American Morality

[mongers]

The married men and women having affairs result is somewhat bizarre, I'm willing to bet that approaching if not exceeding 50% of married people commit adultery over the lifetime of a marriage, so perhaps 39% of respondents are hypocrites. 

I don't think just doing something you think is wrong makes you a hypocrite.

Aren't we all sinners, after all?

Well it's implied that the survey is about public morals, after all very few of us will ever get to clone animals, have an abortion (less so), have a same sex marriage, etc.

When cars are lined up in the turning lane, I think it is wrong to cut in line by driving to just before the turn and then cutting in front of someone not paying attention. I would even say so in a survey.

Tomorrow if I am running late, I will probably do that anyway.

Am I a hypocrite? (based on this info, not all my other posts  )

The better question to ask is, will you berate other people who do it to you, then we might know if you think you're a hypocrite or not.

There's nothing wrong with being a hypocrite.

It's my position that if you believe something is wrong, and yet you still do it, that just proves that you're a flawed human being.  If you're willing to acknowledge that it's wrong, even when it's you that does it, that doesn't make you a hypocrite. 

OK, Costanza.

  I thought this was going to be a thread about American Mortality, and that it would involve some actuarial tables.

Are you sad because you thought that, or because it wasn't?

I call that a successful weekend.

No mention of the animals but cloning? Can't be Brain!
