Default Re: Yet Another \"Axiom\" Question

[ QUOTE ]
no, it's the 'cultural obligation' that makes you unhappy (guilty) when you choose not to help.

[/ QUOTE ]

No, I don't think guilt covers it. Humans have an extraordinary ability to rationalize their actions. In the example I gave, I think many who would help the Aunt would truly be happier if they left her to the Charity Ward, and probably know this when they make the decision to help.
