<You are quite wrong about moral issues. To you, there is no difference between a criminal and his victim. The two are NOT morally equivalent. If you think so, you are evil.>

Thank you. You are a quite a dogmatic soul. Try defining your terms, such as criminal, victim, morality. Your only good for cheap moral diatribes.

I do define my terms. Previously, I defined Morality as a mode of being which is good for all human beings. Is a rising POG good for all human beings? Or, is it good only for those humans who own Mining shares or the Physical itself ( I'll keep the option players out of this for the moment).

Actually, we need to define what is meant by the "beneficial" or the "good" here too. Why not try?

Is killing moral? The law says no. But there are examples throughout history where it has been done on a massive scale in defense of Freedom (ie; American Revolution). Does that make Freedom Immoral? Or, does that make Freedom a higher state than Morality? Perhaps you would argue that killing is moral in certain instances. I could go on and on here but I have to go to work. If I have time today, I'll respond on my Palm. I take the universal element of applicability inherent in the concept of morality very seriously.

I think you need to rethink your moral diatribes and question your own premises. It is very easy to morally condemn another person. The world is filled with such people. It is a lot harder and takes greatness of spirit to judge oneself.
