1) Ask yourself this question, if a tree has fallen in the amazon forest, and the is no human around, does the tree produce sound during the breaking. Well, humans are not there, but animals are there.Originally posted by tut4nkh4m3n:hey im curious to find out all the diff kinds of so called "no right and wrong" qns.

lets say when the tree is falling, i am in singapore, and a camera show me only the picture of tree falling. i cannot hear the sound, but to answer the question, is there sound produced?
to answer this question, we need to know what is sound. in basic primary school knowledge tells you that sounds requires medium and the medium vibration is the sound energy. when human ear picks up this vibration, its called hearing.
therfore my answer is that there is sound produced but there is no hearing to your question.
2) ur question is based on assumption that god exist. assuming it does, you will have to find out first whether which one is right. both can be right but so far nobody has give enuff evidence to show which one is true.
it could be that god words are truth themselves or could it be that truth lies within the issues themselves and not god , so god is just the translator. -
= is human born evil or good?Originally posted by FireIce:ren xing ben shan, or, ren xing ben e?
in philosophy, the definition of good and bad is still in debate.
in eastern society, our defintion of good and evil are inherited from elders and they inturn get from their elder, their era and so on.
Our definition are also determined by popular teachers, people in power and the history, geography and culture.
As a result, definition of good and bad are not fixed in the first place.
I think human are selfish most of the time and they offer love and help to others only if they have spare capacity and resources in general.
For the few who sacrifice their lives to save others, its a mixture of biological impulses and heroics nature of social animal and the learned behavior of seeing hero shows in our modern world.
some people help people their whole life, most people are self centred primarily. therefore, I think there is no fixed answer for this.
people become selfless and selfish depend on how their belief system are being shaped as they grow up.
From baby, its belief system is very little , and its a pretty young stage where they are dependent on caregiver for help and food, so we should not really say are they evil or not to cry for food or attention. They are just acting out their biological instinct. -
