  • @alest5erc2012 What about the elephant man?

  • Related (believe it or not) to Schopenhauer, evil is "real", but real if you make it real. Therefore the evil of the supernatural can wash me with an ocean when I believed in Poseidon, it's a ghost ocean, but that's the intention of Poseidon religion, it's supposed to wash you supernaturally with the sea. I've seen it. Now I know that the "evil" isn't a bad thing coz the "cruel" sea is my destiny, I was born to be washed with it by Poseidon.

  • Why do we do what we do?

    Becasue we are who we are.

    Our life is based on our decisons

    Which arise from our character

    Which in turn is the result of what the brain we were born with has changed over time because of the influence of our life experience...but that's it!

    There is no magical Free Will.

    But so what...EVEN IF Free Will is real is doesn't mean we are in control of our lives....nobody knowwhat the exact outcome of their choice will be.

  • Every person is beautiful.

  • Way to go Buddha, the nihilist, I remember being agreeable, but then nobody gets me when it comes to me in a "now you're talking" mentality. Evil is mysterious.
