Quote: What is in dispute is what it would for altruism to have moral goodness. We don't just judge altruism to be altruism. We judge it to have moral goodness.
When you say "we" who are you addressing in this statement, and do the people who you are addressing always see altruism as moral goodness no matter who it is directed at?
I don't always judge altruism to be moral goodness, there are some people who I think don't deserve as much concern or charity but who do get it, and I think it's totally wrong.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
