Is Good and Bad Universal?
As a beginning note, I wish not to try to prove or disprove anything.
This has been a gnawing topic for me.
I remember a Voltaire quote (thx O'nus) "There is no good or evil, but thinking it will make it so."
First of all, I have to admit that I do live under the concepts of Good and Evil. Like, it's ideal not to rape, not to steal, and not to hurt, because I consider those evil. But still,is the spiritual aspect of good and evil necessary to explain this? Is it nothing more than a theory? Do certain actions and thoughts basically zero down just to the empathy humans feel for one another?
Thanks for the feedback on this thread.

Yeah I'd have to agree. Generally it comes down to the respect people have for each other.
