Moral Relativism

I went to see Prince Caspian tonight.

The movie, in my opinion, is definitely worth a watch. As expected, the Christian themes are out in force, but I feel like the movie has a lot to say about choice, pride, and all the usual feel-good American values, that it’s valuable entirely apart from that.

My room-mate did not agree. An hour later, I’ve learned something new about my room-mate - that he’s a moral objectivist - and had another of those discussions that I just know I’m going to miss after college.

This link certainly is interesting.

Comments later… Job Search = Death for the moment.

*Update*

This article should be titled: “Well-meaning if inappropriate joke met with typical right-wing conservative ‘creativity’!” Don’t get me wrong - I love the Christian Right as much as the next guy; I mean, how else would I get my daily dose of laughter? But this is ridiculous. You just know some southern lawyer felt god had “asked him to step up and defend his name” or some such bullshit. That or someone equally “clever” (not necessarily right-wing, conservative, OR Christian) thought it’d be funny to add a tongue-in-cheek reply. Either way - the response misses the point of the message. Probably cost the system money in filing costs and getting the whole mess dismissed. Good job, whoever. Well done.
