@Teufel,
I agree.
There is No Good or Evil, Right or Wrong, other than in the eye of the beholder and their, particular, moral inclinations.
And opposing 'emotions' are (Causaly) bound - Love/Hate, Anger/Temperance, Joy/Sadness, Pride/Shame, Hope/Grief, etc.
They are amplified by their own inheritance (Preset-Functions).
ie - The More One's Shame - The More One's Pride.
Hope is the want (Desire) for a more favourable future - Grief is the want (Desire) for a more favourable past.
Neither the past or future exist.
A material sojourn without emotion - Is one without feeling or compassion.
Why would a mother rear her offspring without emotional attachment?
Why not just bulk them up and eat them?
I'm not sure a species would get very far if it were absent of emotional construct.
I believe it is disgusting that children are, without consent or recognition, paraded to a global audience in such way as forementioned.
I care Not for the Audience, Nor for its effect on civilisation - Nor do I care for civilisation.
And the 'metaphorical' (Pheonix) rises from 'Ashes', Not flickering embers.
I, still have a preference toward putting a smile on others' faces - Rather than a frown.
Good Chat.
Mark..
