But I think I do understand this. This speaks for itself. However, it does NOT cover ALL situations.bahman wrote: ↑Thu Jul 29, 2021 12:55 pmYou do not understand what I am trying to say. Cutting yourself into pieces is harming yourself which this is against a healthy life.Age wrote: ↑Thu Jul 29, 2021 12:40 amWell NO one HAS TO live 'with' 'suffering', and, NO one HAS TO 'cause' suffering.
The ONLY reason WHY 'suffering' exists is because of what 'you', adult human beings do.
If ANY one lives with suffering because of constant pain due to the nerve endings of the physical body, then this is another matter. Which, by the way, can be reduced considerably anyway.
'Suffering' is just a mental process, which is ONLY created and caused by what 'you', adult human beings, do to "others" and "yourselves".
'Suffering' is CERTAINLY NOT a necessary part of living and being alive. Therefore, is also NOT a necessary part of Life AT ALL, either, to me.
But you only SEE 'things' DIFFERENTLY, correct?
LOL You people do harm "each other", while enjoying, in this world in the days when this is being written, ANYWAY.Okay. If this is what you want to define 'things' and BELIEVE is true, then continue on HAVING TO live with 'evil'. This will allow you to "justify" to "yourself" that the harm that you ACTUALLY DO onto "others" IS NECESSARY.
Here is a GREAT EXAMPLE of just HOW the peoples of those days could, and would, 'try to' "justify" their OBVIOUSLY Truly Wrong behaviors.
Also, noted is how you completely REFUSED to acknowledge and answer the CLARIFYING QUESTION I posed to you.
Your example is an EXTREMELY NARROWED perspective of things.
So, some people do like suffering, on some occasions.
So, you use just ONE ONLY example, out of countless DIFFERENT variables, and you expect that that one only example of yours to suffice in covering what you are 'trying to' CLAIM in regards to ALL of 'evil', itself, correct?
