Philip Zimbardo: The Truth about Good and Evil

Philip Zimbardo argues that there are no fixed boundaries between "good" and "bad" people.

Come to Christ for true, definite and everlasting salvation. God loves you and had paid the price for your sin.

Good people don't "turn evil" for heaven's sake! Good people are people. They are imperfect, they make mistakes. They do not "turn evil". They may misunderstand, act out of fear, or give in to temptation, but they are still good people. Do not believe in "good people" or "bad people". That is too simplistic. All people want to do good, basically.

[ahagamama]

We do not have to be victims of circumstances. What we think is not truth, it is simply what we think. We each are responsible for our thoughts, because they lead to actions. But most people are never taught that, and instead, believe their thoughts are reality. Your thoughts are not reality! They are simply the way your mind sees the world and they are shaped by your experiences. To see this truth will lead to understanding, but most people don't take the time to see their habitual thought patterns or to free themselves from them.

There is no good, no evil, no light... there is ONLY POWER!

To uphold: Justice, Mercy, Goodfaith, this is Love, this is to be 'Good', , , but to violate these is to be at War with Humanity, one's self, even the Universe, this is being 'Bad'.
Either one upholds these principles & is 'Lawful, or one violates these principles and is 'Unlawful'.
There is no going back and forth, for even being 'Bad' in ignorance, we learn and chose which path thereafter that we will walk. Willful ignorance is a choice to do ''Bad', just as a choice to be passive in the presence of wrongdoing is to allow it to happen, making you party to the crime.
History is really a War between Empaths & Psychopaths, with the 2/3rds sheeple being the audience. Empaths sacrifice to protect the innocent against the lying murderous exploits of the psychopaths. The sheeple follow who-ever is most charismatic or frightening at the moment.

My hero. Reminds me of my other hero a little in appearance/manerisms (Billy West).

[rayray]

It's because you have a good from God in you and the devil trys to rise above Gods throne .

[belaireguy]

The existence of the "natural" dichotomy of good and evil correlating with the existence of a god is impossible and your demons as well. This impartial, indiscriminate, natural reality to demand a god as noted by religions to be omni-everything and benevolent cannot exist as they are defined. Thinking otherwise is an abuse of the imaginary mind which will then be engaged in an ongoing battle with the mind's intellect whereby a balance must be found between the two.

One doing good is a choice, one doing evil is a choice, which supports the natural reality we live under. We do not get a choice when the natural world decides to take us, that is just the reality.

Dr Philip Zimbardo who run the STANFORD PRISON EXPERIMENT should not have legal clearance to run either "shows" or sell books on his self-imagined cruelty. He is simply insane as well as a felon.

Forgot to reference the impact of our inherited biology (i.e. DNA). But good video nonetheless.
