And we wonder why we're in the condition globally that we're in.

Two wrongs are purely and simply wrong and do not make a right, or even a

shade of gray of a right, unless of course you are trying to justify to

yourself that it is ok to do whatever you were doing that you knew was

wrong.

Why am I not surprised? ;-)

'Right' and 'Wrong' are not absolutes. Two people can be wrong, but

that doesn't mean that their errors are equal, and the fallacy is to claim

that since both are "wrong", they are equally valid explanations.
