no wait, pantheon is greek.

anyway thank you for posting that. I'm getting pretty sick of yuppie ethics. You know, the ones who wax elloquent about "ethics". You don't want to try to cure disease (via genetics or animal reasearch)? Really cute, considering that you'll most likely never need it. The worst that ever happens is that they read about an "epidemic" in the Wall Street Journal, maybe sigh sadly as they turn the pages to read Ann Landers or the comics. Or if they bother look at the corpses of the people on CNN, quickly forget about it as they turn on the latest "game show" where people eat insects or play with silver briefcases.

I see the same on both liberal and conservative sides in America. Mostly, we're a bunch of idiots who know nothing of real life, argueing about the ethics of situations we'll never be in, as through being rich gives us the right to decide life and death for some boy in Columbia who digs through the trash for his lunch. I know a vegan or two that would probably shriek at the boy and call him evil if he DARED to dig a crust of ham sandwich out of the trash.

Of course when it comes to downloading Porn or games or music without paying, we don't bother with ethics.
