is the reality like we know it?

Question

i mean, do we think and act like we do just because we was born and raised in this kind of society? and our morals and life principles would be totally different if the society would have been different?

Answer 1

Yes, completely.

Simple example: IT would be fair to say that inately, the Romans and Greeks have the same capacity for thinking and wisdom as we do.

To them, slavery was perfectly acceptable.
To us, it is an abomination.

If we were born 2 milenia ago, we'd figure slavery to be just fine.

Answer 2

"We" create our "society" even if only in a microcosm, and affect it in effect, by how we proceed through it, respond and react to it, and others, and accept or tolerate that anothers "reality" may differ from our own.

In the process of "learning" we also create, or accept our realities, as we experience life. Other than heavy duty fantasizing, Drug altered states, or dreaming,,,every experience is very much an immediate reality to every individual.

Answer 3

We are a direct result of our upbringing, culture, and social status. A person raised in a rich society will act different than a poor person because of the social stimuli that they are exposed too. there are exception but not many.

Answer 4

I think that a lot of how we think is founded on the morals of our parents and friends.
If we were brought up in a society who, say, thought murder was acceptable in society, it wouldn't hurt us as much. just an example.
But yeah, i believe that the way you are brought up has a lot to do with how you think later on.

Answer 5

We have instincts, genetic memory, and the seed of the knowledge of God in us. The rest is learned or inspired. In our history, populations were raised for generations as slaves. Yet they still and always would seek to be free.
An exeriment was tried in Kampuchea, where all of the people previously educated were killed. The population remaining in what is now Cambodia still struggled for their freedom. Some things in us can't be changed.
