So it is written someone once said you're not to blame for being the person you were born as. The faults you make and the problems you cause are linked to life and not to you although there's a world that does blame you. You didn't choose to be born so only the lack of care and instruction by the fate that brought you here can be blamed for what you do wrong.

Are we justified to do wrong because of that? No!

Am looking forward to your replies.

Consciousness is primary and permeates the universe. Everything else is a manifestation of it.

For example?

You know what they say...Hindsight is 20/20



You didn't choose to be born so only the lack of care and instruction by the fate that brought you here can be blamed for what you do wrong.


Is "free will" real? If so, how real?

What does it mean to do wrong? Is a mistake, a miscalculation or an accident a wrong?

See, we live in a world where people still have to ask what it is to do wrong. Is there a right thing to do and who's to blame?

How can anyone know what they do not yet know?

So do you never do anything wrong?

It's hard if not impossible to decipher a fitting reaction to that.

Yes, but that doesn't affect my awareness of right and wrong.

Education or indoctrination? Which one most likely teaches right from wrong?

Indoctrination is the process of teaching a person or group to accept a set of beliefs uncritically.

Believing that there is something wrong with the who you were born as, and it may or may not be your fault, sounds like the product of indoctrination to me.

I would say education. Indoctrination is a way of forcing your will upon another. Education will allow you to make a choice, based on what you see and hear.

Right and wrong seems to me to be universal truth. If you think about it, you know what to do. It’s really not that hard, unless you have no conscience.

When you're not right for being born wrong you would be discarded and if you were born perfect some would discard you too.

If only things were so simple, people do things they know are wrong all the time, but usually as a means to an end which they believe will bring about some good. People also do things that they think are right but inadvertently end up doing something wrong.. There are so many different examples. And so many different shades or degrees of right and wrong.

I think this is why Jesus among others taught forgiveness, the main reason for that is, once you forgive someone they no longer have the power to hurt you.

Of course somebody or group carrying out wrongs needs to be prevented as we are best able, but we need to have wisdom and context and above all understanding in all our actions if we wish to act rightly.

That's right, everybody sees the light.

If you have to ask if something is wrong or not it most likely is. In my opinion. a reply to: Untun

It may not be your fault... but it is your own responsibility


Seems simple, but ego can get in the way... a lot
