The Butterflies and Wheels Taboo quiz:
Your Moralising Quotient is: 0.03.
Your Interference Factor is: 0.00.
Your Universalising Factor is: 0.00.
And after y'all take the quiz you can tell me that I'm just wrong.

Maybe that's the barrier to entry for this community. 0.03, 0, 0 here as well. Chicken anyone?

Should I be proud of this?

I guess I'm the judgemental one that figures if you, or even your entire culture, wants to burn in hell then who am I to stop you.

my numbers are 0,0,-1. I figure I fit into the "you can do whatever the heck you want if you aren't hurting anyone else" category.

Another 0,0,-1...
The only 'issue' I had was that I really didn't want to watch the guy fuck his chicken. But that's just a matter of taste...

"Fully permissive." My father in-law will feel so vindicated/irritated.

Indeed, ebradway... I wouldn't want to watch, but I'm sure as hell not going to obstruct his right to do it.

0.1, 0, 1. (I think it's at least arguable that breaking a promise weakens one's respect for promises in general, and is therefore at least likely to harm others eventually; I have a perhaps overly high regard for the tradition of truth-telling. I don't believe that enough to want the state to interfere, but I would be uncomfortable with someone that I knew had a tendency to do it. Similarly, it would bother me to see someone cleaning the bathroom with bits of a flag, but that's mostly for primitive arational reasons, and I don't think it's morally wrong).
I can't figure out what I did that got me the "1" in Universalization, though!

0.16, 0, and 1.
I have no problem with labeling the morals of a nation as "bad". That doesn't make me want to charge in and change them; it may affect whether I would ever visit the place or buy goods from there, but I would happily opine that it is stupid and bad.

.03, 0, and 0. I guess that's the kind of response that makes one comfortable around these parts! I thought it was "a little wrong" for the guy to break his deathbed promise, but I also think it was wrong of his mother to ask that of him (which wasn't a choice on the quiz).
We will not edit your comments. However, we may delete your comments, or cause them to be hidden behind another link, if we feel they detract from the conversation. Commercial plugs are fine, if they are relevant to the conversation, and if you don't try to pretend to be a consumer. Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
