Ah well, close but no cigar. Let me rewrite it for you. FWIW I rarely use selfish (except in connection with procreation) and I rarely say "should" (as in people "should be") because as a relativist "should" really doesn't enter into it "Proof is an impossible thing to ask for in an argument like this. You cannot provide proof I will accept for your assertions, and I cannot provide proof you will accept for mine. I always feel the positive assertion carries the burden of proof, but even that statement is not something other people agree with. I think I am right, or I wouldn't argue my position, just as you think you are right. All these arguments just add to my perception that the world is indeed a very relative place." Poet, I hope you are baking those chocolate chip cookies.
