I noticed the thread "Has Christianity hurt or helped civilization more?" And I realized there was one very crucial flaw in this topic as well as in it's contributions. Dagnabitt, if you're out there you should definitely help me out here with your philosophy degree.
Good and bad (hurt or help) are interesting concepts. They are something that I am surprised humans have claimed to know.
Good and bad depend on the individual. They do not exist as an absolute value. To ask if something is 'bad' or 'good' is to ask the impossible. To ask their opinion is, on the other hand, very possible.
A little help on this topic - I do not pretend to completely grasp this idea and would enjoy reading some opinions and knowledge of it.
