Greetings,

JONATHAN:
>So how about it folks:- "Morality is realization of potential".

My immediate thought here is that Hitler realised his potential to a
great extent in the final solution and also in the creation of a master
race. An atomic bomb realised its potential on Hiroshima. Were these
then 'moral' acts.

I think I understand your point here Jonathan, but are you not in danger
of following Ken in splitting human morality from the morality of the
universe and if so, does this not trouble you? I repeat again my
conviction that if human morality is reduced to individual desire then
the MoQ has little practical worth regardless of its metaphysical
veracity.

Theo
