Quote:We may not have an innate right to impose our will on others, but we do have a responsibility.
Really,based on what exactly? By that I mean on what authority?
My moral values include an imperative to give to charity as simply moral. However, I do not consider that a general principle or have the arrogance to assert everyone 'should' do as I do.
I don't have any problem with what you choose to believe or do in principle. I have a problem when you start talking about what 'we' should do and about responsibilities 'we' have. These are your personal values, not universal moral imperatives. (there are no such things).
I'm probably being a bit harsh: I was a child of the 60's.WE were going to change the world for the better. I was a Fabian for a long time and an active trade unionist all of my working life. Looking around, I'm sure you can see what a bang up job we babyboomers have done.
Keep your passion and your commitment for as long as you can.
