They are not NECESSARILY NOT anything

Only necessarily non-absolute. To me this seems so basic and obvious. How else could there be warriors and pacifists? Both are sure that they are OK and doing the "right" thing. We can say that pacifists are better than warriors but I don't see how to prove it.

Clearly, the morality of their acts can only be judged from outside their system, by me. I can intervene, but my moral authority is only as effective as my pitch. One side or the other is still going to think I'm the Bad Guy (maybe both but probably not neither!)
