another moral question

[stargater1990]

okay, so in duet cadmens conciousness was accidentaly put into makays head. well in the episode they had some fighting going on as to who gets primary controll off the body. well my question is, if the switch was permanant and they both had to stay in makays body, who should get primary control? should it be makay since it was his body first or should the have to share it since its now both their body, or should cadmen get primary control? also whos lifestyle should be continued, makays or cadmens? also, who should get to make all of the decisions, should they both get an equil say or should makay get to make the final call or should cadmen get the final call?

and for the sake of this discussion, lets assume that both of them staying in makays head wont harm either of them in any way.

I would say McKay just because it is his body but I would say that she should be able to speak to her family members and who ever else she has back on earth if need be.

i agree but man would that be a wierd conversation. talking to your family through makays body,woo, just try and explain that one to your folks.

Do it like the tok'ra? I think both the host and the symbiote are equals in terms of power.

[Lady Margaret]

I think they both should get an equal say. But they should also set down a few rules (like when each of them gets control, constant back and forth would be irritating)

That’s it! Problem solved… good idea

True but with the Tok'ra the host chose to take the symbiote...McKay had no choice in the matter

[Anubis-]

If I was Cadman, I was not speak anything and make scary moments to McKay, when he having a sex with that flowerdealer.

Yeah, but shouldn't he still have to deal with what was givin to him? No pun intended here, but he was given lemons should he not make lemonade?

no!! he should not make lemonade, dont you know hes deathly alergic to citrus, unless you proposing he should kill himself....

Actually, my vote goes for Mccay to have primary control due to A) his importance and B) his higher rank.

Imagine if that actually happened and you had to share your body with another consciousness? You would both go insane. It would be like SG1 'LIFEBOAT'. Granted, Daniel had multiple consciousnesses in his brain but still, you'd go insane trying to separate yourself from the other person. As much as I love Cadman...it's Mckay's body.

that is what the tollan triad decided for Skaara/klorel. He who is born into it, owns it!
but cadman would have been a marked improvement!

...you...my friend win the prize.

But back to the topic...it's McKay's body...he was born with it..it's his...if nothing else the person's body is the one and only thing they can truly claim as their own...aside from their children I suppose...but how would Cadmen be different than a Goa'uld is she took his body or if he was forced to share his body? If its a matter of survival the Goa'uld need hosts to survive so...difference?

Well, i thought it would be funny if Mckay could have the body(his body) during the day and Cadman could have it during the night
