given the choice ill take trying to defend myself from being beat up or robbed every time. its not a question of changing your morals to survive. its a question of teaching morals to the children so we can all survive in the furture. which brings this debate back to the beginning. point being..are morals important. i say they are for the "survival " as you put it of us all. imagine what a world this would be if everyone had morals and conducted themselves in a moral mannor. this thing got started by the question of morals. i think anyone who saw all the posts would agree that the more people who have morals and use them will make the intire world a better place for everyone to live. last thought..anyone who disagrees with that thought is part of the problem instead of the sulution. just my opinion.
