Anyone else ever wonder how to judge fictional characters when they do something that doesn't mesh with your real-life values, but oughtn't matter for a fictional character?

Heh, I just realized that most of my favorite fictional characters fit this criterion -- having to make morally questionable decisions -- in one way or another. It's kind of part of the business of being a science fiction protagonist, generally speaking -- even the Doctor has made plenty of less-than-ideal choices in his day.
