| Did Hitler and Stalin value their lives over others? Obviously these men knew their deeds of ending human life, but did they view it as evil? Morals enact organization and sanity, and generally among most people therefore aid in the ability to live life in nominal fear. Morals are what hold a society together. Otherwise, chaos would reign as the supreme �order�. In its wonderful quality, Hollywood on a seemingly small scale represented good with the commonly viewed Christian God for good and Satan (inversely commonly viewed as the Biblically bad guy) for evil. These were of course mentioned in the Bible, but not in the highly visual form today. All this has led to a subconscious belief in some people that God is still up there, but you can kill unborn (and even some newborn!) children. What was once considered evil is now to millions in the United States as common practice to relieve someone of possible humiliation or inconvenience. Indeed, there are numerous opposing millions who frequently rally against abortion (yes, I said it, they A-word). I personally abhor and do not support abortion at all. But the point remains underlying the situation: Morals are relative. So as Hitler conveyed to "his people" his stance of superiority and special rights for �the strong�, he was right, but only in his subjective thoughts. If Stalin would had even begun to threaten, or enact, murder in the streets of America profusely, he wouldn�t be hunting anyone except for the spot where Big Bubba doesn�t want to dance. Once morals within the majority of one society have been determined, they should and most likely will be implemented as standard law. The majority of humanity will continue to overrule the idea that murder (or anything else by the majority deemed immoral) is right. I�m not afraid yet. |
