Another saying is "the road to hell is paved with good intentions."
Fortunately for us this phrase is not biblical or there would be no one to go to heaven.

The oath that doctors take says first do no harm. Your slogan is silly. I have a hole in the roof of my kitchen because some Bobo thougt that an empty coke bottle would suffice for a light! Don't at all, just for a leak in the roof. But he was following your farther's advice. Now if the Bobo would come back and repair the roof here and who knows how many more around town!

Ok, back to Ken's postive post.
Anna & Chip & Ken,
I'm going to play devil's advocate here because, well, i've got a few minutes to kill before i go to work. ............

Hi Frank, I hope all goes well.
But since I don't see you at the gym anymore I will have to ask here. All these long thread starters and posts like this one that we have seen lately, are they the equivalent of an off-Broadway try out of your book?
Here's a fascinating, thought-provoking article in today's New York Times regarding religion: Does It Matter Whether God Exists? - NYTimes.com

This guy is all over the place and presents his tentativeness as insight. I can't believe he is teaching philosophy at Notre Dame.
Funny, that's how I interpreted the article.
I'm still waiting for someone to explain to me why humans are so worried about right and wrong. Why when no other animals care?
BTW, this should really go in the other thread.
Hey, hey, hey. You fail to mention the thousands upon thousands of dollars DR1ers donated to build the dental clinic in Puerto Plata. I guess Alberto is a little busy for an update at the present time.Thanks Ken for pointing out the great and positive work these missionaries.
The fact is these groups do far more than anyone here on DR1 so it's honestly hypocritical to say the least the constant criticism these groups are subject to because of an occasional bad apple or for being "annoying".
How do you know no other animals are conscious of right and wrong.

Some animals appear to have certain traits, but that hardly explains the very wide depth of difference between their "perceived" morality and humans. That's a very large leap that has no precedent.
