Horrible, just horrible... U_U

[Yüme1]

If your anything like me, you watch the news on occasion, hear about things (on occasion)..And theres always something about someone dying...

Whether it's a murder, tragic death, car accident, not soon after you hear about a robber that shot an old lady in jail for life...

Why does it work like that...

The whole point of this thread is me wondering why more good people die than bad...
It makes no sense at all to me, the people that have children, family members, job's, friends.

Against the evil doers - not to sound comic like.

You even hear about children dying, wth. While the murderers, burglers, etc are locked up and breathing just fine, or not locked up at all.

Sorry to put this all down on someone, had to share it and let it out

Dont think of me badly.

totally agree. news is all about ratings tho. the more tragic the story the more viewers. no one really cares about an evil person dying. but the whole world watches if a kid does. i know this sounds heartless but its true.

More good people die than bad because there are more good people then bad, i'd say that about 18% of humans continue to do bad deeds for there own selfish reasons, Humanity as a hole is evil. Everyone does selfish acts, its part of our personal being. U_U

 

[Yüme1]

yes U_U

 

[inyuasha772]

in the end the bad will over take the good and the world shall burn like it derserves and the world shall be rebuilt.

That's not the point...


And you know that...
So dont make it into something that it's not, or try to sound cool -_-

A bus could hit you right now and 2 people would watch it on the news and care, the other 3,000 wouldnt give half a sh*t.

Wrong... People will never change, or to put in in larger terms, Humanity will never change. if one out of a million changes. it still changes nothing.

It's alot easier to be "evil" than good. Picture yourself in their shoes, maybe they've been trying to get a job for months with no luck and they turn to crime in order to support a family. It was meant to be a one time thing but a witness was present and the robber freaked out.

While I agree with you that more people should care about the good dying, we should also help the needy before they take the wrong path. Or send the mentally unstable to get help.

Human kind is inherently selfish. I would have to disagree with you >>Frederick Uchiha, I think that humans are drawn to what you deem as "evil" simply because it is easier. As for why more good people die than bad, that is a opinionated statement. Good and bad are terms made by humans, by nature, nothing is evil, and nothing is good.

 

[Passion]

Bad people have the guns. That's why

i respectfully dissagree with nothing is evil and nothing is good. yes the human mind did create these terms and meanings. but the human mind also has a conscience which ultimately determines right or wrong, good or evil. one who enjoys cause pain and misery of others i consider evil. one who lives to help others reguardless of their personal being i consider good. would u not agree??

 

[Uchiha Riyo]

Agreeable.Why do people become evil?To make money?To rebel?They should know that they're turning from God.Being evil isn't stealing,it's doing what's bad,falling to temptations,making money out of grief,sorrow,ill acts,stealing.Any reason to be evil is nothing,because you don't need a reason,you need to prevent yourself and others for gibing in.

im just putting my 2 cents in on this because i have been to jail and breathing is all u can do there, along with thinking about why u are there. There is nothing else to do in jail beside take 7 steps to reach the other side of ur cell, and look out and release u did something that ****ed up ur life and someone else's some people in jail try to find a way to make it alright for themselves or who they hurt.

I think that this is somewhat "dangerous" thinking, in the terms that it might lead to judgments about who should stay alive or not.
We shouldn't devaluate human life that much as to be concerned if the people who die(d) are good or bad. Human life should be always valued the same.

I agree, but human life is not always valued the same. Honestly, if I had to die so another government official could live, in almost every situation, I would be the one to die. Now, I am not obviously pointing out the government is corrupt or anything, but I can say, that a situation like that is unlikely. However, if it were to happen, I would be dead.

I'm not saying that, being the creation of the human mind, devalues the terms. And I'll just have to disagree again. Everyone has their reasons for doing things. Something is their subconscious tells them to do this. While some people do it to be "nice," the majority of people subconsciously know they will gain something for this. I don't mean to bring religion into this, but I would have to say that the mere thought that, if you do bad things you will go to hell, keeps people in line. Again, I'm sorry if I offended anyone, but I was trying to make a point. And to answer your last question, I would call them nice, not good.

I don't think you've offended anyone No reason to be on edge, we are all e-friends here.
I don't argue with what you say but I think we were discussing about the one who would make this decision, not the situation itself. That's the point here, what the one taking the decision should be thinking, not what would happen in each occasion. And yes, definitely, we do not live in an ideal society, so human life is not valued the same. Hundreds of Muslims die every day in Palestine and we are concerned because of the few deaths that happen daily in our countries and we get annoyed or sad by it. All of us, or at least most. This is the absolute devaluation of human life: depending on where the death took place, we get involved or we ignore.

For the second part of what you said, it has all been said by Kant already: we get punished -and involved- not because of what we did but because we could have acted otherwise, so it's not about what we will gain but about what we will not lose.

By the way, have you read Nietzche's: 'On the Genealogy of Morality'? Seeing that you are somewhat thinking philosophically, I really recommend it to you because, in my opinion, it's the best answer to what you've just said and the best explanation of what this 'conscience' (and not subconscious) really is:
'The proud realization of the extraordinary privilege of responsibility, the awareness of this rare freedom and power over himself and his destiny, has penetrated him [the Man] to the depths and become an instinct, his dominant instinct: -what will he call his dominant instinct, assuming that he needs a word for it? No doubt about this answer: the sovereign man calls it his conscience'

Some people don't even think about the value of other muman being's lives is what i'm trying to say here.

So why should I think about theirs,
well, it is mentally impossible think about everyone elses seeing as though there are nearly 7 billion people on this planet, and in the average human brain there are only 100 billion cells and to remember one person takes about 32 brain cells in all :|
