Either Black Or White

 Tomght I seem entranced by definitions of the principle of moral and/or ontological moderation, as a fundamental law ruling the universe.

Here goes: it would seem that the willingness or inescapable penchant some people work under,  to divide the world and situations into neat, binding black-and-white categories, is typically now how things are. Things are often more nuanced than purely black or white, shades of gray being common and pervasive.

The, even where clear-cut circumstances do divide people, the world or ethical decisions into black and white categores, the corresponding action selected must be implemented with caution, mercy, prudence and reasonableness, in most instances.
