What if you witnessed, say, a woman killing a man? Are there circumstances under which you would concede it was, perhaps, expected for her to have done so? In other words, are there circumstances under which a reasonable person could commit such an act? For hundreds of years, the reasonable person has been advancing societies throughout the world. Whether through the setting of community standards or the application of laws, our reasonable person sets the tone for all that is better in humankind. In the 1300's, Dante Alighieri had a Roman poet, Virgil, guide him through an imagined afterlife. Humankind has come a long way since then. Instead of a poet, Adogma's guide is the reasonable person. Beginning with the possibility of a god or afterlife, our guide takes us through all the religions of humankind. Find out what such unusual circumstances yield. The text is quick, light, and the reasonable person facilitates the development of three principles that span both time and faiths.
