The knowledge that we know as good and bad are mearly behaviors that we learn through external and internal stimuli. If we took out what we know as good and bad, then we take out what is our behaviors (including emotions). If we take out our behaviors, then we take out any concept of opinion, which then we would take out any type of judgment. Which then as a result, do we become robots?

We only assume we know what is good and bad. We take this as being knowledge that is human; one of the many things that separates us from the beasts. Without it we would be just as the rest of the animals and it is still us to debate on whether or not they have emotions. I see more automatons in today's civilization with our so called perception of good and bad than is in the rest of the life in this world. I find it interesting that you believe if the good and bad is removed then that eliminated all behaviors, emotions and opinions.

If man does not know good or bad and can't think for himself he is no longer autonomous and in some theories this is definitely a qualifier in the true nature of the human race. So does this mean he is no longer human? Honestly I have a hard time even thinking catatonic individuals have no internal guides. This is stick in the fact it is hard to research something that can't respond.

Real and factual knowledge is important tool in our interaction with everything. We need these knowledge like languages and dialect for communication, names,technology, science and many more that is important in our everyday lives.
Psychological knowledge is the one that makes us confuse and become fragmented in our views. Psychological knowledge is always subjective.( what is good for me might be bad for you, what is good for the group might be bad to other groups)These are belief and faith about organized religion, superiority of race, feeling of being exclusive and unique, pride of having a lot of knowledge and lot of interpretations about how to live right.
If we can see this and use our factual knowledge in its right perspective then our chaotic world will be wholly. (not robotic)
