So. Lets say your moral code states stealing is bad. But one day you rob a business and the owner family goes bankrupt.

Over time you would feel remorse you did a wrong thing, robbing a business.

But you wouldnt feel bad about the family going bankrupt.

Remorse associated with abstract values, disassociated with people.

Like that?

"If everyone lived this way, things would be OK – there would be a lot of killing, etc., but it would be understood that the rule of life was "every man for himself" and the world would go on. People would be stronger, shrewder, smarter. Evolution would accelerate. "

Yeah, as it did in those fantastic examples of human evolution, Liberia and the Congo. I imagine that'd work really well.

Your over complicating it Yohami. Its like I am almost a person but a key component is missing. I have feelings, I just can't feel you. A sociopath can't feel anything but anger.

"Even clinical narcissists are able to feel most emotions as strongly as anyone else does, from guilt and a sadness to desperate love and passion. The half that is missing is the crucial ability to understand what others are feeling (empathy.)"

From The Sociopath Next Door By Martha Stout

Jim TN,

Your over complicating it Yohami. Its like I am almost a person but a key component is missing. I have feelings, I just can't feel you. A sociopath can't feel anything but anger.

So you would feel bad for the family going bankrupt or not?
