The ethic is short and there is no penal apparatus behind it: harm no one, do not lie, use science rather than fear it, and take pleasure in the body without shame. There is no sin, no confession and no afterlife in which anything is settled, so the movement's moral pressure is entirely social. In practice it has taken public positions — for cloning, for genetically modified food, against nuclear weapons, for sexual and gender freedom — and it stages campaigns designed to be photographed. Members are candid that provocation is a recruitment method.
