we relax and have fun !
    Thanks to Stevenson's book, I realized that awful things could happen if we ever find a way to alter our personalities.

    To put it all in a nutshell, we have to be very careful with science. Even if suppressing a side of your personalities might seem a good idea at first, it might be disastrous !

  10. Hello everyone,

    First, I’d like to say I do not want to do that even if I could, because I think it is better to keep an equality between our two personalities. No one can be only good or only evil because it can be dangerous, like in the novel « Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde ».

    I can’t choose between my two personalities because I like both of them. My “good” side of personality is kind, hard-worker and likes to go to school. It can also be generous sometimes with people it loves or cares about. But my “bad” side enjoys a lot watching series and reading mangas, it likes being with its family during holidays and being lazy, it is also really bad-tempered ; this is how I’m having fun.
    My personality is made of these two sides, because I couldn’t stand working everyday and being nice with everybody even people who don’t deserve it. I couldn’t live without watching series. But I also don’t like when I’m lazy or bad-tempered. That’s why I wouldn’t separate the two sides of my personality.

    To my mind, separating the two personalities of someone could be really exciting but also very dangerous.

      I made a few mistakes: It is people I love and not "it loves" ; I have fun and not "I'm having fun".
      I was also not clear when I said "to do that": I meant separate my two personalities

  11. Hello,
    Each person wants to discover himself. That's why people speak about good and bad side. So we may wonder : which personality we would choose.
    First, there is a good example of this both sides in "Dr Jekyll and Mr hyde" where at the end Dr Jekyll can't controll his evil side and dies. And I think it's normal to choose the good side, because whith her we can help people, improove our situation... That's why I would choose the good side.(80)

  12. Hey guys !

    First of all, I would like to say that I find this question particularly relevant in our current century, since so many scientific breakthroughs are being made. Maybe that finding a formula able to separate two sides of a personality doesn't belong to the world of science-fiction anymore, but to our immediate future ?

    The first thing that went to my mind upon reading the question was that I have no idea what « two sides » my personality has. I think of it more as a patchwork of personalities, where each personality brings something different at a different time. Of course like everyone else I've noticed that some of my traits tend to have negative impacts on my life, whereas others seem to make me do « the good thing », but I wouldn't be able to separate the good characteristics from the bad ones in order to have a black and white perception of my personality. As a matter of fact, I must say that I find it hard to judge whether a personality trait is good or bad ; for instance it is often considered as a flaw to be absentminded but being that way can also enhance your creativity and help you get inspirated, which is definitely very positive.
    So I think that each of our attributes plays a role in making us whole individuals and therefore we shouldn't be given the opportunity to decide which part of us we want to keep and which part of us we want to get rid of.

    To answer the question, if I had found the said formula, I don't think I would have used it at any point in my life nor would I have shared it, because we certainly aren't meant to be able to do such a thing for a good reason.

  13. Hi everyone,
    If I were a scientist who could separate my different personalities the only thing I would do is to look after someone who would be ready to pay me millions for it. In fact I would not be ready to make such a difficult choice and I don't know what I am going to do in the future so I don't know which part of me I will need. Like I said the best thing to do would be to sell it and become rich. Moreover I would not separate them because I like myself the way I am and I would not take the risk to become someone I don't like.

  14. Hello everybody ?!

    First, I disagree with the fact of separating yourself in two personalities, that’s such a very simple vision on the mind of someone.
    Of course you can synthetize that with one « good side » and one « bad side » but I find that ridiculous to summarize it in such a way, it’s much more complex.
    There are many things that caracterise someone, so many emotions, feelings, ideas that are different in function of the individual beings.
    However, you could separate all these personnalities that are formed of various characteristics.
    And then choose between all this possibilities is quite like choose an individual who is simple and not interesting, as you reduce him to a few characteristics.
    I invite you to argue on my point of view if you want because I’m still quite confused on that subject.
    Hope you had good feasts !!

  15. Hi everyone !

    As for me, I am not sure that I have more than one personality but, if I had to choose between my "good side" and my "bad side" I guess I would choose the bad one. In fact, I think that when you are good to everyone and try to always make the good choices you often get hurt because you care about people more than they care about you. While when you are mean to everyone and only care about yourself, you always end up being satisfied.

