It would be a bit arrogant to suggest that I have Godly powers of this kind. I think the bible says something about humility somewhere...

Packers: so how do you decide what to do in a moral situation? wait until someone comes to bail you out? I did not say a judge of absolute good and evil. I judge good and evil in my daily life, constantly.

Oh! I think the general populace missed that nuance Vynce as evidenced by the voting pattern. If you used the term 'personal judgement' it may have been understood better.

did you read the tags? if people missed the nuance, they weren't reading the context. see the inspiring comment.

I try not to get too much of my meaning from claim tags as they're editable, but I think anyone should have been able to spot the "a" in there.

I judge constantly for myself what is good and evil, but I think the phrase "am the judge of good an evil" has a different meaning. Because I still believe in moral ambiguity.

YOu're right. somehow I thought he was saying something else. It was late I was tired.

kay. thanks.

i do wonder how many other people are disagreeing only because they miss my nuances of pedantry. given the totals in the inspired claim (10-0 Ultimately, my opinion of good and evil must be the one I follow), I'm guessing quite a few.

Some people may not see having a personal definition of good and evil as being a judge of it. Some people think that their sense of morality comes from elsewhere.

Just a thought, but I think you're probably right.
