I would prefer to say that "people have evolved..." and that "things have properties that can be used". To me using the word creation implies too much of religious agency. Was that an implied assumtion in your quote?
Where do animals fit in, and why aren't you at least a vegetarian then? Also, claiming that humans were made for a specific purpose implies intelligent design, which is the opposite of progressivism.
Fifth grade English teacher great advice when writing a story for her. “You can’t love anything that can’t love back. You can rely like your bike, but say you love it. You can love your puppy because it can love you back “
Not cool. If you keep that up you may find yourself on a block list. Rightfully so. Disagreement is awesome and healthy. Conversation kicks ass. Vicious rabid dog attacks are not welcome. Save that bullshit for X or Facebook or whatever, mrguything.
I agree with you 100%. People evolved.
I am squarely on the side of evolution. I believe in the theory of evolution.
Survival of the fittest.
Natural selection.
etc. etc.
I am not an expert on the topic, though.
That’s an oddly specific part of our entire existence that you seem to be focused on there, bud. Within your focus, you are missing where offspring need to survive and thrive for a parent to be “successful”. Care is a large part of that. You should definitely try out survival of the fittest though
And in the old days why do you think poorer people had so many kids. Hell my mother had 16 brothers and sisters starting around the 1920s
Because if you had enough some might make it
Well don't I love you to pieces!! I entered a Bardo of Uselessness as an act of defiance. To get out from under my indoctrination that said my having no use means I do not deserve to be fed or loved! Uselessness is an act of defiance!!! Add joy and you gotta revolution!
Stop preaching the dem party platform we already Know all about how you use people. YOu used the families of the Victims to get Justice and then you denied it to them for political gain. abcdeFU>
There are two drives to human nature. Greed and Compassion. Without both of them we fail. We need to be self interested to some degree. But we do not survive without others helping each other. And yet we let corporations governed only by greed curate our societies. We need to back up and fix things.
Much love to you blessed be, thank you so very much for sharing, I hope you have a lovely Christmas 🎄 🧚♀️✨️❤️...aww, absolutely Happy Honica, much love to you all blessed be to you with all my heart ❤️...
I agree. People evolved. And eventually, in a few million years, we'll evolve into more biologically advanced beings. Well, if we don't destroy our planet to maximize shareholder value.
Evolution is the truth.
Ppl are more important than things. Unfortunately some ppl love their luxury and capitalist consumption more. The person you deport/murder/alienate may have been the one to cure cancer, donate an organ, or solve a problem plaguing mankind.
"Love one another as I have loved you."
Uh huh. Flipping some words around does not make it the truth, just a meaningless chiasmus that looks like the truth to some people because you presented it on what looks like parchment.
Also, were not 'created', we evolved from other creatures, and the quotation is a misquotation anyway.
Well, I might agree to a point, from a humanitarian standpoint. But. This frasing suggests there is an over arching plan for humans and things, which suggests there is a superior will to it all.
When you break that down, you will always end up in religiousity, which is just plain stupid. The quote is just enforcing the powers of religion and downplaying the free mind and spirit
We have Madison Ave. to thank for that.
And now, with social media and algorithms
it's on steroids.
Solution?? Maybe is to late for humanity. WW3 is looming just around the corner.
Because my animal loving friends don’t seem to think so. It is my belief that placing animals on a par with humans just shortchanges the humans and doesn’t lead to better treatment of animals. Just makes animals house slaves.
I don’t really get what you’re saying.
As for my own POV, I try to live in a way that minimizes suffering for other living creatures, while recognizing I could do so much more—and that one can never eliminate suffering. But I can choose compassion.
Real. They exchanged the truth of God for a lie and began to worship the created things rather than the Creator; the Golden Rule was to love your neighbor as yourself.
The main issue here is at its core- to people who use others, that’s because people *are* just things to them, for one reason or another. Lack of empathy seemingly being the main reason.

Why do i get the feelings you think it's ok to use some pepole or to force them to act a certain way?
> According to Kant, to treat another merely as a means is to do something morally impermissible; it is to act wrongly.

I just want a health care system like every other modern nation.

They evolved.
Love is part of how they evolved and part of the consequences of evolution.

Hey baby!
Why do you ask?
