Physical Image > Morals
After watching "The Weight of the Nation" opened my eyes about our (Americans) everyday habits. We live in a weight challenged world, where social and physical image plays a big part in our live. Morally and Ethically we are conflicted if we should follow our morals and ethics, or go against what we know is "right" in order to boost our social image. The difficult part is what is "morally" right, when it comes to social image. Are steroids morally right? Is it unethical? We use them in order to improve our body to be "better" in the community. Is that an ethical way to improve muscle and physical body appearance? The baseball community and weight lifters may find steroids to be completely morally acceptable while some other folks may highly disagree.

I don't understand what you mean by this... it's so general. Can you elaborate on "Morally and Ethically we are conflicted if we should follow our morals and ethics, or go against what we know is "right" in order to boost our social image." You seem to contradict yourself when you say that baseball players and weightlifters think they are behaving ethically (you said morally, but I think you mean ethically)-- which means they think what they are doing is right. Your post needs to be clarified a little more, Kyle.
