" -- absolute faith in one's own virtue is not a commitment to virtuous behavior but a commitment to one's own will. ."

Fanatics about "virtue" are found at every political level,left/right/center.

Fanaticism itself is the real evil, imo. -- Being overzealous for most ANY cause can lead to disaster.

Of course there is nothing wrong with a commitment to ones own will.

But it is quite delusional to have "absolute faith in one's own virtue."






How true bobbyjack.. Once again you have awed us all with the triumph of your will.

Lord but, - it must be great to be you!

Thanks for proving my point.

Nice play on Triumph of the Will. It appears to be your favorite movie.
