Torture and the Love of God
    #14147955 - 03/19/11 11:11 AM (12 years, 11 months ago)

When you see videos like this how does it impact your spiritual feelings (if you have them)?

I ask out of curiosity because to my mind at least it seems difficult to maintain faith or trust in the goodwill of people (or the cosmic game) if this sort of behavior is so common. What if far out in the galaxy on cluster 42 there is a planet which evolved with torture at the center of its "advanced" civilization? When I see all of the recent torture that has come about from the Arab revolutions, it makes me think we just stumbled onto our scientific innovations by fluke. That, or the rise of intelligent machines and technology is some emergent, uncontrolled phenomena that is birthing through us, rather than from us. Or maybe I'm the idiot for assuming good ideas are associated with 'good' morality. Ironically, it just seems that our humanness is in fact antithetical to human progress.

It's likely true.:sad:

The more knowledge, the more grief.
