| A faux society of individuals that don't exist. Their main aim is to ensure that ethics and ethical matters receive brutal treatment at all times. Sometimes described as rabid intellectuals, other times described as vicious morons.
A quote from Dr. Susan Mongood, Chairperson of the P.A.T.E.:
"Ethical quandaries, considerations, and questions are often taken too seriously by society-at-large. We must endeavor to take a more chaotic view of ethics, and realize that, like Nature itself, they are constantly evolving and changing. Ethical questions can only be answered by a process we call "survival of the fittest", wherein each possible answer is thrown into a filthy, muddy pit in order to fight for their own correctness."
