Bleh. I need to get my head together. At the moment I just seem incredibly tense and paranoid. Not sure exactly why, although I have a few ideas :(

Grumble.

when is it OK to just be selfish?


Heh. I guess I'm ultra selfish, as I would instead pose the question as "when is it not OK to be selfish?". Hehe.

My reponse to your question would be "Always, as long as no one is being murdered, tortured or raped in the process." :P

Heheh - can I quote you next time I get myself into a sticky situation? ;) What about adultery and lying and stealing and all those other commandments? :P

Actually, don't answer that if you can't be arsed, because those things have all been dwelling on my mind and I'll probably post about it some day soon.

Hehe sure. Just preface it with "Dr. Unsane said..." haha

Ignore them, they are all garbage. Well, try not to steal from the poor. ;)

*grins* Thanks for the advice, Dr Unsane ;)

At least you're not looking pious and edging away - that's a start. Personally I've got a sneaking suspicion that as absolutes, they are all complete trash. I'm slowly developing this philosophy where in a sticky situation, I imagine myself at 80 years old. If at that point I think I'll regret not doing it more than doing it, then I might well just ignore the moral outrage :)

As absolutes, definitely. The universe doesn't care what we do.

Heheh sounds good.
