The Titanian Code of Ethics, also known as the Titanian Code of Honor,

is a set of four simple affirmations containing the most prominent logical consequences of the Titanian Ethic. These affirmations and a brief explanation of each are shown below. I strongly suggest that you learn and honor this code.

• We do no harm.
• We do good at every opportunity.
• The CODE always applies – no exceptions
• Everyone knows the CODE.DEFINITIONS:
• An act is good if it increases creativity, or any of its logical equivalents, for at least one person, including the person acting, without limiting or diminishing creativity for anyone.
• Logical equivalents of creativity include: love, awareness, evolution, the availability of objectively true information to ethical persons, and possibly many other resources.
• A second set of creativity-enhancing resources are sometimes necessary, often helpful, and never sufficient, for the maximization of creativity; however they are not logical equivalents of creativity and their maximization in lieu of creativity can result in unethical outcomes. These resources include, but are not limited to: freedom, privacy, honesty, empathy, conscience, energy, wealth, profit, and even happiness.EXPLANATIONS: Logical Consequences of the Above Definitions
• We never attempt to achieve ethical ends by unethical means.
• We never lie – except in self-defense, in which case lying may be mandatory.
• We never coerce – except in self-defense.
• We never steal, destroy, limit, or diminish anyone’s physical, tangible, mental, intellectual, temporal, or emotional resources.
• We never invade another’s privacy.
• We never excuse our own ethical lapses.
• We never destroy, limit, or avoid corrective feedback.
• We never attempt to delegate authority that we do not possess as individuals.
• We never employ “majority rule”.
• We never perform (act) as a group in a way that would be unethical if performed by an individual.
• We never support, nurture, or augment the abilities of anyone whose actions are predatory, parasitic, or generally unethical. Nor do we permit such acts when presented with a choice in the matter.
• We never obey rules/”laws” that forbid ethical behavior or require unethical behavior.
• We always seek to maximize creativity, love, awareness, personal evolution, and their logical equivalents above all else and at every opportunity.
• We commit to those actions which fulfill this mission.
• We commit to using only those means which are ethical ends in themselves.
• At every opportunity we help and augment the freedom, independence, autonomy, privacy, knowledge, courage, and other creativity-enhancing resources of those whom we trust to act in accordance with the CODE.
• We ask for and accept the help of others.
• We ask for and accept the corrective feedback available from others.
• We offer our own corrective feedback to others, especially where ethical decision-making is concerned.
• We augment one another’s strengths and compensate for one another’s weaknesses.
• We maintain security and confidentiality.
• We celebrate all individual and group success.
• We share expenses and profits as agreed.
