Quote

As an example of how perceptions can be deceiving., consider this boy who risks his own life to save his fellow villagers’ drowning fawn. Q: We would consider this a benevolent act right? Q: What if the boy had his eye on his neighbors faun for some time and this disaster was the perfect time to take it? Q: What if as we are clapping and cheering, the boy emerges from the flood and quickly runs off into the woods with his newly captured prize? Q: Would this not change the moral character and nature of this seemingly benevolent and heroic act? Once exposed for what it truly is it becomes blatantly outrageous.
