Sigh.. Nature is indeed about the survival of the fittest, but fittest doesn't necessarily mean strongest or fastest. It means having the right set of genes in a particular environment.
Quote:Do you think human beings are born evil and have to learn to be good? or do you think we are born good and at some point turn evil or have evil tendencies now and then?
Evil and good are concepts created by man. Good and evil can't be measured objectively, it all comes down to the culture one was brought up in.
Quote:Its kind of scary to think but there are alot of people that wont kill you simply because they dont want to go to jail for a long time.
It's kind of scary that anyone would reason this way. Me not killing people does not stem from a fear of repercussion, but from a will not to kill. It's as simple as that.
Quote:If we are souless matter and its all random, then the feelings we feel, the bonds we make with other people, our thoughts and beliefs, everything. Its all just a never ending chain of chemical reactions. Why are you concerned with how anybody is treated? animal rights? equality for all men and women? fairness?
Respect. The golden rule. Because when people of a community takes care of each other, it's a nicer place for everyone to live in.
And btw, animals don't have rights. In order to have rights, you have to have responsibilities. But as a human I think it's decent to treat sentient beings with care. This is the only world we can be sure to live in, let's make it a nice one for as many as possible.
Quote:Why is it wrong when somebody cuts me off on the highway to beat their brains out with a hammer? Thats what comes natural to me at 1st thought.
You are scaring me now, if killing, because of being cut in line by someone, is your first response. Put your shit in perspective. Is someones life worth less than one position in the line?!
Quote:How is man the only animal that can defy his very nature? We compare ourselves to animals on various issues.
Of course we can't defy our nature. What humans do, is in human nature. We can compare ourselves to all living things and find similarities and differences. It all comes down to how much DNA we share, really.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
