Koan #16: Modern Man's Moral Merit

It is a sick truism of modern man’s current culture, that he has more qualms about boiling such a thing as a lobster than tearing apart the body of an unborn human being, which indicates much of his moral stature and cultural worth. Yet the hope is that he shall soon correct his ways, lest nature and God do so for him.

  1. I've brought this point up with my friends who suscribe to this ethical philosophy - that I'm suprised their brains don't short circuit out from the cognitive dissonance, the result was their becoming defensive and personally accusatory.

  2. The latter part of your statement is particularly poignant. It almost seems like the Natural Law written on their heart is trying to push out through all the moral junk that they have stuffed in front of it.
