Injustice and destruction (132)
If we look at Darwins theory of evolution it is chemically written in our genes...survival of the fittest and most adapatable, even though we have come a long way along the path of society and cohabitation in the event of a catastrophe most would protect their own first before considering others needs.
If it is a genetic code within then it would have to be adjusted to facilitate a general desire to help all. jmho.

Good morning Stedan, thanks so much.
I believe that too. But can't we change and live a life that is basically good?
If it is truly all in the genes, then we can't do anything with the rest of those criminals, ie p*dophile? After all, they didn't ask to be born as such?

The idea of being in the genes stems from the Flee or Fight syndrome which is why our bodies chemically produces adrenalin for such situations, as for the persuasions of others that is preference and manipulation to suit their own persona. Overall we have heard many courageous stories of families surviving in horrendous circumstances or of even groups of people thrown together by fate but overall it is the natural desire to survive.

the way I see it is there has always two struggling powers good and evil.
there is a evil force(Satan)and a good force(GOD) it's been an on going struggle since time began.we have the ability to make a choice some make the right choice or path to follow. but there is the evil force saying go ahead it's ok. we where give everything to keep us happy. but mankind has become arrogant and thinks he knows it all. anyway this is what I think.

What I have in mind is, if in fact it is true, I do believe it is, I didn't ask to be born as I am but when I look at others, the same way, then they too, didn't ask to be bad. Now here comes my theory: We are indeed a many persona inside of us. John Lock said, a different light. We do get influenced by what is in our environment, we do have a choice to which direction our lives unfold to based on those experiences and influence. If then we use our common sense and apply the good side of who we are, then there would be no problem.
The question is, why don't we all learn to be good and use it then?

Or better yet, genetically our bad traits are inborn, then science and man must use all our ability to eliminate those genes, without of course, being robotic. Is it at all possible?

So now Stringman, makes sense.
Is this why, why we do have a mind to judge what is right and what is wrong? Therefore when it all comes down to, is the very fact that we have the ability to choose which is good and not?
Then can't we just go ahead then and make it a law? GOLDEN RULE? "Don't do unto others what you don't want others do unto you?
How complicated is that?

Maybe we should listen to music like Wildfire, Hallelujah, Amazing grace?

yes the golden rule is good but some people or gov. do not care they are obsessed with power.

As you pointed out your environment and the way we are influenced if in a family unit then the chances are you will turn out the way your parents wanted you to be..not always the case a pyschopath is a breed of their own. If as a young child your left to fend for yourself to survive you do what you must so questions of good or bad does not enter ones mind..it is a case must have or die.
For instance if you saw children in a tree collecting apples would you stop them? After all they may be stealing someone elses property...it is difficult to apply being good all the time sometimes our priorities take a different path.

Yes, now just like in my thoughts. Can't we, for purposes of clarification, if there is a battle going on inside of us, who'd win? Is it determined by the disposal of our immediate need then? IE as your scenario of the kids stealing, if we taught them and say, don't steal others, why didn't they ask first? It would have been granted.
But in reality, we act based on our desires and needs, regardless of other's. A most barbaric tendencies if you ask me.

Yet at the same time those tendencies which switch from good to bad also produce amazing tenderness and love...we are all little time bombs..

I belong to a very exclusive where you can have your own control box and listen to what is there. I didn't turn it on, though, like I said, I don't pay attention to tv on my gym hours. I have my own music which is mostly Pink Floyd, Nickel back, Creed and Staind.
Anyways, even at the 24 hours in California where I was a member since 1985, still have my id, does have all different channels and all different shows on each.

But that is not important. What I wanted to share doesn't matter where it came from, does it?
I do read a lot and believe me, these negative things are more the dominant feature of almost anything on the media. Or do you pay attention at all?

And at the 24 fitness? Google it, our individual tread mill? HAS ITS OWN SCREEN AND INDIVIDUAL CHOICE OF CHANNEL. You can choose to wear your head phones of course, as the over head big screens are loud.

I don't normally listen to this talk, so full of negative energy specially on such a beautiful early breaking of the dawn but can't help putting my "Stairway to Heaven" music on my Pandora just to give it a thought.
Question: when do you think others have done injustice to you and when we do to them?
Why is man more drawn to all these negative forces instead of let's say; love, kindness and generosity?
Thanks all for your participation.
