Quote:
What makes us human? It is the ability to override exploitative instinct with moral consciousness. It is having the wisdom to protect innocence and not prey upon it. The reason we have laws is because many people have neither the moral consciousness nor wisdom to do what is right. I mention the legal thresholds because they are a somewhat arbitrary dividing line intended to define our morality, yet vary widely between States and countries. You can't legislate morality. The mere absence of law does not make it right. One must measure their actions against a higher morality, not simply follow law.
