I guess I don't think that

I guess I don't think that morality and Ethics are synonymous and that distinctions are useful. I see Ethics as coming into being through the Other. Ethics exists because there are others. It's sort of a radical interpretation of the Social Contract which is partially influenced by Levinas. I haven't quite parcelled it out and that probably doesn't explain very much, but, I guess I think it is the case that the state of affairs is that Ethics do exist and that people shouldn't be opposed to this. I ought to have a clearer way of explaining this as I am suggesting that Ethics are relevant, but, I have a lot of theory to read before I can do that.

I guess I do think that there are both Ethical and strategic problems with violent revolution which is, in part, what makes my political philosophy Anarcho-Pacifism and not just simply libertarian Socialism or Anarchism.

This isn't terribly relevant to this, but, while I don't necessarily agree with Nietzsche, I do sort of incoroporate the Transvaluation of All Values into my philosophy. I have a fairly complex understanding of Nietzsche.

As much as it detracts from philosophies of faith, I do make a distinction between Ethics and Morality, and, do generally regard Morality as being somewhat negative. I should like not to be so critical of faith and spirituality, but,I, ultimately, just honestly am.

I'm guess what I'm trying to get at is that I don't agree for complex reasons which I am not doing a very good job of explaining because I haven't quite sorted them out myself yet.
