7/13 Do you believe that in this world, there is good or evil?
good: .
evil: ..
stupid: ...
\_ first, please define good and evil.
\_ ob dubya == good, suiciders == evil
\_ but from some points of view, dubya = evil, suiciders = good
\_ What does that mean? Can't there be both?
\_ No. There is only good or evil. Come on, most of the Americans
learned this shit in grade school. Let me give you a few examples.
-Jesus Christ good, athiesm evil.
-America good, Al Qaeda evil
-Freedom good, North Korea and Iraq Evil.
-Family value good, gay marriage evil.
-Capitalism good, socialism evil.
-Pro-life good, abortion evil.
-George Bush good, Sadam Hussein evil.
-SUV good (freedom), conservation evil (letting terrorists win)
-Border patrol good, immigrants evil.
Everyone seems to get it these days. But if you need to relearn
this shit, please report to your nearest Homeland Security Agency
\_ To be sort of fair, there are plenty of morons who flip several
of those bits but keep the same binary view. The actual state
of the bits is not what makes them morons.
\_ This is really really cool and well-stated. Thanks. -John
\- you do if you've been indoctrinated into certain belief systems.
Christians and Muslims tend to be ethnocentrist, whereas
overly educated academics tend to be relativists. In another
word religious phreaks are opinionated and academics are
wishy-washy, and you should not pay attention to either one.
\_ No, good an evil are subjective.
\_ To a degree. -John |
