So it's the enjoyment of your life that is the standard, no matter the length? I can see that. How about if what you happen to enjoy upsets others? Or if what you enjoy is seen as deviant and made illegal, but you still enjoy it? In other words - is there any concept of 'right' or 'wrong' in your philosophy and, if so, how is it determined?


If all it's doing is upsetting them or deviates from their comfort level then no, I don't think there's anything wrong with that. If it's not physically hurting anyone else then why would it matter what you do to pass the time?

Let me help you out with this one, my fine Evolved brother.

Check it out: If we could kill someone, any person, and donate this one man's organs to five different people -- this would make a better overall society right? One for five seems like a pretty easy concept to grasp.

Now, on the other hand, imagine how you would live your life if at any moment your doctor could put you to sleep and vivisect you, would this be a better reality?

The fact of the matter is: We don't like living in societies where people can randomly die, to say that the end goal is happiness is folly -- it's more about avoiding suffering. It's easier for us to live in societies where the real threat of being raped, mutilated or killed at any moment and so that's what our choice is.

Why would it matter if you were physically hurting someone else? I mean, as long as you were getting pleasure by it, or it somehow helped you live a longer life?

Be honest, please. Why would it matter if your own pleasure or longevity was/is all that matters?
