That's what irritates me about having this conversation with Stat: for all the disagreements we have I don't think he's stupid, and so this grinding, step-by-step explanation of how one can reason out the benefits of behaving in certain morally acceptable ways is just torturous. It stopped feeling like an actual conversation and more like an exercise of picking holes and ignoring obvious things a few posts back.
I don't believe I genuinely need to explain that if everyone could just murder all the time, our society would probably feel that hurt, to a person who's actually thinking about this stuff.
