This oddly enough fits in a lot of arguements.

They will, if the majority of them had it in their minds in the first place.

If somebody naturally desires to do good, and there's more of THEM than the people who want to do bad, then sure they'll discover a way to start and maintain government where they are.

But if the majority of them is a bunch of no good wankers, with no sense of earnest respect or responsibility, then you get that situation in "Lord of the Flies", regardless even of the good guys in their midst.

Golding just provided a situation in which the good-hearted were outnumbered. Not EVERY story has to have a happy ending.

The picture is a pokemon gif of some episode or other.

The problem is that it always assumes that everyone is innately a bad person. :/

So? I only care if you caught them without hacking. While I know that hacking can be difficult, it doesn't impress me.

We, are and we aren't at the same time, inately everything boils down to human instinct and it's a mostlly equal mix of Pure unadulterated evil, and saintly behavior and emmotions, however even the smallest amount of evil seems more prevalent to society than the largest saintly behaviour.

No. No it doesn't. It proposes that evil actually exists, and then it illustrates what happens when people give in to it.

Never once does it show any idea that says that EVERYBODY is innately evil.

If anything, it's a warning against giving in to those "state of nature" impulses.

OH OH OH I just had an idea.


Hack the system so that you can replace your character avatar with another one.

Still not impressed. Hacking of any kind has ceased to be impressive to me.

Why are we talking about good and evil? It usually doesn't lead anywhere good.

We could be spending our time on epic fights. (Or posting in elemental planes )
Romans 8:31 What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?

1 Corinthians 13:1-3 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
