Do You Believe People are Basically Evil?

Taosman

Your Cousin In New Mexxico
This is kind of a off shoot of "Moment of Truth" tv show that seems to take a cynical view that people have no moral values. That people are crap.
What do you think?
Are people generally "crap"? Without moral values?
 
I dont think so. At least I hope not. I know for sure that Im not. Im not overly religious, but have a finely tuned moral compass, that always keeps me doing the right thing. I dont steal, I try not to lie, Im not putting anyone down that does, but I dont cheat on my fiance/future wife, I try not to violate too many civil rights (cop), and I try to do the right thing.

I think as a whole, humans are righteous, and more than a few bad apples spoil the bunch for everyone. Think how nice this world would be if we didnt have to lock our doors, be so careful with our children, tell people to shut up during movies, or worry about getting carjacked at every stop light.

Somehow this thread seems to perfectly fit my vision of Taos...I picture him sitting on a rock in his dirty toga wearing the John Lennon glasses and surrounded by a dozen other hippies as they all pass the peace pipe and partake in a platter full of fruit and vegetables.

Suddenly, in a Plato-esque fashion, the Shaman raises his eyes to the sky and asks, "This is kind of a off shoot of "Moment of Truth" tv show that seems to take a cynical view that people have no moral values. That people are crap.

The crusades. Crucifixion. Slavery. Pol Pot. The Taliban. The near extinction of the native Americans and the native Mexicans. Kosovo. The holocaust. Rape camps run by the Japanese. POW camps run by the Vietnamese. Waterboarding.















Yeah, humanity is just mis-thefuck-understood. Give everyone a hug and Coke and it will be different.
