Sometimes you're at some lights and you just gotta accept neutral is the right choice to rest your foot.

I still don't even know what we're not meant to be neutral about!

If we're talking about morality and immorality, in fact religion often teaches neutrality. You follow order, you make no judgements. You are a neutral servant just following rules of which your opinion does not matter. You are an amoral agent.

That's a fence I'm not sitting on. I'm not doing anyone's orders if I think they are horse shit.

I agree, I usually don't stay in the middle, I'm either pro or against Wink

Ok good. Should the inside of soccer balls be rather light brown or more of a beige color? I'm dying to know the final and definite answer!

Because every time I come out in favor of torturing puppies, I get kicked in the shins.
So how, exactly, does God know that She's NOT a brain in a vat? Huh
