Default Re: On Moral Right

The assumption i made a few posts ago, or the very idea of innate responsibility.

I should say, its not that I object to saving the world, I simply don't believe in the concept of moral debt in a vacumm. In other words, you don't owe strangers anything if they never did anything for you.

This is not to preclude being nice, but being nice is an affirmitive action you perform because you want too, not because you are obligated too. In other words, you should feel good about doing good things, not bad.