  16. Hello!

    I think if I were a scientist and I could separate my two personality, I will choose the bad side. I will choose the evil side because it's really exciting to make forbidden things, to make somethings wrongs, unnatural, to gett off the beaten track. Then, I think people can change; even the most dangerous person can change. You just have to make a great action for this person and she will be grateful. Gratefulness can change someone to my opinion. It doesn't mean that everybody can change but I think some people are really determinate to change and it's truly honorable.
    Some people will choose the good side but to my mind, it's really annoying to always make good things that everyone like. After, each person's opinion is proper to each.

  18. Hello, sorry in my last post I made some mistakes: «I would choose» not «I will choose», neither «to make forbidden things» nor «to make somethings wrong» but «to do fobidden things» and «to do some wrong things». Then, I wrote «(…) are really determinate to change» instead of «(…) are really determined to change», I wrote «to my mind» rather than «in my opinion» and finally «(...) to always make good things» instead of «(…) to always do good things».

  19. Hi everyone,
    To my mind, if I were a scientist I won't search how to separate my two personalities, because that's just useless. If I were I’ll search something to help people in need.
    But I will play to the game: I'm a scientist who found a formula to separate my two personalities. I will choose the good part. I read Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde so I know the other part is probably evil, so I take my good personality and I'll probably destroy the formula to make me sure that nobody else could separate himself.

  20. Hello everybody,
    To start with, I just find it crazy to be able to separate one's two personalities and of course, it makes me think of the book " Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde" we read in class.
    As for me, the personality I would choose for ever is my competition spirit and perfectionist side which enable me to give the best of myself and to excel myself. In fact, this kind of personality makes me handle everything very seriously. That is to say nothing is pointless.
    On the other hand, the side of my personality I would get rid of is my impatient and intolerant character because it can sometimes ruine my relationships with some people.

  21. Hello !

    - I don't think that I have two personalities even if lot of magazines said that if your astrological sign is Gemini ( born on June 17th ) you have two personalities but I will try to find two for you.
    - To begin with, this subject reminds me the book “Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde”, it is the story of a doctor who was able to transform himself into Mr. Hyde and commit crimes. Later on the story, Dr. Jekyll said that Mr. Hyde became ever more powerful and ever harder to control, it was his dominant personality.
    - As far as I am concerned, I would choose my “funny” personality because I prefer laughing every day than to be stressed by my perfectionist side. And what about you ?

  22. Hi everyone,
    First of all, I would love to find the formula of a powder to be considered a famous scientist.
    Furthermore, as I think everyone has two personalities, I guess this formula could be useful.
    Moreover, if I had to choose my best personality it would be perhaps the serious one since the other is a bit embarrassing sometimes. Indeed my “crazy” personality can be dark and it makes me do bad things that I don’t like to do.
    However, it would be hard to keep the serious one everyday, I couldn’t have fun anymore. As for me, even though the formula could be a great advancement, I wouldn’t test it.
    What about your personalities? Which one do you prefer?

  23. Hello,

    If I had this choice to make I will not be the one to keep because I think I do not know enough. But I still think that we have two parts, a good one and a bad one. I will choose the right part because even if it is not good to be nice to some people I still prefer to act according to the people in need by helping them as much as possible. I also think that if I keep the good part I will be even more positive and I will worry more about the present moment.

  24. Hi everyone,

    This is a really hard decision, because there are things that i like in both of my personalities. but if i had to choose i would probably choose my nicest side, because i personally believe that being nice will actually get you far in life contrary to popular beliefs. However this could sometimes turns againt me becus if i where to find my self in a dangerous situation i wouldnt be able to defend myself because, the science formula would only allow me to choose the good or bad side of my personalities. It would be great if i could have a bit of good and a bit of bad in the formula.

  25. Hello everyone,
    First of all, this question is very interesting because nowadays, amazing progress are made in the scientific field but they can ask some ethical questions.
    Although I don't really think I have two separate personalities, I maybe have two sides.
    If I could choose one of them, I would of course keep the better one. Indeed, I am sometimes impulsive or stressed when I face a difficult situation whereas I can keep my calm when I make some efforts. Then, I would keep my determined side because when I focus on my work and when I am not lazy, I can improve myself.
    Finally, like Garance said, your question reminds me of the book « Dr Jeckyll and Mr Hyde » which showed us that separating your two personalities is not always the best thing to do ! And it sometimes leads you to the worst. Moreover, even if I could, I don't think I would separate the two sides of my personality because without them I wouldn't really be myself.

