By blindly following all laws we would still have slavery; holocaust would have become acceptable; etc...
We should follow ethics, not some texts.
- bcherny 9y agoThat is a dangerous attitude for a society. If we disagree with a law, we should change it. If we don't we breed a disregard for all laws, not just the ones we disagree with.
- zerr 9y ago> If we disagree with a law, we should change it. Agree, but that doesn't happen instantly. Changes come time by time, after occasional breaking unethical laws (while they are still active) - e.g. unlawful freeing of slaves, helping Jews during Nazi regime, etc... These are all examples of breaking unethical laws, which should happen and will happen.
