I do in a way.

Let's look at recent threads about gay rights. Those who are for gay marriage believe that they are in the right and therefore better people than those that are against gay marriage.

We all feel that our ethics are the right ones. We all feel that if we have decided ethically that A is the right choice, we thing our choice is better than someone who has chosen B. We feel that we are more ethical than the person that has chosen B. And I think that's okay. I think someone who believes that gays should be able to marry ARE more ethical than those that think gay marriage should be banned.

What I think gets people's dander's up is when someone pushes their ethical beliefs on others. I didn't start this thread. I don't bring up my vegetarianism unless someone else brings the subject up. I live my life and let others live theirs and decide what is right and wrong for themselves. However, WHEN THE TOPIC COMES UP, I'll discuss the reasonings behind those beliefs.
