Moral Dilemma...... (94)
kielybear: Well firstly,can we leave the 'christian' element out of this,as not everyone here is a practicing christian.I asked the question,would i allow myself to become close to the person? i couldn't answer that.You don't know me and for all you know i could be working for trocaire.....so you can get right off your high horse.
now look who is losing their temper cause someone else wouldnt agree with him.
if you are not a practisin christain of soem sort, why bother go to the funeral of your friend, surely that goes against everything you stand for.
Trealach01: What a pathetic selfish thought that is! It seems to me you're taking a very self-centered approach to this. So far your responses have all been about YOU - the hurt YOU might feel and the Risk YOU might be taking. There is not one scintilla of 'charity', 'love' or 'understanding' of, or for, the other person. You might want to review those things, before even considering entering a relationship with a healthy person, because, God forbid, YOU may be the unhealthy one being left alone. How do you know you'll outlive the other person, you don't - but wouldn't it be charitable, christian and loving to have made the other persons life happy, for whatever time they have left? It certainly would be the unselfish thing to do.
youve seen the flaw that had my spidey sense tingling
its rhubarb
hes a humanitarean that lad
Neenaw: ok, i bow out here, cause i find this absolute rubbish, so as he dying from leukemia, i presume he was morphed out, he was still giving her "8 inches of paddypole"....are you for real
listen kiely, i think you embellish stuff, and so now before i actually lose my temper, i will bow out.
I find this last comment completly distasteful and think you made it up, which is worse.goodbye.

Although I think I understanding your point, I also think I wouldnt care to be the ill person thinking that the person I loved was only staying with me because of Christian charity. Love, when it is present, precludes any basic duty. I would prefer is someone stayed with me because they wanted to not because they "should".

If he was humanitarian, the question wouldn't have posed a 'moral dilemma' in the first place.

Couldn't agree more
Trealach01: If he was humanitarian, the question wouldn't have posed a 'moral dilemma' in the first place.
LadyBlackAdder: The only way to minimise hurt and pain in your life is to actually feel it and not deny it. Try it - it really works. It feels crap to begin with but there's nothing like it in the end.
As for the subject of the thread...I would make the most of the time I had with a special person and risk the pain. 'Tis better to have loved and lost than never loved at all. Corny I know but, for me, its true.

well said

Excluding the 'christian element' is the basis of your moral dilemma - hence your self-centred approach. "Working for trocaire" does not in itself establish one as a christian.
L1977C: I think when life has dealt out some rough times to you ... you learn and appreciate the good things in life even if you only have them for a short while..
Neenaw: era im a girl, i can change my mind.
You seem to change things to suit yourself, i for one think you are telling lies, or embellishing the truth to make you seem all like sensitive, and when people disagree, you take offence and get nasty, why post a thread if you are not open to criticisim from all angles.
This sensitive stuff does get boring Kiely, my advice is to grow a pair, walk to the shop and buy an ounce of cop-on.
Unlike you, I actually do meet friends off of here, and I am sure they will vouch for me, honesty is always the best policy.
Best wishes for your future

ive only 6 months to live

just blame me when the cops come calling
ladylumps: Well at least you would know the end is coming and could make the most of every day you had together. How many people take each other and their relationships for granted and any day could be our last we never know. The person with the terminal illness could easily out live the other
Go for it would be my opinion

do you always "freakout" when other people do not take your side.
Maybe this is why you are alone. You are angry!

I never suggested or implied there was an 'obligation'. I said "There is not one scintilla of 'charity', 'love' or 'understanding' of, or for, the other person."
