“A Buddhist monk told me that I had been reincarnated into my same body. I had a death experience and then they brought me back,”

Oh, brother. Still, what these people did to her is shameful and criminal. I didn’t notice if anyone is being protected for the theft.

What is WRONG with people?! And yet there are some who say that people are basically good. I think not.

Genesis 6:

5 The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time. 6 The Lord regretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled.

Children must be taught right from wrong from the start. Animal and untrained humans simply take.

“yet there are some who say that people are basically good. I think not.”

My conclusion after many years is that true virtue is on a normal curve.

Perhaps 10% of folks are true saints—really care about others and would never take advantage of anyone.

Another 10% are sociopaths—treat their fellow humans as objects to be exploited in any way possible.

Then 80% are in the middle—under normal circumstances they will do the right thing but if peer pressure is strong enough or they are put in a corner they can do bad things.

An example was the medical profession during the Covid vaxxes.

Most medical folks are basically good people but when the peer pressure got strong enough most caved.
