Is right and wrong subjective?

Is it worse to hurt yourself or hurt others?

Are the majority of reasons for lying bad/wrong?

Right and wrong have been the subject of philosophers for centuries.



Our civilisation has been built on foundations underpinned by those two words, and the understanding, misunderstanding and confusion as to their meaning is the cause of all our ills.



This is because every single human has a unique set of values that define "right" and "wrong" quite differently. Because of our diversity, we have developed institutions to make that determination for us; religion and their gods; politicians, judges and even grandiose bureaucracies.



Each has failed us.

Right and wrong are in a state of flux.

Hurting others is wrong.



Unless they hurt you.



But then, some things hurt people moreso than others.



Call me a white, anglo-saxon, sexist, racist militant, and I take that as a compliment.



Say that to Romero and he would be offended.



So, who is hurt and who is not, by the same blow?

I might start to get violent if some chimpanzee tries to negate everything with racism card.



I take hate from certain people as compliment.

I feel sad for people who have hate for others because those people have no idea what that other person's life is like. Hate can eat you up and make you hate yourself.

There are some blows that generally get a similar feeling of hurt.

You have to remember that what other people say doesn't matter, even if it hurts you. That is their intentions. Never let them see you hurt even though you are.  Don't let them think they won in hurting you, let them be hurtful some more, make a fool of their self and only tear themselves down even more.  Gotta find a way to tune it out.

I suspect YOUR definition of getting violent is kicking a wall.

Hitting someone is wrong. What about hitting children?



There is no right or wrong...there is simply living according to principles which enable you to live in peace and harmony.

Say that to me and I'd laugh. Any sexist, racist militant is well below me. They're insecure and inferior.



Funny. That's exactly how Odi would describe himself. You would take that as a compliment?

I think you get my point, nonetheless.
