In many cases, people will conveniently arrange their ideals to perpetuate what is base and comfortable (I know I have).  Gut feeling justifies laziness/procrastination.  Logic justifies elitism/cruelty.  Guilt becomes a redemptive substitute for taking responsibility, or truly shifting one’s habits.

This is natural-just the Ego at work.  Take advantage of it by studying, hunting, and subduing it.  You only get stronger.
