On my previews post, the last sentence read:
"On the other hand, there is a degree of difference between
thoughts and acts arising from the observer/doer and the
observed/thought."

Psychological stress is the degree of difference arising from the 
separation of the observer/doer and thought/judgement.
In the Spritzer case, society judge his conduct as immoral, a 
subjective thought subject to change.

In some society, prostitution is either moral or immoral. A case in 
point, between married couples, a wife or husband who married for money 
maybe considered normal/moral but when you think the same couple's 
intent, it is the same as a prostitute's goal [ a business 
transaction}. Under the US law a marriage is legal but during the time 
of the marriage when one of the couple forces his/her partner for sex 
causing physical and psychological stress/harm, the law considers it 
rape, an act which can be prosecuted and punished accordingly.

Therefore, judgemental acts are not universal truths.
