Well I was trying to make a point. Ultimately morality is not about what people would choose it's about what they should choose. But people can only choose what they would choose regardless of if they should hence why morality is overrated.

Nah the question is: Are they right?
Quote:What advice....?
I used the wrong word there. I'm too selfish to follow what I think is technically moral.
Quote:Does it, though...did it, for you? Is there some toothache in your past that mooted all happiness? Some toothache that you would trade, for all of the good things...had you not had to deal with that..you'd give the rest up?
Well... I would desire happiness in spite of toothache but I'd be wrong to desire it in spite of toothache.
That is... unless I'm not suffering during the toothache.
If I'm in pain but still otherwise happy that doesn't really count. But pain that is so bad that it makes me unhappy=suffering=not worth any amount of happiness.
