i would do everything I'm not supposed to do... That human nature I think. |

If I could get away with doing anything, I'd create my own delicious food, I'd transform into a bipedal fox, I'd have lots of sex , I'd be very loving and caring to everyone. |

Your parents were raised and conditioned by society. They are part of society. You learned your moral values through your parents, and therefore, society. Had you grown up somewhere else in the world, born to different parents, then they would have raised you differently, as they would have been a part of a different society. |
|
I don't how you would react either, all I'm saying is that its easy to say you would be an invisible robin hood but when actually faced with the situation you would probably react differently given the temptation and knowledge that you would incur no consequences to any of your actions. |
|
My parents were raised by their parents actually, society did not "raise" them as you said. Society has some role, but you seem to think it's the driving factor. It's not. Little quips and quirks in differences between cultures are caused by the society you grew up in, but generally speaking your most important qualities are learned from your parents.. not from strangers. |

This was that cult, and the prisoners said it had always existed and always would exist, hidden in distant wastes and dark places all over the world until the time when the great priest Cthulhu, from his dark house in the mighty city of R'lyeh under the waters, should rise and bring the earth again beneath his sway.
You seem to be missing the point...your parents are extremely likely to hold the same general values that society holds, therefore, you are more or less conditioned by society, albeit indirectly. At some level, your parents must conform to society, or else they would be social outcasts. The degree to which they conform will vary, but in general, the vast majority of the population has parents that go with the grain and do what is expected of them by society. |

Our parents may indeed be more effective at implanting moral beliefs and attitudes, but it is society that ultimately enforces these beliefs. When you get out into the real world, your parents are no longer there to keep you in line. Why don't you steal? Because society sees it fit to punish those who steal. |
|
That is not true, I don't steal because it's taking someone else's belongings... and many do steal.... So society seems to have little impact.. |

We did something similar to this in my AP Psych class, although there was no magic invisibility ring, just absolute assurance that we would never be detected. Here's the list I came up with: |
|
If one had this much power their id or shadow would take over and ones main prioties would be : sex, violence and robbery |
|
Very nice list! |

"MementoMori, the lucid machine"
"There's nothing better than knowing what it's like to fly like superman. Being fully aware of the air whipping by you, controlling every movement of every single atom in your body with a single thought. It's real freedom, and there's not a word good enough to describe it, so I'll just call it dreamy for now."
'What is war?...In a short sentence it may be summed up to be the combination and concentration of all the horrors, atrocities, crimes, and sufferings of which human nature on this globe is capable' - John Bright

I'm actually quite confident in my ability to snag something without someone noticing, I do it quite often to "fuck" with friends of mine.. like yank their wallet out of their back pocket etc... But I won't steal, regardless of my chances of getting caught. It's wrong to take what others have worked hard for. I honestly could careless what people think about me, I do things I know are right. |
