its odd i have agreed with almost all you have posted so far but here i do feel you are wrong ... good and bad are human traits .. they only exsist where humans exsist. i know i have made bad choices .. and good ones thats what being human does .
The judgement of good v. bad is about power not human rights.
yes and no , firstly i do not think there are such think a human rights beyond our human construct of how we want others to treat us and everyone else , human rights are rule to judge good from bad , and yes that is about power , the power to make and defend ones rights .
the judgement of good or bad is not about peace and harmony , its not even about justice and rights .. its about labelling things and giving them a place in an agreed social framework .. as there are no absolute good or bad's they only have the meaning we assign them , and people will have differing view on that assignment .
if you remove judgement from human experience you will no longer have humans as we know them .. we are all about judgements .. even whenm we judge it bad to make a judgement .. you cant escape except by becoming inert ...
peace and harmony , and justice are ideals .. unreachable ,but they are vital as the give us something to measure , judge , our current state against , and hopefully strive towards ...
sad to say i do not think they are humans natural state , we are a competative race , its why we are where we are , and we would mbe a different race of beings if we ever made it there ..
peopel do not want to be equal , they like ranks , they like to see who they better than ... this is why we invent moral codes ..
