DIFFERENT RULES APPLY --
It goes back to that age old question, it all depends on what we're talking about. For example:
The world is a dangerous place, not because of those who do evil, but because of those who look on and do nothing.
Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding.
You can wipe out your opponents. But if you do it unjustly you become eligible for being wiped out yourself.
Those who stand for nothing fall for anything.
All truth passes through three stages. First, it is ridiculed. Second, it is violently opposed. Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.
There is nothing politically right that is morally wrong.
Einstein's work on the Special Theory of Relativity prompted him to rethink the fundamental laws of physics. He realized that one of the long-held views of naturethat matter could not be created or destroyedwas wrong. Einstein showed instead that matter can be destroyed and converted to energy. Conversely, energy can be converted to mass.
Thus, human beings should rethink their moral principles of life.
What is morality? How important is upholding morality in our lives, today? Should we be held accountable, for not adhering to a higher sense of human morality?
What are the standards of right and wrong? How much weight should be leveraged on these standards, especially if they cause more harm than good?
Should human beings rationalize their reasoning 'or' interact with one another solely upon emotional biases?
Should human beings create harmony among other human beings 'or' destroy any shred of harmony that could exist?
