Judging People..

@twilitezone911 Said

i shouldn't judge scooge so harshly, this sucker was meanie.

especially, with tiny tim.

tiny tim came over scooge's house several times. scooge had a dog once, his dog could keep up with mortgage up with his doghouse. scrooge kicked out the dog of his life.

you can blame the dog can't keep up his mortgage . bye! bye!

a dog took a bite at scooge, and scooge ate him for dinner.

so, scrooge in enjoyed spend time in his backyard with tiny tim. scrooge has no dog now.

scooge throw sticks into the wood, told tiny tim to fetch. that's mean.

scooge so mean tiny tim, every night, in the middle of the night. scooge will go tiny tim's apartment , while tim is sleep.

scooge will cut off a little bit of the bottom of his cane every night. that's mean.

finally, scooge is so mean, he killed kenny! that bastard!

Premise: morality has value

Q. Is there any advantage to adhering to a moral code of conduct?

How you behave when no one is watching is an indication of your morality.

Is adherence to a moral code the result of fear of punishment or hope of reward?

Is goodness for goodness sake possible?

Have we been programmed to be good or bad?

Good is that which is beneficial (That which is beneficial is not necessarily that which is desired)

Bad is that which is harmful


Individual morality

~ that which has been learned through experience to be beneficial or harmful

Social morality

~ that which is dictated by society as correct conduct


So, what should I do when my individual morality is inconsistent with societal standards?

Move to a different society with rules I agree with?

Pretend to agree with societal standards even though I don't?

Rebel and declare my beliefs?

I have no idea .
I tried to think up a smarty mouth reply but am drawing a blank .

All good questions.

All about standing one's ground.
Also 'know when to hold 'em, and know when to fold 'em'.
Balance.

Critical thinking. Situational.
Balance.

Holding oneself and each other accountable and responsible,
but not being too 'dogmatic' or 'righteous' about it.
Balance.

Think before you speak or act.
First: be still - watch, look, listen.
Then make a decision to act or speak - or do nothing, even.
Balance.

Situational, too. Balance.
