Mind's Eye Friendship

It seemed as though my 'minds' life was dead.. but i was just doing
this term paper on Aristotle and Derrida on friendship and a question
came to me... .. i came across something that Cicero said i think..
that it is the law that one should not ask a friend for an unlawful
thing... or that wrong doing done for a friend is not excused, now the
Greeks were a little tough on virtue.. and i quite agree with them..
but for most us i think it would be difficult to determine whether a
thing is moral or immoral.. in more subtle cases in mean.. how do you
decide whether refusing to do an immoral thing for the sake of your
friend is really out of conscience or is it cowardice in the time of
problem.. is it a test of friendship?.... They say that one loves one
friend like one's self then would one punish one's friend like one
would one's self?Or is it that it is absolute and blind love that will
make one do anything for the sake of a friend... for example if our
friend committed a crime... this is just one example.. you guys can
think of lots others... Also would one think of troubling a friend
when one finds ones' self in a moral dilemma ... would one expect much
from them and think them traitor if they don't take our sides...
please feel free to add more thoughts to this.. and do say what you
think..
