What is the Root of all evil?
| I am.

---Yes, you are.
---As am I and Mother Theresa and a Tibetan monk and the coach of a little league team.
---As is a hole in a road and a tree limb and a dog and a mountain and a gust of wind.
---At the most basic level of perception ‘interaction’
693 and
694(a relatively short {compared to Drifters lengthy orations/lectures} 2 part explanation) is the root cause of evil.
---At the level of discussion, for this thread, ‘love’ is the cause of evil.
---Evil is subjective, at one level. Tell me SB_UK (to repeat myself to another) is there anyone or anything in reality that would consider the epitome of Goodness, that being ‘God’ to be evil?

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/objective
7. being the object of perception or thought; belonging to the object of thought rather than to the thinking subject (opposed to subjective).
8. of or pertaining to something that can be known, or to something that is an object or a part of an object; existing independent of thought or an observer as part of reality.
---According to those definitions of the word ‘objective’, something bad (as defined by and learned from the majority of other external individuals in a society) happening being observed by another being is seeing a relatively objective evil.
---Evil is subjective, intersubjective/subjectively objective and objective. It all depends on what there is and what you see of it.

concurrently with the llama wondering why it was that he'd been drawn to push the thing in the camel's outstretched hand into his mouth

---If there was no known conscious thought involved, it was then an instinctive choice and the ‘instinct’ saw that placing the sandwich in his mouth was the least hated/most liked thing to happen.

do American policemen dream of British truncheons ?
|
---Yep. On the occasions when they wish that the society that they lived in, only required the truncheons as a case of last resort for violence.
