Centered VIRTU3

Doubt reigns in the center of VIRTU3-space. There are many circumstances where there just isn't enough information to make any judgments about a particular behavior. We might not know what someone intended, so it's hard/impossible to make a determination about their morality. We might not know who has what rights based on the full history of interactions, so ethical judgments might be conflicted or uncertain. It might be unclear what the full long-term results of any particular action are, so it can be unclear if the action is creative, destructive or somewhere in between.

The center is, in my opinion, where all of us are born. Each of us may, based on in-born temperament, be more attracted to some part of VIRTU3-space. Temperament aside, most of us are ready and able to learn and follow the particular morals, ethics and expectations of our societies. A free society is one where a wider variety of temperaments can find full expression. A restrictive society is one where little or no accommodation for personal temperament is made.
