Although I would like to think that if someone is speaking
to the public in an open forum, that they are morally good, and ethically
sound, but I know this is just not true in all forums. I think there are people in the world (mostly
politicians) who need to be condemned to caves, or other locations that seclude
them from the general public. I understand the 1st Amendment right to free
speech, but if the only thing that comes out of the speakers mouth is horse
pucky and garbage than what's the point.
I think that there are plenty of orators out there in the world trying
to make the world a better place that the ones that are out there to fill
people's heads with rubbish need to be silenced.
I also believe that for a person to be able to make a reasonable
and rational decision they need to be educated on a subject in a truthful manor;
not a one sided, half truth, emotionally heart wrenching, but probably
believable as the whole story, education.
If a speaker is confident and quick on their feet with the
"right" answer, it is not that hard to fool an uneducated
person.
So, morally good is in the eye of the audience. I can hope for this to be a fact, but unfortunately
I know it to be false. In today's society all that one needs to be an orator is
a "believable" story and enough uneducated people backing them to
convince others that the orators "story" is true.
