No moral code
« My girlfriend is so annoying, » he said. « She keeps asking me if she's a bad person for thinking this or that. » He whined mockingly, « “Does it make me a bad person if I don't care about hurricane victims?” So I just shrug and say I don't know. »
« What you should do, » I said, « is, no matter what she says, to tell her that she is, in fact, a horrible person for thinking whatever it is that she is thinking. »
« No, » she barked, shooting me a disapproving look. « You should always tell her that she's not a bad person. »
I was disappointed. I wonder if she and her husband lie to each other regularly.
