I have come to the conclusion that hypothesis #3 (There are different times in which a moral life is a good one and is not) is the most accurate response to my question. This is because it is hard to be all good all the time, and happiness- I believe- is key to a good life. Doing good things makes you happy, and as Ben Sweetland said, “happiness is a journey, not a destination” and going against your morals to do risky stuff that make you happy in that moment. Conclusion :)
