Directions:Many situations have occured through history that question Man's (human beings) ability to treat his own kind in moral way.(i.e.wars,murder,crime,the holocaust,terrorism,etc..)

I would like for you to develop a theory to explain how these incidents could have occurred .Relate your answer to the concept of morality.Try to be profound (deep thinking) and creative as possible .Pool some of your knowledge about the nature of man,leadership,power,authority,and group behavior.

So i was thinking that thought is not seperable from sensory experience. In order to think, you must have something to think about. Now that's all dandy until i thought of math and science. We don't see numbers, we don't see exponential functions, etc... We come up with that, induction and deduction. So where do YOU think it comes from? Are we programmed with a sense of math and science? Or... what other reasons can you think of?

"The bird fights its way out of the egg. The egg is the world. Who would be born first must destroy a world. The bird flies to God. That God's name is Abraxas" - Hermann Hesse, Demian

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraxas_stones
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carl_Jung

I am interested particularly in comments relating to the third sentence here ("Who would be born first must destroy a world.") and how it might relate to Jungian psychology.

Idealism for transcedentlists like Emerson is about balancing between the material world and the sprititual one. It is about universal ideas which make you transcend time and space to attain metaphysical cosciousness and immortality. Do you agree with what they say do you think it is true or not( idealism) and why you think that?

many people have answered my questions about is a person responisble if they knowingly put them selves in danger. But only one has answered the question " Why is a women an exception to the maxim " you are reasponsible if you put yourself in danger"
examples a guy is responsible if he puts himself in physical danger by pushing over hells angels bikes

but a girl is not responisble if she goes scantely clad to the same hells angels rooms who are drunk and horny and is raped Why is the guy responsible and not her why does the maxim apply to him and not her
