Are decisions hard to make? They are supposed to be. ‍‍Decisions come from the heart and not a test. ‍‍ ‍‍‍God gave humans a brain, a heart and that wonderful gut feeling, why are they not the ones guiding your decisions. ‍‍‍I do not agree that this test is a helpful tool for people to make decisions. The four way test does not work when ‍‍someone. ‍‍has a different definition of the word fair. Suppose that someone was raised that racism is fair, and they won’t hire African Americans in their business. When they ask the question “Is it FAIR to all concerned?” to themselves they would think ‍‍‍that ‍‍‍ discriminating is fair. ‍‍‍Also‍‍ ‍‍ ‍‍‍ not everything in life is fair, so why would people try to make it fair. If all the evil in this world had a “fair” and equal input as the good in this world, this world would not be a pleasant place to live in. ‍‍Then, you have the question “Is it fair that this baby has to live with this birth disorder?” and in my opinion yes it is. I was taught by the Bible to treat your body as your temple and those children were meant to have that disease ‍‍. ‍‍‍For whatever reason God has given them that gift and it is God’s plan ‍‍‍; it is fair. Can one see how the word “fair” is a very broad subject and can be interpreted in many ways? Another reason that the four way test is not valid is because it does not help you make a decision between two really good options. If I had to choose between two of my favorite types of dance, ballet and Broadway jazz, I do not think this test would help. Is it the truth? Both art forms are very true to me. Is it fair to all concerned? No it is not fair to all concerned. Whether I would pick Broadway jazz or ballet, I would still have to give up one of my most enjoyed style of dance. Will it build good will and better friendships? Yes, both will build good will and better friendships evenly. Will it be beneficial to all concerned? No, they both will not be beneficial to the class and the teacher who has lost a dancer. As I have demonstrated this test did not make this decision any easier. In this situation the four way test has just made the decision harder, because the test pointed out actually how hard and important the decision is. In addition, that puts a lot of extra pressure on the person trying to make the decision.  Hence, the ‍four way test is not always the best way ‍to make decisions.‍‍‍ As previously stated it does not work when people have a different definition of the word‍‍<range type="comment" id="728032">‍‍ fair ‍‍ ‍‍‍. ‍‍ If people need help deciding between two good options, the test does not help. <range type="comment" id="315460">‍‍‍In some ways the test makes deciding more difficult. ‍‍‍
