Reply #3: Do "the right thing" [View All]

[TahitiNut]

It's NOT about whether (you think) it'll 'work' or not - it's about whether it's the "right thing" to do. Congresscritter an outright fascist? Write anyway. Don't think your vote is counted? Vote anyway - absentee, if you can.

As human beings with heart, we're far better at choosing to do the "right thing" than predicting the future. Doing the "right thing" is our job; the future is God's job. When we're deluded into taking on the latter job, we're less able to to our own job.

"So act as though you were through your maxims a law-making member of a kingdom of ends." - Immanuel Kant
