			== Moral Equivalence ==
			Two or more possibilities can also be distinct from one another, but when viewed through a [[wikipedia:morality\|moral]] lens produce the same ethical directives. As such, these possibilities have '''Moral Equivalence'''.

			'''Moral Equivalence''' can be used when summing possibilities in order to determine, for example, what is most moral in a given situation (an [[Ethical Sum]]). Possibilities that are '''Morally Equivalent''' amplify and thus lend additional moral weight to that direction of ethical reasoning.

	To put this in terms that are more easily accessible, imagine that you have two simple experiences where someone enters a store. You live through both and cannot determine any difference between the two. As far as you can tell, they are a matching pattern.

One way to understand [[Functional Equivalence]] is by considering [[wikipedia:Penrose tiling\|Penrose tilings]] which are type of [[wikipedia:Aperiodic tiling\|aperiodic tiling]]:<blockquote>''The Penrose tilings, being non-periodic, have no translational symmetry – the pattern cannot be shifted to match itself over the entire plane. However, any bounded region, no matter how large, will be repeated an infinite number of times within the tiling. Therefore, no finite patch can uniquely determine a full Penrose tiling, nor even determine which position within the tiling is being shown.'' <ref>Wikipedia contributors. (2025, August 30). Penrose tiling. In ''Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia''. Retrieved 14:10, September 17, 2025, from <nowiki>https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Penrose_tiling&oldid=1308631319</nowiki></ref></blockquote>Despite the total tiling never matching 100% when shifted, the longer the Penrose tiling goes, the more any patterns and larger patterns will arise that match one another.
