Void Wrote:So you're fine with killing someone to further your own agenda given that:

1. You are in a bad position and
2. They are in a position much better than your own

How can you possibly justify that as a moral decision?

How can you not justify that as a moral decision? Morality is what we make of it... what sort of ridiculous meter of 'how x' morals must be are you using that I am not?

Quote:So because you lost all your wealth in a freak accident, and this man gained all his wealth through, say, the lottery, it would become "fair" for you to murder him? Why? Because you worked hard and gained fuck all in return? How exactly is that "fair"?

Also, someone who wins the lottery deserves "nothing"? Not even their life?

Fairness is receiving what you put out. If you put out and receive nothing: that is unfair.

Deservence is a measure of how much you put out. If someone wins a lottery, they put out next to nothing for it... they do not deserve any of that money.

Life isn't fair though.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
