a higher power would be far superior to us and may not even comprehend what a dentist is. they would find the notion absurd. so suggesting we were designed flawed just so things like dentists could exist. which it seems you are implying. is just retarded. more so highly improbable than just us evolving naturally like every other animal with no outside interference.
As for "Evil" while I rarely use the term for something I highly disagree with there is no Good or Evil. it's all subjective. if it was objective all would agree on it all Law would be the same and no one would act Evil. as for why would you? at least 90% of the population would not. it's through its subjectivity in that in every villain's mind they are the Good guy's that Good and Evil don't exist. there is agreed upon morality based on the logical notion that society functions better with ground rules. but that does not mean any inherit Law.
"The Creed of the Assassin Brotherhood teaches us that nothing is forbidden to us. Once, I thought that meant we were free to do as we would. To pursue our ideals, no matter the cost. I understand now. Not a grant of permission. The Creed is a warning. Ideals too easily give way to dogma. Dogma becomes fanaticism. No higher power sits in judgement of us. No supreme being watches to punish us for our sins. In the end, only we ourselves can guard against our obsessions. Only we can decide whether the road we walk carries too high a toll. We believe ourselves redeemers, avengers, saviours. We make war on those who oppose us, and they, in turn, make war on us. We dream of leaving our stamp upon the world... even as we give our lives in a conflict that will be recorded in no history book. All that we do, all that we are, begins and ends with ourselves." - Arno Dorian
Enlighten as to how you know ones thinking and how'd they find such absurd.
Not implying that. True or false: With perfect teeth there would be no need for dentists.
Without imperfection, one would not know or understand perfection. A poor, unnecessary judgement. "Retarded."
Or good and evil are intermixed and one cannot discern which from which so they choose to to play the "subjective" isn't reality card. Without proper discerning, it would be easy for anyone to falsely label something that is good as evil and evil as good. Once again, if there were no evil, one wouldn't know or understand good. If there were no good, one wouldn't know or understand evil. Many are starting to evolve the beliefs that they are a machine and so mechanical to the point that can barely can recognize experience, feeling, conscience, they are basically dead and unconscious(unaware.) Some may envy and admire this. This is also dogma, evolving into fanaticism with the initial birth as an ideal. My brother-in law once told me about how his friend in California had his young child stolen, the child was killed, cut open to place drugs inside, sewed up, and used to smuggle them across the border. Is this neither good or evil? The men who did such a thing, clearly they are different and not like most... does this mean they didn't know what they were doing was evil or that their good conscience wasn't working? Elaborate on how you find this not evil? If discernment of good and evil has been made to not exist, what is your discernment to make a judgement on something being "retarded?" If your words were true, there would be no such thing as retarded and nonretarded. They would be subjective. How could you know what retarded is without knowing what non-retarded was?
I can't take that assassins creed card with much weight, or society giving laws... it is contradictory to other posts that I've read from you and the beliefs of strict determinism. If strict determinism were accurate, humans would have naturally evolved to have no knowledge of good and evil, as well as having no desire for justice, as well as not having the capability in deciding anything for themselves. But, for another discussion.
