Hi Kevin, Thanks for cutting to the chase in your response. You were more direct in your answer than Santosh. Perhaps that is why you elected to clarify the issue. You also responded with great finesse. I have to compliment Santosh for his explanation of the terms morality and ideology.
Morality and Social Behavior is more than a theoretical construct. Yet for now, let us agree to disagree. Goanetters can make their own determination based on their own wide human observations whether "majority of humans are born moral". Religion (mine) says only two were born so. You and I can agree that it is time to close this thread. Kind Regards, GL ---------- Kevin Saldanha Dear Gilbert, I would give you a YES/NO answer (before Bosco closes this thread) to your oft posed question below and the reason for it. YES, (a vast majority of) humans are born "moral". Morality is a human construct and is based essentially on the instinctive emotion of empathy, which has been found to exist in many other species. A very small minority of people lack this emotion either from birth, because of brain injury or abnormal conditioning. ------------ Gilbert Lawrence "Are humans BORN MORAL?".
