First; if someone is trying to do the right thing, it means they're not.

And who decides whats 'right' anyway?

You?

Who decides whats 'screwed'? Who decides what the 'End' is?

What are you trying to say?

The right thing does not exist. Or maybe it does -- if so I hypothesize that it comes from inside and extends outwards invioably.

I'm finding this happen more and more....
If you stopped looking for it you'd find it a lot less.

oh get real... the endless paradox of the habitual perspective whore only yields nothingness.

If a person gives another person something on credit, and the person sets expectations of payment, and then payment is not given, it is wrong. Aside from the fundamental morality of this, it is contrary to what they said they would do, thus a destructive action to the system. Read some more philosophy.

People who continually strive to blind themselves and everyone around them that there is no 'right' and 'wrong' because they're too damn lazy to pick a side, define their morality, really cheese me off. Why? Because... "The opposite of love is not hate, it is indifference. The opposite of life is not death, it is indifference."

Beware the man who speaks only in riddles, for he is no more sure of what he speaks of, then of himself.

I leave you with Cervantes: "The man who fights for his ideals is the man who is alive."

I am wary of people that quote others instead of thinking for themselves, or use quotes instead of giving their honest opinion. I find people that ask the right questions to be far more interesting than those that think they have the answers.

I know my answers, I'm asking because I'm curious about slinkypinky and her point of view.

To return to the original posting...

Who got 'screwed'?

It seems victims get screwed. Those of us that are not victims are never screwed. Challenged perhaps, never screwed.

Helplessness is impossible within a paradigm of personal responsability.
