[Philosophy] ETHICS

[Shard] - Sosaria
[Type] - Philosophy
[Book] - Red 20 pages

[Title] - ETHICS
[Author] -

[Page 1]
The Ethical Man
obtains his strength
through Ethics.
Hence, he is stronger
as well as more
daring. The Ethical
Man would risk his
life to save another

[Page 2]
man's life. On the
topic of Wealth and
Ethics: To be truly
ethical, thou shouldst
reject Wealth. Wealth
corrupts the soul. It
doth do so by placing a
greater value upon

[Page 3]
goods and material
possessions rather
than upon the "anima",
that is the living
matter or spiritual
matter. Spiritual
kinship should be
established as early

[Page 4]
as possible instead of
the numerous
tentative efforts by
parents and the
various communities
to establish a Wealth
kinship.



[Page 5]
Believing thou
shouldst abide by
rules of conduct,
learning well and
being of good rule and
disposition are what
will make an ethical
Man of thee. Wealth

[Page 6]
turns too many men
away from rules of
conduct. Quickly
enough, young men
like thee become
wastrels and haunters
of alehouses, thereby
losing their temporary

[Page 7]
possession, Wealth,
but above all losing
their richest dowry,
their only true
wealth, their soul.
Ethics will prevent
thee from following
that path. Reject

[Page 8]
Wealth, my dear
reader and most
assured brother, and
be truly ethical. I hope
I have convinced thee,
for if so, I have saved
thee.


[Page 9]
Never, NEVER,
surrender to thine
enemies. Fight to the
death, but do not
abandon thine Ethics.
The serpent of gold
can send thee along the
path to knowledge, but

[Page 10]
only if balanced by
wisdom. Thou mayest
already have felt the
ill fortune brought
about by wealth
without wisdom; now
use thy newfound
wisdom to balance the

[Page 11]
power of gold.
