Tina, thanks for the warm welcome.
"good" and "bad" aren't these just words we associate with events that cause two different kinds of sensations in our mind? So how do we say that the same sensations
are not perceived by other organisms? I have seen street dogs furiously chasing
vehicles for many days after their young ones have been run over. May be they too
have the sensation of "good" and "bad" created in their mind. So instead of "humans",
we may now say "the mind" caused "evil" to exist. But then isn't it the mind that
created everything? isn't "existance" always "with respect to" the "perceiver"?
Any physicists out there? perhaps you can give us some ideas on the role of the "perceiver" in some of the latest findings about what the universe is made up of?
