i think many of us know about emperor Asoka.he was behind the war of Kalinga. He wanted to achieve the end, i.e to extend his territory and conquer Kalinga and he did succeed. But what happened after the war? He realized that the end was not worth the means by which it was achieved. He repented for what he did and today, he is one of the most remembered kings in history of India. Even though he killed so many people during the war, he is remembered for his repentance after it as he learned that the "means" wasn't correct.

nowadays, there is cut throat competition and parents and teachers are pressurizing students to score good marks in the exams.that is our "end". if that is all that matters then why are there invigilators in the exam halls to check the "means" that the students adopt to write the exam? why are so many students expelled from schools and colleges just because they used unfair "means"?
Hitler wanted Aryans to propagate and rule. in that process, he killed millions of jews. he might have been supported by a lot of people, but now whenever we think of Hitler, all that comes in our minds are the atrocities that he committed.he might have achieved his "end"(propagation of Aryans) to some extent, but the means that he used for it don't justify his actions and end.
Hi angels!
I had sent you an ally request and i am disappointed that you didn't take any note of it!
I have to sleep sometime ;)
I may have left the computer on and logged in to CD.
Just say that the means are more important than the end. For example, if you wanted to reduce the number of drivers on the road in order to alleviate global warming, you could kill all the drivers and achieve your end. but I think that most people would agree that the means of achieving that end sucks. Therefore, the means are more important because it cannot be discarded. The means are the requirements.
Yeah, just say that every rich person on the planet is greedy and that they will only do that which benefits them.
Sure, just say that smart people are able to accumulate wealth and will build roads that (not only benefits them but also) benefits other people. But they will not waste their money on building roads to slums because there's no money to be made there and they are not under any obligation to provide their time, energy and money for the poor. Everybody talks about the "rights" of the needy but no one talks about the "rights" of the able bodies.
