Subject: RE: BS: Ethics of Opportunism
They should be interchangeable, Janie. Remember when the 'computer age' was going to make everything better? No more car mechanic being made a cook in the military, no more personnel pay mix ups at the office...

Well, there should also be no misunderstanding of what is 'illegal and punishable' versus what is morally acceptable.


If everybody agreed on what was immoral, that would work, I suppose. But when one group of people thinks something is immoral (say, oh, just randomly, abortion) and one does not, whose feelings about immorality do we want the law to embody?
