I'm sure this has been asked before, but are there shades of gray?
This is an odd either or question, and the duality is not perfect, but the question is divided up into two near-absolutes:
There are shades of gray to nearly everything. We live in a complex world, and there are few, if any things that are black and white. This moral ambiguosity is an inherant part of existence.
There are never shades of gray. We live in a world that must be divided up into white and black. Uncertainty is simply an error in the eye of the beholder.
Of course, I realize that there are people who disagree with both sides of this duality, and to them I would simply point out that you need not answer the poll.
