Everyone is basically selfish and thats humanities main drive based on that assumption if being fair to you makes them happier then they will do it, all you need to do next is create the system that will align the incentives in a way for people to value fairness and thats where religion steps in. <br />how fair is religion? pretty good if you are in the circle, horrible if you are out of it.<br />so in conclusion humans are sometimes fair, while life is never fair... it just happens.<br />Least thats how i see it.bambamhttp://bambamworld.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3691535.post-56704378632969729212009-12-17T14:26:50.306+08:002009-12-17T14:26:50.306+08:00AA- JD,
When it comes to life's tests and the...AA- JD,<br /><br />When it comes to life's tests and the 'fairness' factor, I've learned that the best way to look at them is to look at our reaction.<br /><br />If the reaction is bitterness, anger, or rage, the test was sent as a punishment.<br /><br />If the reaction is patience and forbearance, the test was sent to cleanse the person and wash away the sins.<br /><br />If the reaction is delight and upbeat acceptance, since the test is merely another manifestation of God's will, then the test was sent as a means to raise him in the ranks and bring him closer to God.<br /><br />Of course, the gray area comes in when children get involved. My take is that the test in that case is for the adults related to the child being afflicted.Naeem:https://www.blogger.com/profile/15397380149160556040noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3691535.post-67265881651514671302009-12-17T01:35:20.863+08:002009-12-17T01:35:20.863+08:00AA
