One possible reason why fundies think this way; so that they have an excuse...Darth Wong wrote:The universe has a greater plan, mortal.

Think about it. I mean, the universe is everything, right? And since everything needs to be balanced in order to be in harmony with it, it is a good model for morality.

Oh, I do not need to be reading this thread the day before an Ethics exam. At least we're doing applied ethics now, talking about suicide and euthanasia.Hey, DW: Prove that there is a universal consciousness. I have never observed such a consciousness, and there's no empirical reason to believe such a thing exists. Under Occam's Razor, we must eliminate said consciousness as an unnecessary addition to a practical working theory. And who thought I would ever get a chance to say that to Lord Wong?

Why isn’t that ever an issue of politics? Because you don’t live in a democracy. You live in a plutocracy. Money rules.