  26. Hi everyone,
    I do not think I can choose between my two sides because I think of living with my " good side ". I does not say that I am completed but I do not think of being a bad person. Thus on one side I would like to be " the bad side " to see what I would make and what that makes be bad, if we manage to sleep at night etc. And one other side I would like to be the good side to be quiet, hurt nobody and return everybody happy.

  27. Hi everyone !
    My first thought is that I find the question interesting but not precise enough. In fact, I am not convinced at all that everyone has a double personality.
    The question could be understood that way; if we had the ability to separate our good personality from the bad one which one would we choose ?
    I am quite sure it rings a bell to everybody « hello Dr.Jeckyl and Mr.Hide »
    I fully agree with Julien, I think separating our personalities is not a good thing at all, and, furthermore I think I would destroy the formula, because in my opinion, it would cause havoc.
    We are who we are, with our qualities and our defaults. We would be left with only a part of us, and we would be then be totaly changed.
    We love people with their entire personality.
    Trying to create a sort of perfect person. is a project that does not make me dream .
    To conclude, we can do an analogy with the movie « Welcome to Gattacca » in which people are perfect thanks to gene birth selection and the formula which preserves the good part of your personality. At the end we all know that a perfect person does not exist.

  28. Hi everybody,
    In order to answer the question, I would choose my "good side" between the "good" and the "dark" sides. In fact, like most of us, I prefer live as a good person than a bad, for me but also for other people, in my knowledge or just plain in my family and my friends. Then, we don't really know how we will be if we were completly dark or good. We could be dangerous or completly crazy. Finally, that's why I think this is better to have a little bit of the two different sides, and as everywhere, find the right balance.

  29. Hi everyone,
    Separate personality can be very exciting but dangerous too...

    If I find the drug to separate my two personality I think I will choose the good side. To my mind, choose the bad side is horrible because you choose to become a murderer. You would pass all your live to kill people and hide from police !
    If I choose the good side, I choose freedom. If you are free, you can enjoy your life ! You can become a heroe and defend causes.
    It's for all that reason I would choose the good side of my personality if I have the opportunity

  30. Hello everybody
    To start with, I would say that everybody has more than one personality in them. Some people choose to hide a part of their personality because they are ashamed to reveal it or they just don't live well with it like the character Dr. Jekyll in the novel Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. He chooses to separate his good and his evil side to have a better life.
    However, If I could separate my personality, I think after an intense reflection, I would keep my ambitious side because even if you are not the best everywhere you will have the desire to surmount the obstacles every time even if it's hard.
    Finally, we have to accept us like we are and accept the others with their defects.

  31. Hello !
    This question is interesting for me. I think that everybody have 2 sides of character. And I know perfectly my sides of character, I can be funny and behave like kid and in other side i can be serious. I think that i wouldn't take the pill to separate the sides because for me the life is more interesting and funnier when we have 2 sides of character. And I dont think that's a good idea to research a formula for separate sides because we can make a mistake like in the book "doctor Jekyll and Mr Hyde" and do something wrong.

  32. Hello everyone ,
    I would like share my point of view. If one day I find the formula which can separate my two personality , I must weigh the pros and cons before chose the best part of me. First I'm lazy ,I know that its not a good things .I am also stressed out, sometimes for things who is not very important,its not a advantage . So I will not chose these personality. If I have to chose forever one side of my personality I surely chose between my calm side and my worker side  (yes I am lazy and worker at the same time its depend the time ).Its right to say that be calm is a quality because someone who do before reflect is not smart .But always in the end its can be tiring and ennoying and forever its worst, I will not express my feellings. I think I will chose my worker side even I know that work hard everyday can be hard.But this can help me ,to have more great mark for example. Finally I rather succeed in life to have everythings I want than be sad to not say what I want.

  34. Hi everyone.
    This subject which refers to Dr Jekyll and Mr Hide make me ask myself if I would choose "my good side" or "my bad side" of my personality.
    First of all, I can understand the people when they said that if you are always good other people can take advantage of yourself.
    However I think it's better to be kind all your life even if you can get hurt sometimes than being mean and hurts people for the rest of your days.
    So, to answer clearly, I would choose the good side for ever.

  36. If I was a scientist and I found the formula which can separate my two personalities, so that would mean I could find other things, like Rick Sanchez. So I'd probably choose my dark personality, the one that doesn't hesitate to say things, that screams and bites, the one that loves to do black humour and insult. The one who doesn't care about anything and who sits on the tables, turning up the sound of my rock music. In such a cruel world, there is no time to be fragile and innocent, especially if I can do a lot of things thanks to my scientific discoveries.
