Prometheus 6   

Do not make the mistake of thinking that because my conclusion is the same as another person's that my reasoning is the same

Morning rant

One day soon I'm going to look into what Technorati is doing.

I just spent the last hour or so reading law blogs. They interest me. I just wish . . . and it's the affirmative action discussion that brings this on . . . I wish people would realize that law isn't the same as morality. I can't say whether or not that's a Good ThingTM, but it is the case.

Law and morality are not the same thing. They are not equivalent, or even congruent. They are similar at best.

I also wish humans would reach their positions through rational examination of, and discourse on, the issues rather than holding off on reason until they need to defend their gut-level decision. Oh, yeah, and lotto. I wish I could win the lotto. And being struck by lightning two or three times in the next 15 minutes, that would be cool too.
