So morals and ethics aside, is raping your sister really such a bad idea?

[/ QUOTE ]

Just think of the sexual satisfaction boon it would produce for other Americans.

(The point of this remark is that of course putting morals and ethics aside a lot of awful actions can be justified. Such a question is ridiculous -- you are saying if we put aside morals and ethics, is murdering innocents to pad our wallets really a bad idea?)

[/ QUOTE ]

Why does that make the question ridiculous? Have not many nations and tribes done exactly that throughout history?

A related question: how deep do you think the veneer of civilization and morals really is?

[/ QUOTE ]

What is your point? Morals and ethics aside, you can justify war? Whoopdefreakingdoo. I can do the same and justify raping your daughter. What's your point?

[/ QUOTE ]

Throughout history many wars have been enacted almost entirely for gain, morals and ethics aside. What makes you think that couldn't happen today, and with the USA? Tweak conditions a bit and I'll bet it could happen, though when nations wage war usually some excuse goes along with it.
