    That person would not be immoral to do what he needs to survive.

    i believe that morality is in the action itself. if it’s immoral to kill animals, then some potential benefit doesn’t make it moral.

    you should be clear that you are only espousing your own moral system here, and not some universal truth.

      I don’t agree. Morality is in its own context. There is no objective morality and no action is always good or always bad. At the end of the day, killing someone for your own gain is immoral, but only if you have that choice. If you do not have a choice, there is no morality to argue with. You can argue about whether you truly have a choice or not.

        i’m sure you can see how your stance can be horrifying for people who believe in deontological ethics.
