More and more each day, I realize that many aspects our lives are dictated by nothing other than human instinct and it's will to perserve or perfect the species. Beauty, love, hate, lust, and the concept of "good" and "bad" are just a few of the infinite examples of human instinct. Something considered "good" is almost always something that helps to perserve the species. Giving to the poor and helping people are considered good because they help to improve the health of other humans so they prosper and reproduce. Something considered "bad" is almost always something that helps to blight the speicies. Killing seems bad because it decreases the human population and prevents it from prospering. Emotions, in any shape or form, are mental messages that let us know if something is "bad" or "good" for us and the species. Emotions are nothing but human instinct. If you learn to detach yourself from emotions and human ways of thinking, people brand you as "cold hearted", "sociopathic", "crazy", or even "evil". If people were to take time and look at humanity from a purely animalistic point of view, they could see why they do the things they do and have a greater understanding of their own way of life. Every feeling, thought, and action we do are geared towards preserving the species. When we stray from these instincts, we tend to commit acts that are considered "bad" by other humans because they can't understand the pointlessness of their own humanity. In the end, we're just animals that are really great at being able to preserve ourselves. Too bad for the humans that don't appreciate humanity. They'll just get beleaugered and ostricized until they do what's right; commit suicide.

I think your statements are contradictory. "Committing suicide" does not "preserve the species". Are you yourself confused? You talk about humanity, but do not indicate what you believe humanity is. Maybe this is why the majority of people do NOT commit suicide, because they DO appreciate humanity.

You make some pretty good points and I agree with you about of lot of what you said, except suicide. When this question goes into voting, I will wonder if you committed suicide. Suicide, if performed by someone mentally competent, is a sign of weakness. A sign that they did not see the value of life.

We had a young man in our business commit suicide. He was 23 years old, over 7 feet tall and about 300 lbs. He was a Christian. He was so large, he could never find anyone who would date him. Finally, he met a girl that he knew was going to be his wife. They were very much in love, or so he thought, until she broke up with him. He put a shot gun in his mouth, and killed himself.

If I could have spoken with him, knowing this was his plan, I am sure I could have talked him out of it. But I did not know.
We believe, he became temporarily insane over the break up and was not rational when he died.

Survival is mans most basic instinct. When something in the mind goes wrong, survival does not matter.

Humans are what we are, humans. We are not God, we do not have His wisdom, and until we do, we will continue to act like humans.
