Random Thoughts.....What Are You Thinking?

No.


Hmmm


I only wanted to give an advice about giving an advice!

Soft paws I suppose.

I said "good idea", not "nice". Which is the term that you used, not I.

To me it is not a "ummm this is not nice" issue, but a "hmmmm this may affect me" issue. I don't use terms like "nice" or "good" as a base for decision making.

In other words, not a moral issue according to my definition of moral. Not sure if your definition of moral is different though.


If your advice only has the term "nice" or "good" involved, then it's not gonna work on me, lol. If you tell me I can make a lot of money by being nice, it would have work way better ;p.

Pushing one's own morals onto other people is the same as someone saying "be nice".

I don't think they are the same, lol.

I would push certain belief if I feel some belief or action may potentially affect my personal benefit in the future. I don't view it as moral issue though. Moral is only about good or bad, not necessarily a conflict with personal benefit.

(This is also why piracy is never a moral issue to me, but a money issue btw)

But maybe you have different definition on moral, idk.

Morals are inherently subjective. As is being nice/bad. They are not "the same", they are, however, both based on one's own definition of them.

At least we agree with this. That's why I normally don't care about other people's moral until I feel they may potentially affect my life. That's where I draw the line between act or don't act.

I owned several leather shops in the hippy years. I like working with leather and designing clothing and accessories.

Longest time I ever held one job was my last leather shop. I just couldn't figure out how to quit.

Nice didn't mean what it does now.

Origin

Middle English (in the sense ‘stupid’): from Old French, from Latin nescius ‘ignorant’, from nescire ‘not know’. Other early senses included ‘coy, reserved’, giving rise to ‘fastidious, scrupulous’: this led both to the sense ‘fine, subtle’ (regarded by some as the ‘correct’ sense), and to the main current senses.
