The ring of Gyges is a part of Grerk mythology that philosophers use in discussions about morality and the nature of man.

Most are creeps and criminals.



I know this is slightly off topic, but I did not know about the Ring of Gyges. That is fascinating to me. I honestly think my answer would be no. I would feel immense amount of guilt even if were the only person aware of my crimes.
