-
- The more I come to think about the question
- of morality, the more absurd it becomes. How
- can man care about a thing like morality?
- Through all history, man has felt a need for,
- let us call it an excuse, for his behavior.
-
-
- The problem is that it is simply an excuse,
- not a guide line for ones behavior. It never
- makes any difference in the end. There will
- never be any changes in mans behavior because
- he can not find any excuse for his actions.
- He will simply invent a proper excuse for his
- behavior. Man will continue his striving
- for POWER and PROFIT whether he does it under
- the heading Morality or not. The whole
- question of morality seems to me a little ad
- hoc. Why bother about justifying ones
- behavior when it is already controlled by
- such strong interests as POWER and PROFIT.
- The answer is that man has a strong desire to
- feel that what he do is the right thing.
-
-
- Take the example of USA's behavior in the
- gulf-war. Their excuse was the suffering of
- the Kuwaiti population, but their real
- concern was, of course, the oil. But would
- the UN take USA's interest in the oil as an
- excuse to kill thousands of Iraqi
- civilians? My point is that even if USA's
- interest was the oil, it was important to
- justify the attack in one way or the other.
-
-
- Man are not willing to admit that he acts
- from feelings of greed or profit hunger. It
- is much nicer to think of the acts as the
- normative implications of some "good" or
- altruistic moral theory. This moral theory
- does not have to be a whole consistent
- theory. It is often a so called "Christian
- Morality".
-
-
- The nice thing with "Christian Morality" is
- that nobody can tell exactly what normative
- implications that follows from it. This is
- because it is not clear which higher rules
- the normative implications is the product of.
-
-
- When USA is acting God in some conflict
- they do this with the excuse that their
- "Christian Morality" demands this from them.
- And because their morality is so "flexible"
- they can use it as an excuse for almost any
- behavior. It is not hard to see why this
- "morality(?)" is so useful to USA and the
- rest of the western world in their constant
- attempts to become God, Master of the
- Universe.
