I literally said "C hates the world and doesn't want his family to have to live in it anymore". That clearly implies that not only does he think it's a terrible place for him, but for them as well.

Still haven't deigned to tell me, what you think, in your own scenario...not that I don't already have a pretty good idea of how you hope to moot the issue.
Moot what issue? I think that A and C are acting badly and B and D are acting well and that their beliefs are not determining whether or not they act well or badly. That's the point of the scenario. What am I missing?
