That would be an almost uniquely terrible idea, lol.
Quote: Again, I can think of my positive and negative emotions being the inner light and inner darkness (my inner goodness and badness), but without a positive and negative emotion there, then I would just be thinking of them being my inner goodness and badness without any real good or bad within my conscious being.If so, then so what?
Quote:Lastly, I think that we as human beings have simply been taught the wrong definition of good, bad, emotions, and a positive/negative experience when it comes to our inner conscious being. The definition of good and bad is all fine and dandy when it comes to what types of situations and things are good and bad. But when it comes to our inner being, then we as human beings have had the wrong definition all along.I'm sure that many of us have been taught poor morality, poor ethics. I'm also sure that your worldview is incapable of clearing that up for those people.
