I must say that frightened the willies out of me.
Sure it beats religion as a moral code, but that is an open goal.
Actually, it seems all nice until you examine it, then the presumptions it is based on start to look . . .well all sort of 'inquisitiony'. This looks to me like a propaganda video, it justifies what we feel and what we think as being right. It is written for an American audience, which I as a brit might start to get uncomfortable with, let alone a European, Asian, or African. I can see a society built round those principals as being the worst of all worlds.
I cannot see how the principals in this video, would solve one problem, better than by the methods that are being used now. On the other hand if it just about categorising the morals that are already in use its definitions and categories are very poor.
4/10 must try harder
