The Virgin Mills v. The Chad Carlyle

"The creed which accepts as the foundation of morals, Utility, or the Greatest Explosion Principle, holds that actions are right in proportion as they tend to promote PP Explosions, wrong as they tend to produce Celibacy. By PP Explosions is intended pleasure, and the absence of pain; by Celibacy, pain, and the privation of pleasure. To give a clear view of the moral standard set up by the theory, much more requires to be said; in particular, what things it includes in the ideas of pain and pleasure; and to what extent this is left an open question.

2. Moral evil is unattainability of the PP's explosions; moral good, attainability of ditto.
3. What is Paradise, or the State of Innocence?" Paradise, called also State of Innocence, Age of Gold, and other names, was (according to PP’s of weak judgment) unlimited
attainability of PP Explosions; perfect fulfilment of one's PP-Feel-Good, so that the PP's imagination could not outrun reality: a fable and an impossibility, as PP’s of sense now see.
4. "Define the Whole Duty of PP’s." It is the mission of universal Explosion-hood, and the duty of all PP’s, at all times, to diminish the quantity of unattainable Brap-hogs and increase that of attainable Big-PP-Hog-Explosion. All knowledge and device and effort ought to be directed thither and thither only; PP Science, PP Enthusiasm and Devotion have this one aim. It is the Whole Duty of PP-Explosionism.
