Is there a basic ethic course in NZ schools?
Some of the teachers who frequent these parts could comment, but I believe the answer is still no. Well, until students decide to become engineers or doctors. Those pursuing careers in finance or politics, maybe never.

Fortunately I feel no obligation to admire arrogance.
Once again, a response thinking my original blog post, in my own context, should fit in with your discussion here.
No, thinking it should fit into a human conversation anywhere. You'd get a similar response to that tone from many people in any cafe. Your "context" on a public blog is not the same as a chat amongst friendly fellow practitioners/cynics at a private party.
Having said that, do argue however you want to. This is not an academic setting where citations are expected for every statement.
However, this site makes a big deal of being, and I wish I had the energy to find a direct quote, a forum for the considered and non-contentious exchange of ideas.
Excuse me if I express the opinion that, being dragged into this forum, I did not find it so.
Non-contentious? Open your eyes, man. There's the expectation mismatch right there.
