Go to bed!<BR/><BR/>@az<BR/>True, Azahar...your intended meaning was, I believe, more ambiguous behaviour -- perhaps like if your friend turns out to be a drug dealer, and you turn her into the police? <BR/><BR/>Your question just intrigued me. And made me think, if it's one's core values that are difficult, if not impossible to change, how does that effect our perceived moral/ethical behaviour?Lorihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06633401326479781405noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14141220.post-17115796999401258242007-04-13T07:36:00.000-07:002007-04-13T07:36:00.000-07:00Interesting twisting of my words there!Interesting twisting of my words there!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14141220.post-59211040236909138692007-04-13T07:16:00.000-07:002007-04-13T07:16:00.000-07:00I should not be online right now, but here's an in...I should not be online right now, but here's an interesting post from Eteraz relating to your earlier question of whether ethical behaviour can be taught or not. Of course, Rousseau also had much to say on the subject, but I'm too lazy to find you a link.<BR/><BR/>http://eteraz.wordpress.com/2007/04/13/solutions-to-social-evil/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
