"A moral choice in its basic terms appears to be a choice that favors survival: a choice made in favor of life."

Previous Quote

We human beings do have some genuine freedom of choice and therefore some effective control over our own destinies. I am not a determinist. But I also believe that the decisive choice is seldom the latest choice in the series. More often than not, it will turn out to be some choice made relatively far back in the past.
