What's morally bankrupt? And what do you mean by stipulations? Please elaborate.

Assassination is the tool of the weak and the simple.

Is morality not subjective...?


It isn't, objectively.

Quote (JessiWan @ Mar 2 2022 11:31pm)
It could be someone who's, say, committing genocide. Or maybe he could push a button and blow up the entire world. Or maybe you think he's the next Hitler. Whatever. Do you think it's ok to assassinate a nation's leader?

Just want to see if the moral compasses of members here are broken or not.


A difficult moral question. Is it moral? Is this battle worth fighting? Will it give the best results given the complicated situation at hand? Are there better alternatives?

Are you talking about the Ukraine situation and the immorality of Putin?

The Bible seeks to leave war and violence as the last alternative after all other alternatives have been exhausted. Maybe it is right.
