"The sewer of subjectivism"? Really Joseph? Are you saying that objectively? LOL! :-)

Subject: Re: Records Management Ethics
The following is my private opinion and NOT to be ascribed to my employer:
I rarely do this. But, for the sake of posterity, it may be needed. I assume, automatically, most people will disagree strongly, so be it. There used to be such thinking as is known as Natural Theology, classical (not modern) Natural Law, and even the old-fashioned Golden Rule, if nothing else. Decadence, as C.E.M. Joad had properly defined it, is "the loss of the object."
So, relativism, ethical and otherwise, reigns supreme. Yet, this nominalism in philosophy rots away ethical and moral thought, further and further, into the sewer of subjectivism, along with "do your own thing." Pontius Pilate, a committed postmodernist, by definition, in his forever famously open denial of truth, asked a question. Someone got crucified. Q. E. D.
So, for: "Who will be the judge? It's not black and white." To that, I just plainly say: BULLFEATHERS!

Thanks Lorinda for the posting and your comments. I guess if you are a records manager for the mob, it's pretty clear about ethics as well as morals. The rest of us are is a different compartment, making this judgment a lot more difficult. Should we leak records from a bank, insurance company, drug company, utility because we believe they are conducting unethical or immoral practices? Who will be the judge? It's not black and white.
