Georges Bataille has always revolted me.  Much more than the Marquis de Sade. But then it struck me that it is a good idea to explore the following thought:  Given that any rationale anybody can come up with for morality is so weak, what if we were to adopt a frame of mind that knew nothing whatever of good or evil.  That looked dispassionately at what we know.  That would indeed be a useful point of view. Neither good nor bad.  Not of that.  Dispassionate.
