Ethics

It feels like forever since I have anything worth saying (quiet at the back those of you who are pointing out that I have never had anything useful to say.) Even now I'm mainly blogging to put of the study that I should be doing. I was very grumpy with it, it's all about ethics, and has been driving me up the wall, mainly as I just don't understand it. It feels like when I read things, that only something are ethically ok, but how do we without reference to something outside ourself come up with any code of ethics. My feeling happier about it, is that I am now reading a book which helps to address this. It was on our reading list so will be useful for the essay, but is also helping my brain which is always good. It explains how the different theories arose, and what came before them. As it is written by philosophy of religion lectures, it looks at how the different theories either accept the idea of God and what that means, or how the theories stand without God. I at least now feel like my personnel starting point is valid, no matter what I end up writing about in the essay.
In other news avoided cycling in to a marching bagpipe band, which was being followed by a procession of flaming torches, yesterday, but only just!
