    Default Ah! Breakthrough!

    My father, a socialist, has, for his whole life, believed that he should help people out when he felt like it... believed it was his duty.

    He would constantly try and help people turn their lives around, trying to turn the losers into not-such-losers.

    But, no matter how much energy he put into it, he sees now that not a SINGLE goddamned loser he helped, became not-such-a-loser.

    My father has been idiotically generous, because it was what he thought was the right thing. It was his "purpose". And, in the end, nobody gained anything, and he lost alot of his own life.

    And tonight the only person he believed he had turned around, his first success story, turned right back around, as I knew he would.

    Finally, his faith in humanity is shattered, and I am victorious, again, proven right by human nature itself. This is three. Three people believed that people are good, that they can be helped. Three people have glanced at the light because of me.

    I am GOD.



    And for those of you who don't See, if it is our duty to help everyone else, why is it not their duty to not burden us?
    The powers delegated by the proposed Constitution to the federal government are few and defined. Those which are to remain in the State governments are numerous and indefinite. The former will be exercised principally on external objects, as war, peace, negotiation, and foreign commerce; with which last the power of taxation will, for the most part, be connected. The powers reserved to the several States will extend to all the objects which, in the ordinary course of affairs, concern the lives, liberties, and properties of the people, and the internal order, improvement, and prosperity of the State. - James Madison

    I know, you mean to say "I", but I'm punishing you for using the wrong word.

    If you want an answer you'll have to ask again. That's your punishment.

    This is a sickening story actually.
    Not at all.

    It's glorious.

    Destroying someones faith in humanity is evil, especially your dad...
    Not at all. In doing so I've helped him more than anyone else ever has.

    I'm not saying you are one, I don't know enough about you, but based on this post... damn, son. Cynical much?
    You're not? Then you're not paying attention.

    Those who are are because they are.

    It's that simple.

    This somehow reminds me of my Cynical, Communist, People-hating, family-hating friend.

    Well I guess that I can tell him that he is no longer alone in this world...

    What is this incoherent rambling even supposed to mean? You were so obviously high when you wrote this it's a wonder the post wasn't disallowed by mods on the grounds of promoting drug-use.

    Ah, a human nature thread? Moved to the EMM.

    Personally, I believe humans are selfish and greedy things consumed in themselves. ("And the life of man, solitary, nasty, poor, brutish, and short"). However, this very nature can make them good; it is in every person's interest to behave towards the ideal Utopian society as that would benefit every individual.
