I know life's not fair, but isn't it pretty ridiculous that some kids are dying in Africa from AIDS and other people have good health and more money than they can handle?

It's also pretty unfair that some are mentally handicapped and others are geniuses.

Also, some guys have no trouble with the ladies while others are neurotic and have to work really hard.

Some people have talent others don't and have to work hard.

Man I'm pissed, but I don't believe in God so I'm not sure what to be pissed off at.

Is there a moral compass built into humans?

For example I give a hypothetical situation:

A human child is abducted out of the maternity ward by aliens and taken back to their planet.

This child is raised by the aliens as their own, he is not mistreated according to their cultural values.

The aliens society views murder, rape, torture, kidnapping, etc. as acceptable behaviour.

This child is then returned to earth after thirty years on the liens planet.


Would this human be horrified by his new home (the alien planet) and be a 'normal' but ‘screwed up’ human when returned, or would he be exactly like the aliens? Does this mean that humans do or do not have a built in moral compass? What does this mean for our society and moral codes?

Please explain your answers. I thank you in advance for your insight.

The all advanced countries and even metropolitan cities of India have legal red light areas. And due to the existance of these, there are sex crimes lesser than the cities, where the red light areas don't exist. Then why not Government allow sex business legally in all cities in specified red light areas ?
