Is it possible to change your individual morals and ethics? If so, where do you start?

People can also learn and grow, changing their moral code and ethics along the way.

Salesmen have been researching and studying persuasion for more or less the last 6,000 years.

MadMordigan, that sounds like something a YECer would say.
 Weren't there any salesman before then? On what day of creation were salesmen created - the same one as biting flies and other pests? I see a difficulty in determining if someone has truly changed their morality, or just their behavior. They might be caving in to outside pressures and modifying their behavior, while still believing in the same moral precepts. cheers, Michael |
