People seem to have stopped believing in absolutes. Everything is relative. Situational ethics. Situational ethics takes into account the particular context of an act when evaluating it ethically, rather than judging it according to absolute moral standards. How you react depends on the situation at that moment. SO, a right may be wrong, or a wrong may be right, depending on the circumstances around you. Hence, drinking (alcohol) may be wrong if you are at home, but might be right if it is a business environment and your boss/client is around. Right? Wrong??

Each morning, I start off to work from VT - Victoria Terminus -  (now renamed the Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (CST), by suburban train. For this  I HAVE to go the beautiful building shown in this post. This is a non-negotiable absolute. Unfortunately for me, the train does not start from the YMCA on Mondays, the Gateway on other days, Juhu Beach on Tuesday etc. It is VT and only VT. Non negotiable.

Some of God's laws are also absolute. Not negotiable. So adultery is wrong, what ever the circumstances are. So is bribery,  theft, and a list of others.  Agree madi??? Your comments please!

 

P.S. Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (CST), formerly Victoria Terminus (VT), is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and an historic railway station in Mumbai, India which serves as the headquarters of the Central Railways. Designed by Frederick William Stevens with influences from Victorian Italianate Gothic Revival architecture and traditional Mughal buildings, the station was built in 1887 in the Bori Bunder area of Bombay to commemorate the Golden Jubilee of Queen Victoria. The new railway station was built on the location of the Bori Bunder Station and is the busiest railway station in India, serving as a terminal for both long-distance trains and commuter trains of the Mumbai Suburban Railway. The station's name was changed to its present one in March 1996 and it is now known simply as CST (Source: Wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chhatrapati_Shivaji_Terminus)
