my stoned rambling for the day

right so i was thinking, you know how everyone believes in good and evil, you know, the big battle between whats wrong and whats right, well i dont believe in that, i believe in choices, i dont believe that there are forces of good and evil battling for power over the earth, but i got to thinking what if its true? what if there are these forces, like demons, that make us all do all the evil that happens on this planet? what if every time someone shoots someone, steals, or does something like that, what if there actually are these evil spirits making them do it, you know, like we're just puppets for these forces, like toy soldiers that are being used as pawns to win supremecy over this world? anyway Womans Beach Volleyball has come on the TV so ima go, peace yall

Good and evil are questions of perspectives. It all depends on your lot in life.

Hmm..good and evil forces?

The thing is, we only know good from evil (right and wrong) through our upbringing. I call it 'The protocol'.
For example:
Society A is populated by people who hit each other - it is the social norm. It would be reasonable to expect everyone of that society not to see hitting people as being wrong. And because it is the protocol of that society, future generations will be instilled with this behavioural pattern - thus producing a cycle of evolution.

I was brought up to respect my elders and to demonstrate good manners, therefore I would view someone who beat up an elderly person as being evil.
However, the 'attacker' may be from society A, and would not see his act as being anything other than 'normal behaviour'.

There are no 'outside forces', Ghost - merely your own sense of right and wrong, values that have been instilled in you by your upbringing and own intelligence.

As a footnote, I would suggest that there are certain people in this world that would have you believe that there were 'evil forces' at work. These people are usually of some religious bent, and have only one goal in mind...

Res...

lol Res, I totally agree.. I was just hypothesizing, you know, what IF it was true, I dont actually think it is.. lol

i think that the stuff about good and evil is just a buncha crap made up by people who cant take responsibility for their actions.
