meepok's moral responsibility post

yay another long-winded reply so i've decided to post it here. well i've thot of this qns b4. here's my thots:

i AGREE. firstly, u dun even get to choose whether u wanna be born onto his planet. Then, u can't even choose what u wish to experience, whether by family background or limited by where u were born. Therefore u cannot choose what u see, and think is right. N with that, ur personality is shaped as such.

E.g. u are born in a happy family with no quarrels VS u're born in a family that is broken up n wrecked by crimes n all. Or u are born into a majority race VS born into a minority race with different culture n values. etc etc etc

With all these experience tt u go through with no choice at all, ur personality is shaped. n therefore whatever u do in future is based on what u believe in n so on.

Even in cases whereby u feel u shld do in a way but choose to do it another way, it is due to (err-hem sociology again) society pressures, norms, and so on. like u feel u shld rape the chio bu in front of ur eyes but choose not to cuz society will condemn u and u'll be put to jail by the govt.

N even when u feel u shld rape the woman, is it really a choice? maybe u were brought up in an environment where rapes happen all the time, or perhaps rape is nothing, or perhaps u were raped b4 n u think its right, etc etc. Therefore u think rape is ok. Or even if u dun think rape is right, somehow or another the idea has creeped into ur head, and whether u choose to accept it or not, depends on how ur environment has affected ur beliefs on wats right n wats wrong.

something liddat la. Agree anot. butthen again its a lame excuse to blame everything u do on ur anscestors n the ppl arnd u la. though it may seem like its not ur fault at all..

Precisely, the thing though is that you can't even blame ur ancestors and the people ard u, cuz they are not responsible for it as well.
