As I said in a previous post I believe "the end ALWAYS justifies the
means" is one of the 3 stupidest debates in all of Philosophy, the
second is "the end NEVER justifies the means" and the third is "Man
has free will". The first two ideas are just comically wrong, the
third idea is so bad it's not even wrong.

If I think there are 140 degrees in a triangle then I am wrong but not
evil; if I commit murder because I think there is nothing wrong with
murder then I am wrong and evil.
