I have my own set of thoughts on the matter, but I don't intend to criticize yours. I apologize if I come across that way.

@Nimda

No, I wouldn’t saying you’re conveying that attitude. I just had a hunch is all.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

I'm just here to listen.

@Nimda

Hm. But the fact remains that you do vehemently disagree.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

*Nods*
I see. Thank you for being so open with me.

@Nimda

No rebuttals? Counterpoints? Arguments? None of that?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

What's your code, if I may ask?

@Nimda

A sinple question of what I would and would not do. Taking a life, fine. Taking may lives, fine. Causing pain, fine. Going beyond that. Disrespecting people who are sacrificed for the cause, in any way... Betrayal of trust... Ruining someone’s existence for the long term, simply for the sake of doing it... These things are all things I avoid.

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

So if the end is unaffected by the means, anything goes?

@Nimda

That’s never entirely true, but yes. Beyond that you just follow your own code.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

Where do you draw the line?

@Nimda

Don’t let the means warp the system so much the the end no longer matters when you get there.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

What means do you think can be justified?

@Nimda

Anything practical. So anything that doesn’t come close to wiping out existence.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

The ends justifying the means?

@Nimda

Exactly. Nearly any means.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

I'm sorry?

@Nimda

Doing anything wrong for the sake of something right, to be short.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Intrepid>

What needs to be done that we won't do?

@Nimda

Many things, situationally depending. But no one really makes the hard decisions.
