Dear Anamensis,

Okay. My first question has to do with the source of what you view as "good" and "evil". It ultimately derives from:

"...but because I'm human and I want what's best for me."

So, is this sort of a Golden Rule - "Do unto others..." - derived from the desire to establish a society based on mutual reciprocity?

Source? Source for the action or for the judgment of the action? In other words, are you asking "what makes people DO 'good' or 'evil'?" or are you asking "how do you judge what is 'good' or 'evil'?"
