Morality

Indigestion is charged by God with enforcing morality on the stomach. - Victor Hugo



Wouldn't be nice if there were some other affliction which enforced morality in general? It used to be this was handled by the community. If you were immoral you were ostracized at best, hung by the neck at worst. This approach tended to keep folks in line. Today, with political correctness as it is, one is ostracized for stating a view ("What makes you think you are right?").
