Religion & Ethics: Content from Across the ABC




Date/Time 19 Feb 2017 11:25:59pm
A hero is just someone prepared to risk life and limb for a cause, but the worthiness of most causes depend on one's perspective. A moral hero is just someone who knows right from wrong (an absolute cause) and is brave enough to speak up, often at their own peril as society's mores shift around them. Schindler was an example of this, with many more anonymously lost to recorded history I'm afraid. Toni Hoffman is a contemporary example. I respect most those who can see right from wrong without needing the "moral compass" of a religion.
