What if our brain's architecture limits our ability to comprehend and consider our moral bearing?
What if many of us don't have a sufficient brain architecture?
Can
We
Judge
?
BTW, intelligence can be demonstrated without the complexity required for a sound moral position. I.e. Intelligent people can be immoral.
I'm reading Ray Kurzweils' book The Singularity is Nearer.
He's stated that our brains have 6 levels of processing that, incrementally, build our ability to think abstractly.
Idea: Maybe not everyone has the last layer fully enabled. Maybe that's why some people can't comprehend certain topics nor have empathy.
They just never developed the wiring.
It's phyiological. Maybe not moral.
I don't think there has been a person with as much ability to have such a large impact on the culture and future of a large country than Donald Trump this week.
He can announce a call to arms and initiate a civil war.
He can make a call for unity and calm and return us to moderation.
He can make either decision, and he has a history of doing the former more than the latter.
Hey @AskTheDevil,
Is it a good thing?
Or a bad thing?
That Trump survived?
And
Is the shooter
A good person?
Or
A bad person?

“I’m also pleased to announce that as we speak, the transfer of F-16 jets is underway, coming from Denmark, coming from the Netherlands. And those jets, those jets will be flying in the skies of Ukraine this summer to make sure that Ukraine can continue to effectively defend itself against the Russian aggression,” Blinken said at the NATO Public Forum in Washington, DC.

The wife is home from biz travels! Yay!
She was appalled that I ate all of the snacks I said I purchased the day she left.
I didn't tell her I purchased even more and ate them, too.
I also didn't tell her I skipped dinner last night and stayed up until 2am drinking martinis.
I've become a really shitty bachelor.
She can't leave anymore.
I won't make it.
