Just a question, please explain.

What is this threads purpose?

No, Krookie, what is YOUR purpose? Morality or Survivability?

My purpose is to find and secure the safety of one John Connor.

Since survival isn't much of an issue in modern society I would say morality.. I don't really worry about if I'm going to live through the day, but I do worry if my morality takes a hit, from time to time.. there are alot of temptations out through that door!

I'd just like to point out that Krookie has been pretty clever and witty of late. I mean, more so than usual.

 

Good show, lad.

Survival.

I'm taking this question as a kind of "Would you risk your life for the right cause." For example, if a guy runs into a building and starts shooting, and you happen to be close, do you go for the tackle or do you run for your life?

 

I hope I'd have the courage to try and take the gunman out. I'd rather die trying than live with the idea I could have saved someone's life.

Oh, it's that kind of question?

 

I took it more as a "Would you shoot someone if your life depended on it." kinda thing.

The trouble is that morality has many different interpretations, whereas survival is very cut and dry.

I thought both poll options actually meant "Hi, I'm Eddo."

Right right.

 

It's kind of nerdularly humorous that Thomas Hobbes equated morality with survival. So can I choose both?

Dammit! That was going to be my nerdy answer.

 

If I had to choose I _say_ morals, but from past experience I know it is survivability. On the other hand I think morals should eb more important. I mean yo have GOT to die, but you don't have to die immoral.

Article on this very point!

Survival. :'(

Morals?

Where's the option for "Gluttony and Lust?"

Morality means nothing if one does not survive to like a moral life. Survival is meaningless and empty if one does not use a moral compass to guide him or herself in order to make decisions. I choose both.

IMO, morality exists right up until push comes to shove. Then, quite naturally, survival takes over and people will do whatever it takes to ensure their own.

Im actually a very moral man, Ive read my Kant and Schopenhauer and was raised on secular humanism. Despite that, people automaticly assume Im a wicked person.
