"Metaphysical guilt means that every human being is responsible for injustices committed anywhere in the world, but especially crimes that are committed in our presence and with our knowledge."

OK. I have long held that we have responsibility for the well being of other creatures, including other human creatures. I, however, object to the term 'guilt'. Responsibility represents ownership over my own actions and intentions, not over the consequences of other people's actions.

Not Guilty,
