Morality

I've begun to believe that being a moral person is simply a matter of believing that we should try to make the world a better place... and acting accordingly. The idea that the world is inherently just and that people get what they deserve, is in my opinion a cop-out. A refusal to accept responsibility for the power we possess. Much of a person's behavior is shaped by the culture they grow up in and the people around them. That culture is shaped by us, and influence is a two way street. While those we are with affect us, we in turn affect those we are with.
