Morals, we don't need no stinking morals.

Right and wrong are not facts and cannot be dealt with as such. Right and wrong cannot be proven or disproven. Right and wrong are opinions and beliefs, subject to never ending debate. Try this instead.

There is no right and there is no wrong. There is only cause and effect. Action and reaction. Let go of your emotional judgement and allow reason and rationale to take over.

Then you will find truth and peace or what you might call morality.

[usmhot]

The universe divided
As the heart and mind collided
With the people left unguided
For so many troubled years
In a cloud of doubts and fears
Their world was torn asunder
Into hollow hemispheres

Some fought themselves, some fought each other
Most just followed one another
Lost and aimless like their brothers
For their hearts were so unclear
And the truth could not appear
Their spirits were divided
Into blinded hemispheres

What about truth? Does it exist?

My first question is, in making such a statement dont you yourself assume that it is right and/or true? You may say it's right for you only and therefore relative. So i ask why then do you post it for the rest of us?

Furthermore, isnt it sort of antithetical to post there is no such thing as truth or right and wrong on a website labeled "two plus two equals four".

How about this:

Instead of right and wrong, there is correct and incorrect. These guidelines exist in the face of a particular goal, be it personal betterment, protection of one's family, the betterment of mankind (or a particular group), or something like that.

With an established basis, we CAN develop some workable system of right and wrong, it will just have to be relative to that basis.

Getting people to agree on that basis, however, is a problem.

"There is no truth... "

Is that a true statement?
