    Which defeats the whole purpose of the test - it has to be done not out of fear of consequences but out of a sense of duty.

      This is basically the same as people that need their religion to define their morality.

        Yeah but they tend to be the worst. This is the same crowd that will be a raging cunt all week but once a week they go listen to a sermon and somehow that absolves them of being an ass the prior week.

      Completely agree with you! But that may be a bit idealistic at this point, to be honest, and it pains me to accept it, too, believe me! I’m starting to think more in the lines of “doing the best with what we’ve got,” and we ain’t got much…

      Edit: of course I was joking in my initial comment, just to dispel any potential uncertainty! But everything with its grain of truth and all that…
