Be honest: if you had the power to stop time, your morals would go out the window.
Pretty much the title. I've been watching more realistic super hero shows like The Boys and Invincible. The reoccurring themes is that with great power comes great immorality.
I think it's easy for us normies to respect other people and their property because there are clear consequences for violating social norms. But what would the average person do if they had super powers?

I would certainly have alot of fun, but i wouldn't feel comfortable in hurting others, with or without their knowledge. But that's just me...
Yes. And i actually believe most people would not harm others. I believe people hurt others because of fear and superstition. If you are in the priviliged position to feel empathy you would feel disgusted when hurting human beings. Becomming a god might even make you more empatic, because you dont have to struggle to survive.
I would also like to believe most human beings are good people.
