Could it not be the case that 'it' was being under thought, or not being thought about fully, completely, nor enough?
What you 'believe' or do 'not believe' is of no real concern nor importance here.
What is actually Truly important is that the 'mistake' word was used. AND, if 'mistake' was NOT what was MEANT, then I suggest finding and using ANOTHER word, instead.
Now, if you do not believe that 'mistake' was meant, then what do you think or believe was meant, instead?
LOL also is speaking of 'moral code violations' when what 'moral code obedience and/or observation' was highly unlikely even agreed with and by even just two of 'you', adult human beings, in the days when this is being written?

Re: there is no statue of limitations in morality
Have I got this right? A person could commit a crime and they would be responsible for restitution until they change for the better into a decent person. Is that consistent with what you’re saying?Advocate wrote: ↑Fri Sep 29, 2023 2:49 am You can only be responsible for the mistakes of the past to the extent you are the same person today. Part of overcoming past mistakes is present redress. If direct restitution isn't possible or counterproductive, less direct means are acceptable, but you must directly and explicitly accept it as a personal priority until that debt is more than satisfied.
