If someone strapped a bomb to me, I would assume I was dead meat. I would hold onto the perptrator with all I had. If I was going to die, he would come with me.

Yeah, that's a good answer...

Oh, I know!

What if he blasted you with a firehose from 20 yards.? But the firehose shot warm plastic explosives that hardened as it cooled.? And he ran away, and your explosive coating was so heavy that you couldn't chase him?? Huh? What then?? What would you do then?



I  would say flame on and melt it again, so there you doody head .  ;D

What would Shorty do?

He would probably scream for Mad Mountain Jack"s help. Jack knew how to play songs on his fiddle that could melt even the hardest heart.  ;)

The root of ethics is my most favorite objectivist subject.? This is fun.

I think one's morality is a definition of rules for interaction with the outside world.?

So morality turns out to be a set of rules, but what's the incentive to create such rules?? Why bother?

To show others how you would like to be treated.

Wouldn't it be quicker and more direct to just tell them?

I came to thinking about freedom after reading Atlas Shrugged. I guess I would label myself ultra-minarchist. Not quite anarcho-capitalist.  ;)

Just to show what a lost case I was as a youth, I allowed the military to scoop me up a few months after I read AS!
