Does there exist an absolute moralcode that we must all follow, or is it up to each of us to decide what is right and what isn't?

I think I understand what you're saying: we can only truly know this way of being through inner inspection, and thus arguing about it will not reveal the answer.

Thanks to everyone responding. This "absolute way of being", is it different for each person?

Yeah, fixed and eternal. Thanks for the interesting link!

Hello, bums. Was quite confused when I joined up but couldn't start or comment on topics. Turned out you just had to write here.

Thanks! By the way, which language is "Namaste" from?

Well I think you got some pretty good tv shows (Boardwalk Empire, Sons of Anarchy, Hell on Wheels.) But on the topic of war: I think it's more or less human nature, and that the best we can do is fight it as honourable as we can (no civilian kills, no looting etc) as to minimize the damage.

Yay, someones mentions my country! Just some comments: When WW1 and WW2 was going on, Sweden was a christian nation. Nearly everyone at that time was christian. Also, we have at the moment troops positioned in Afghanistan, and if I remember correctly, we sent planes to combat in Libya, so I think it's wrong to say Sweden hasn't been in war for 200 years. And crime is more or less on the rise. Sure, compared to Rio de Janeiro it's quite peaceful, but it's no Shangri La. Actually far from it.
