Elevated Virtue

Seizing an opportunity to heighten one’s moral standing is not necessarily an act of banality, though it’s of note to the curious mind when one’s move to sanctity is accompanied with the most minimal of journey through reason.

Nevertheless, healthy skepticism must inquire whether one’s adoption of belief be for discounted virtue.

Not withstanding the call to contest the degree to which reason has been practiced or what quality of analysis applied in such reasoning, it bears legitimacy to question the acceptance that anyone’s proclamation of virtue be fundamentally forthright.

Given the reality of a constant negotiation through the human propensity towards the illusory, it becomes redundant, or even inadmissible, to swallow the suspicion of self agrandizement through qualification of reason alone.

If one is to pursue the matter with steadfast and compelling methodology, it may prove essential to ensure such measures include consideration of the degree to which personal sacrifice is incurred, or the range of psychosocial gain possibly afforded through the act itself.
