      @featherflow Man, so tempted to get into a debate on what's good but I know I have to restrain myself due to lack of time.

         @nerthos well you know as they say: the matter of good, becomes more and more the matter of evil.

            @featherflow The exact definition of good is entirely dependant of the evil that's present. Good in a place rid with sadistic criminals is not the same as good in a calm rural town full of working people.

               @nerthos the deffinition is not very important, in fact, it is more important our ethic. goodness WAS for and with the other.

                  @featherflow @snowcone No, actually, I'm talking about good as a concept, not good through the morality and ethics of each human. The former is a variable defined by context that is always compatible with itself in all other iterations. The latter can range from top tier to utmost evil.

      @snowcone what you are saying is called "extreme relativism". what can be seen as good for one person can be seen evil for other.

      @awlderpy I'd love to get into a long debate about it later. Tomorrow or whenever we both have the time.
