I think autocorrect went a little ham, could you clarify what you meant? Did you mean to say "Do I think evil is inherent in horrible people, or something we label them with"?

  • Wouldn't you agree that all of language is a human attempt at signifying something in our thoughts or lives, that we were not born with the gift of language, we have to develop it? If you have ever seen Harry Potter, would you agree with this quote? [quote]I want you to listen to me very carefully, Harry. You're not a bad person. You're a very good person, who bad things have happened to. Besides, the world isn't split into good people and Death Eaters. We've all got both light and dark inside us. What matters is the part we choose to act on. That's who we really are. [/quote] Evil is always lurking in our minds, whether or not that makes all of us inherently evil or the few that choose to act on it evil, I don't know, would you agree?

  • But isn't the very founding of modern society built upon this Evil? Isn't the course of human history itself pure evil? [spoiler]You know how Plato, the Greek philosopher wandered philosophical questions by asking another question to make the asked Think? That's abiutb wha this ist [/spoiler]

  • Are you like Thomas Hobbes, in that you think all people are born evil? Are people expected to be perfect? Are there not moments in history that challenge this notion? Where do you think you fall in the Nature vs. Nurture argument? [spoiler]Yeah, I think that's abiutb wha this ist too XD I have fun with it though, don't you?[/spoiler]

  • Since you said you are a good person, can I assume you aren't screwing with me? Isn't nature vs. nurture a very heated debate in whether people are born with their character and such or if their up-bringing influences a clean slate?

  • I like science, so I can day when an infant is born, some of the links(axon) connecting feels(nuerons) are stronger than others, so isn't it both?

  • I believe it is both, but do scientists want to ever say two things can co-exist?

  • Isn't that why I asked you if I can safely make that assumption? Is that what you plan to do as a career or is it more of a fun class?

  • Doesn't the universe go on (nearly) Forever? Can we possibly know anything significant when there is infinite Knowedge? Doesn't the unknown have an allure?

  • Isn't that what I am saying, that in your context it seemed as though you were bounding something infinite when you said nearly?

  • Is their Infinity? Or it it simply a mean to describe what is beyond our comprehension?

  • If a graph approaches a value we are unable to attain, but simply gets closer and closer to it, can we assume that the graph continues infinitely without touching the graph? By definition, isn't infinity simply something that never ends and continues forever?

  • But isn't every end a beginning? Doesn't the end of a republic lead to the founding of an empire? Doesn't the end of a tyranny lead to a the founding of a country? Doesn't the end of a large war bring on peace? A quite simple euphemism: Isn't the bursting of one light bulb the birth of a new one?
