Drinking some wine is a normal part of life in many countries which do not have water which is safe to drink. The alcoholic who regularly drinks five quarts of wine each day --- is not engaged a normal pattern of behavior. Many isolated actions can be normal within some contexts, but quite abnormal within other contexts. How we budget our available time is a more significant indicator of our character --- than is whether or not we engage in some isolated action which is legal and not objectionable in normal circumstances. How we set priorities is more important than how we spend our time at some particular hour on a particular day --- so long as the action during that hour is legal and not harmful/objectionable in and of itself. Whether an action merits our respect, honor and support often depends upon the pattern of behaviors within which the action occurs. It is irresponsible to systematically ignore the significance of the contexts of actions. Such neglect is a pattern which does not merit our honor, respect or support. (c) 2005 by Paul A.
