[SEQ RERUN] Inner Goodness

Today’s post, Inner Goodness was originally published on 23 October 2008. A summary (taken from the LW wiki):

Goodness comes from inside you. Morality is not some sort of obligation weighing you down. It’s something you want.

Discuss the post here (rather than in the comments to the original post).

This post is part of the Rerunning the Sequences series, where we’ll be going through Eliezer Yudkowsky’s old posts in order so that people who are interested can (re-)read and discuss them. The previous post was Which Parts Are “Me”?, and you can use the sequence_reruns tag or rss feed to follow the rest of the series.

Sequence reruns are a community-driven effort. You can participate by re-reading the sequence post, discussing it here, posting the next day’s sequence reruns post, or summarizing forthcoming articles on the wiki. Go here for more details, or to have meta discussions about the Rerunning the Sequences series.

The second type was a whole ’nother story, so I’m skipping it for now.

Does anyone know what the second type was?
