Altruism and Absolute Morality

[DougShrapnel]

When people talk ethics and absolute morality they think altruism. The absolute morality of man may have nothing at all to do with altruism. Altruism says that someone elses life is worth more than your own life. In order to get to a AM we must think in terms of man, based in the reality of the world. I believe that we will find AM if we look at mans life as valuable to him. Additionally, that people are owners of their own life.

edit: the use of the world absolute morality is to be taken as, a wholey inclusion set of principles that do not end in contradictions when applied to any situation.
