BluffThis and Chezlaw's Weird Philosophical Contortions

Don't think I can agree that in extreme circumstances like war that its never worth killing innocents but war is a breakdown of ethics anyway.

Ethics are ethics. If you want to compromise them in instances like war, why not compromise them out of convenience?



(There is a difference between allowing the killing of innocents and unintentional accidents that might happen during the course of war. For example, a hero soldier/sniper sets his aim at a villain target and someone bumps his elbow and he misses and a woman walking down the street gets the bullet. Oh well, such is life as Kurt V says.)
