Reason is pervaded by emotions and this is what separates
people from animals. This is the feature that creates morality.
The reality of the conditions in which people find themselves is a
subject of study that aims at separating good from bad. This will
enfranchise human spirit in its pursuit of happiness.
Reality can not be relativized; real goodness and relative
goodness are measured by the amount of actual contentment. A
contented person and contented society is the ultimate
goodness.
People’s characteristics and qualifications define how they cope
in the present world. If we suppose that all individuals are
resourceful, the result would be devastating for the society as we
know it.
Everybody has friends and enemies, but as society moves
upwards, the number of friends will increase and the number of
enemies will decrease.
Everybody should do some introspection and examine their
thoughts and feelings in order to see the whole as beneficial.
Good and useful ideas should be supported and followed. The
whole will be the only relevant verifier of their usefulness and will
provide them with social acknowledgement.
