Kindness. It's still a circular argument which says the desire to do kind acts come from a spirit to be kind. Both start from man in this argument so both much start from the place. It begs the question. And apart from God what makes "kindness" special or any "better" than self seeking ruthlessness? In nature the big fish eat the little fish, what makes that "wrong" for men apart from God? Expecially in a Darwinist construct where survival is the only virtue?
“It’s still a circular argument which says the desire to do kind acts come from a spirit to be kind. Both start from man in this argument so both much start from the place.”
This argument might work, if man were some indivisible entity, with no component parts, but that is not the case. What part of man does the desire to be kind come from? Is it a rational impulse, based on logic and reason, from our conscious and analytical thought processes? Is it an instinct, bred into us by nature? Is it part of some conditioning that we receive through our upbringing? Or is it something more innate than any of those things?
