I don't know if I would remove anything. I mean, it all sounds nice, removing disease or famine or ignorance or suffering. Certainly I do not like that these things exist. But there is always a consequence, and who can say what the knock on effect would be if you removed something like that?

Hmm. Needs more thought....*goes into pondering mode*

@theacidskull: Ying and Yang is about peace. Without the balance you'd be fked up. Same as your body. You need a perfect amount of stress and relaxation in coexistence or else your chemically imbalanced.

The whole delusion that if you're not in a serious relationship by the time you're a teenager, you have no life.

@theacidskull:

You've have to understand good and evil that you see in every day life does not even exist in reality, at least outside of the mind (society) which believes in them. They are only judgments passed by the individual from their own unique personal perspective. What one person sees as bad or evil may seem to be the only logical thing to do from some other perspective.

Remember that the ideas of both good and evil are point of view specific (to the individual or society). This is why people like President Bush and Bin Laden are either loved or hated. Bush was seen as good by people who shared his fear based thought system. Those who have a compassionate concern for all of mankind often saw him as evil.

@theacidskull: What if you took a life in self defense or in war? Evil and Good is all a matter of perspective.

One mans terrorist is another mans liberator.

There's no such thing as good and evil anyway. There is only just and unjust. What you can justify and what you cannot, and that is a matter of opinion like everything else. History is written by the victors and it is they who ultimately decide what is just or not.

If I could remove 1 thing from the world, it would be greed. Not currency all together, but greed. Too few are rewarded too much for what usually is trivially work and vice versa.

@theacidskull: Depends on WHY you kill IMO. It's all opinions. Like you killing me would never be correct as you'd be depriving the world of me and that's monstrous ;P

Hm. Good points.

i did not need that image in my head.

still. i can see your point. I won't say i won't kill someone if i have to but it still feels ...wrong.

It can set,well,just about anyone uneasy,but like he said:

One man's terrorist is another man's liberator.

You may be an enemy to that man's mother (who just lost her son),but a hero to your daughter (who you just saved....or whom,I never learned the difference between those two).

Know what I mean?

@theacidskull:

So, I'm curious, how grievous a wrong have I committed? I pulled the trigger. I volunteered to serve, am I evil? I've read your other posts in this thread but I am curious. I chose to serve. I knew what it would entail. I'm not trying to start sh*t, but I am curious. Your opinion is your opinion, I won't be upset.

no, i said it feels wrong, not that it's EVIL, because someone on the other side of the coin(you know what i mean) is just like you, a man trying to help. you are not Evil, but i feel that killing should be a LAST resort only.

I'd Probably kill someone too if i had no other way to go. if my posts did send a hint that i though it was evil, i apoligize, that is not what i meant. SENSELESS killing is evil, but Killing can be justified.

Hope i'm making sense :)

Haha, you're making sense just fine. And yes, I'd agree: taking a life is wrong. Well, not wrong in all scenarios but it's, I don't know what it is. It's hard to put into words. Some things can't be helped, though. Sometimes...humans are...animals.

It's a feeling I honestly wouldn't wish on anyone. It's a scar on the soul. But I guess that's one more reason I do what I do, so others won't need to live with that burden. Not everyone can handle it, and I signed the paper to protect those who can't.

No hard feelings, I apologize if I came across aggressive.

Sadness. It would get boring being happy all the time, but we wouldn't care because we couldn't be sad. Though I guess we could still get angry...

No consuming desires that would endanger for others. Not for money, power, sexual hunger, non of that $h!t. It is a bit crazy since you would be removing the need for survival and self-continuation in desperate situations, but is it wrong when it is for the good of the many?

@thespideyguy: You've seen actual socialism ?

@thespideyguy Do you understand that every modern advanced nation is quasi-socialist? Without a safety net capitalism might as well be feudalism.
