On the whole, do you believe people are good?
>>
>>135872908
I believe people are stupid enough to believe in the concept of good and evil. I believe most people will willingly or unwillingly (without care or reflection afterwards) do something bad. Most people operate out of self interest and nothing more. It just so happens to be in their self interest to be good.

Master morality is good. Most have been conditioned for slave morality - they must awaken before our line is ended. To end the line is evil, to continue the line is good.
Arise great warrior arise.

There's always an ulterior motive.
Some people act that way to feel good about themselves. Some people want something from you. At the very least they fear the legal consequences and/or social scorn.

I'm good because society and I have conditioned myself to feel good when I help others. Also helping humanity helps "me" in the long run because I'm more than just one beating heart. I'm a conglomeration of genes and memes that are also found throughout humanity.

>>
>>135874255
I agree with you, but one might say crime rates are low because of fear of reprisal from the state and the community.

I would say fear of reprisal from childhood when your parents spanked or guilt tripped you for misbehaving conditioned you to be good, not that you are constantly weighing your risks every time you have an opportunity to be bad.
>>
>>135872908
I tend to think people strive to be what they are told is good. Whether they are or not is something I don't usually judge unless the actions are overt and individual knew better. Subjective contexts within morality no withstanding moral subjects can be broken down into more or less relational components, waste being the exception and something I personally consider to be a sin in the truest of terms. Violations of person-hood in various ways are evil especially those perpetrated against the defenseless or naive. Violations of property are usually evil if done for gain though more complicated if a situation of survival. Other than those three though it gets pretty fuzzy and resolves down personally held values and integrity on some level or another which is usually subjective if taken in part but form a more objective moral lens if viewed in whole.

Considering that since the beginning of the first thing you can call human up to until a of hundred of years the "natural" way to die for humans was to get fucking slaughtered, murdered, eating and raped to death by other humans and the exception was to die of old age/natural causes (which is why life expectency was ~20 years for thousands of years)... no i dont think people are naturally "good" and i have hundrets of thousands of years to prove this fact while anyone claiming they are good has at best if you close your eyes maybe 200 years... let that sink in. Humans for 99,9% of their existence have just behaved as basically any other wild animal because thats what we are. Think about that unnatural causes of deaths were for hundrets of thousands of years the rule by faaaaaaaar and natural deaths the exception that basically no one had the luck of having.

Yes, of course people are selfish, it is in any organisms natural self-interest to secure ones own existential success first and foremost.

No, people have no sense of self respect or values that they try to stick to anymore.

Premarital sex, doing drugs, getting constantly drunk, adultery etc. used to all be very big "if" decisions. Now they're all just a case of "when" to most people.

No one even considers saving themselves for marriage anymore, everyone just wants to have sex as soon as possible and with as many different people as possible.

Getting a virgin wife was almost unavoidable 100 years ago, now it's next to impossible.

It isn't fear of reprisal. It is the fact that friendliness between kith and kin is a natural behavior seen in most social animals.

Now reprisal is a very good logical reason not to start shit, but the behavior is innate, not logical.

I think people act only based on their rational self-interest. Basically they're selfish. I won't make a value judgement, though. It's not good or bad, it's just natural.

That's also why dialectical materialism is correct and communism is inevitable.

Paganism made whites the equivalent of niggers.

Niggers unironically practiced similar trash with body paint, ritualistic sacrifice, and cannibalism.

It's not a coincidence.

White people received the seat of power to the world when they adopted Christianity. And now they are losing it again as they are becoming faggotty weeby athiests again. Again, not a coincidence.

Returning to paganism = returning to white niggerdom (which is already underway)

So many people are so broken, by their family, by the society they are apart of, by the lot of their life. They are broken because they make such a big deal out of things that don't even matter. They are broken but they don't need to be. Everyone's progressing towards the heat death of the Universe. I ask you seriously, what matters then? What matters when the existence of not only you, but of everything you have ever seen or even marginally influenced freezes and collapses back into the primordial orb to start anew. So much pain and suffering, so much fretting over what ultimately doesn't matter.

Of course you get the Nihilists who begin to cry out, "If nothing matters then why bother living?" or some such variant. You also get the Broken Ones who now want a reason not kill someone or a reason not to torture animals. At first glance these might seem like valid points. The problem comes when you question the origin of these ideas. It comes from a place of pain and suffering, of caring. Nihilists, for example, care so much about their life and what has happened to them that they exclaim none of it matters so they can cover the pain in absurdity. Truly, if they didn't care, then death would seem a mere mirage because they would realize they were never alive to begin with. They are merely a fluctuation, a bubble in the ever flowing primordial soup that we call the Universe. On the other hand, the Broken Ones. They wish to do harm because it brings them some minute amount of satisfaction. If only they could step outside that paradigm they would realize they don't need to harm anything for satisfaction, they could just BE satisfied. Everything is so much easier when it's just being.

I offer you a chance to step out of it all. To realize that not only does life not matter but that it never existed to begin with. I offer you the chance to just be. To be happy for no reason at all, to be satisfied with the nothing you don't have. I offer you to be.

I am kind of sleepy, so forgive me, but it's pretty much a core theme of the Bible. We're basically a fallen human race, more prone to evil than good. That's why we need God to guide us, we're just not good enough on our own, even if we believe we are.

"Let he who is without sin cast the first stone."

I'm honestly about to fall asleep here, so I'm probably not doing this explanation any justice. Just think on that quote above though. It's all right there.

>And when he was gone forth into the way, there came one running, and kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life? And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God. Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father and mother. And he answered and said unto him, Master, all these have I observed from my youth. Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me. And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great possessions.

>And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God! And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God! It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God. And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who then can be saved? And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.

>Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:

>Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:

>Their feet are swift to shed blood:

>Destruction and misery are in their ways:

>And the way of peace have they not known:

>There is no fear of God before their eyes.

>Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God. Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin.

>But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.

>Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith. Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law. Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of the Gentiles also: Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.

"Good" is relative. People are more inclined to take a self serving attidtude. Such as kicking out illegals increases the job market and is good for citizens.
