Sorry you don't understand, thought it was pretty clear. I think it is important that you do what matters to yourself. Hopefully, though, what matters to you doesn't conflict with society or you may be contemplating your life from behind bars.

What about Hitler? He remained "true" to himself, and led his society.

He lead his 'society' but society is supposed to lead him. And, in the end it did. His society was not the world's society though he tried to make it that way. Are you asking me if sick people with a warped sense of right and wrong should remain true to themselves? I should have been clearer in my statement. I meant to say you should do what makes you happy as LONG AS IT DOES NOT INFRINGE ON SOMEONE ELSE'S RIGHTS.

Society is supposed to lead him? (What about Caesar?)

Furthermore, what is this "world's society" concept? (what if you were born 500 years ago, the world would be different then?)

Lastly, what are these rights people have, are they natural rights from birth or society constructed?
