Do BAD and GOOD people actually exist or is it just us?

We have often heard from people that people are not actually bad it is just circumstances that make them what they are. Many of us may have often wondered as to what exactly do we mean by bad it’s just social norms that define which act is good and which is bad, for example the constitution says that murdering a person is a crime but is it really? Like we say that we should not differentiate between men and women, that both men and women are equal, that we should not differentiate between people of different religion and caste and race, but why doesn’t anyone say that we should not differentiate between the living forms, that all living things are equal. If so then, well killing an animal too should be a crime since killing humans is one. So our constitution is biased towards humans? By now I am pretty sure that you are judging me, I do not deny you to do so, do judge me but only after you read the complete article. You might think that I am against non-vegetarians, yes? Okay then here comes an argument I do not expect anyone would have heard before. Wheat and rice are obtained from crops which were alive before you harvested them. Crops too are living creatures, aren’t they? This is a topic I wouldn’t want to comment on any more than this. So back to good and bad, how does it work?

Good and bad are only the product of our conscience. There are some things which when we do or think about doing our conscience tells us is BAD and some other things where it is tells us is GOOD. And our conscience is largely the product of us. Let’s see how was our conscience developed? When we were very young we didn’t have many decisions to make but as we grew older the decisions we had to make kept on increasing and with it we got more and more control of who we want to be what we want to shape ourselves into but the first time the decision was made that is the basic capability of our decision making was shaped by the circumstances we had faced when we were very young and how we were brought up and after that we were handed over the control of the steering wheel of our life slowly and steadily. Therefore conscience is an individual product. Good and bad are the way we individually see things. And the constitution, the norms of the society were made according to the major public’s conscience’s definition of good.

So well we have two options: Either we could keep blaming our childhood circumstances for framing our conscience the wrong way or we could either just steer our way towards what we want to be and not care in which direction our childhood had us start off as finally what matters is the direction in which you are heading right now, isn’t it? And for us to be able to steer ourselves in the direction we wish to go we firstly need to realize that we are currently going in the wrong direction so just wake up and ask yourself if this is the direction you wish to proceed.
