I take exception to the idea that the legal choice implies it being the moral one. Legality seems to me to be more of the bare minimum expectations and actively avoiding doing the wrong thing (don't kill people) rather than doing the right thing.
- Etherlord87 4y agoIf legality is supposed to be based on morals (not sure how many people agree with this?) then wouldn't basing morals on the law be a circular reference?
- SketchySeaBeast 4y agoThat's what I'm arguing against - legality isn't morals, but the original quote: > Implied legal (and moral) liabilities made a difference in my choices. Serves to muddy the two. I'm saying if we want to consider the moral option the legal isn't relevant.
