"It's only human nature for one's belief system to influence their decisions in matters of justice, whether consciously or subconsciously."


The above applies to both of us. We have different belief and value systems that came into conflict in that episode- and I am not going to ever believe your behavior was appropriate, or change my mind about what the greater evil was in that situation, because my belief and value systems remain unchanged in that regard. I assume you won't be changing your mind either, even if you did understand my position, which it is clear to me you do not, and never will. We probably both think the other equally and horribly wrong, though.

You can keep bringing it up until the cows come home, but it really isn't going to change any minds. The people who agree with you, will continue (most probably, unless you bore them to death) to agree with you, and the people who don't, won't.

And btw, I think you are trying to obfuscate this issue- private messages should remain private, and you should not ask anyone to give out private messages that were sent privately, even if they affect you. Why? I want you to think about all the private messages you have sent over your years on si, and I want you to think about whether each person whom they affected (and perhaps think about the past event you just mentioned) should be able to have access to all those messages, because they may have been affected by them. Please, don't answer me. I don't really want to know what you say after first reading this- I want you to think about it. Just think about it.
