I hear your God Chico has got excellent self-control: his creatures are killing each other in his name, yet he would not lift a finger to do anything.

What's that saying

about pointing 1 finger at someone else means your pointing 3 fingers at yourself?
Projection, possibly?

And what has bought on this little outburst Chico? Someone wouldn't share their dollie mixtures with you?

I know I will regret asking you this but, as long as you harm no-one else, what is wrong with looking after number one?

p.s. if the answer will involve quotes from the bible/alpha course please ignore question

I suggest it is in part because the charity that is forced on us is highly unnatural. In tribal societies (draws on extensive expertise from watching a few things on TV) people look after each other because they know or at least know of each other and also know that when they are in need they will be helped in turn.

In our society we are obliged to care for those we do not know regardless of their deserts in accord with the whims of a remote administration and will often find no reciprocality due to the application of daft rules.

I wish you had enough self control not to greedily hog the forum with your hate filled rantings. Bloody selfish that's wot it is.
