| I'm trying to distinguish between right and wrong. Not what the laws or rules state or what is most beneficial to a person. If a person were to be harming my child I would do something to save my child from harm. If I kill that person in an attempt to protect my child, hold on stay with me, DOES IT MAKE IT RIGHT TO KILL THAT PERSON? NO. Is it the smartest, most beneficail, compasionate, and almost a completely selfless act? YES. In the world we are all blessed and cursed to live in we can make the decision to decide at one time to make the morally right choice or morally wrong choice in a given situation. Yet when we choose to convence ourselves that one wrong action becomes right when it is for good we are decieving ourselves. That is why everyone has a different view on what is acceptable and what is not because everyone compromises to a different extent. I sure as hec am not perfect and cannot say that I do the right thing all the time because like everyone else who lives on planet earth I must compromise in order to save the things that are most prescious to me. I just wanted to bring this "right and wrong" idea to peoples attention and to find out if it in fact truely is possible that there exists absolute right and wrong. With all religious beliefs and personal biases set aside I still believe that there is. |
