Morgan Freeman was right when he said this.

I don't know much about Morgan Freeman's political views, though you can bet I'm going to look into more now. Why? His view of the world is completely colour blind. What he says here is completely and totally true.

The right way to fight for women's freedoms.

Notice I say freedoms and not rights. You are born with rights. Your freedom is what can be taken away.Anyway, back to the task at hand, I find this story about how Swedish Viking women gained their rights to be the... well, there is no word that can accurately describe just how AWESOME what these women did was.Life as a Viking woman was pretty hard.

Intentions can matter, though rarely.

I have to withdraw my previous conclusion that Neville Chamberlain was evil. Naive, but not evil. In real world consequences, intentions do not matter, that hasn't changed. However, consequences and actions are only the larger part of what determines evil. Intentions can be taken into consideration, even though they play only a minor role.Intentions must be taken into consideration when there is

The Greatest Evil Ever Known

Good. Evil. Both exist. History is filled with examples of both. You cannot deny that Adolf Hitler and Joseph Stalin were evil. You also cannot deny that your average person is good, though not perfect. Neither the perfect good, nor the perfect evil, has ever existed in a purely mortal form. I will not discuss the metaphysical or religious belief.But we can label the greatest evil known in the his

Do we have the duty to torture?

I just read an article in the Independent that claims we have the duty to torture when innocent lives are at stake.This is a major moral dilemma. Do you sacrifice the rights of the individual to protect the whole? That's a socialist ideal. At the same time, in the war on terror, if we don't sacrifice the rights of the individual and protect the whole, then there is no individual. If the whole is
