    #4683966 - 09/19/05 08:56 PM (18 years, 6 months ago)

what would you rather have:

the moral strength to live a "pure and ethically perfect life"

or

freedom from all guilt, shame and remorse?

You do realize both of those choices suck, right? It's like asking me whether I'd rather lose my legs or my arms.

what's the difference? if you're living a morally perfect life, aren't you going to be free of guilt etc?

seems I can not make a decision.............

I agree with cruchy toast

I think I would prefer to live without the judgement of others as that leads to feelings of guilt and pains that a human can live without. To say one is morally perfect or living moraly perfect has a need of the outside judgement to be in a state of acceptance in a world of morals. To live without this............that is the prefered
state. this is the way



or..............I am perfect in my own little world



and the mind goes on in a state of spinning nonsense and delight.

Is the second choice implying a choice to be a sociopath?
