"I can't enjoy eating until there are no hungry children in Africa". Good intentions, not a healthy way to live in my opinion.
- brbrodude 6y agoI see what you mean. I mean, nobody should be expected to be always tuned in on this sort of stuff, much less so to, and this is something I specifically think is very wrong, to forget that whatever one may have learned, he was once ignorant of it that this is absolutely natural and normal and should be treated as such, inclusive to those that think they've gotten the absolute unquestionable knowledge. So, any kind of moralism is just bullshit to me, and this just goes back to the "charity gap" I meant. Ppl going overboard with sermons, that is completely misguided, I don't think that was specifically the case here but I know what you're talking about. To me this comes from insights I had from philosophy & stoicism, for the whole it's a much more complicated matter.
