The “are people good” war

At the heart of the greatest war from beginning of times until now, the end of times, is this question, are people good?

Let’s look at the first tragedy – the first tragedy is when Kain killed Able – what was his attitude to his brother? – well he must of felt his brother was bad – now we humans have a unique definition of good and bad, for it relates to two opposing trends simultaneously, on one hand, good and bad means selfless, so from that perspective Able was good, but then there is another definition; good and bad is how it makes ME FEEL! from that perspective Able was bad!

It is this simple association – do I define the world based on altruistic or selfish terminology, that creates all arguments.

So are people good or bad, the question of course is, how are you defining good or bad!
