The End of Evil? Neuroscientists suggest there is no such thing. Are they right?

I’m sorry that reality may scare you. People who lack a conscience will still do bad things whether or not they think they have free will.

RH point is well taken. Like cloning and so many other endeavors of humanity to have claimed the infinite understanding of a discipline, we usually, later, sometimes too much later, come to the understanding that complexity, is well, complex…and “we” didn’t grasp the…..complexity of it all.

Most certainly, when scientists thought it was a good thing for electro-shock therapy to solve such problems of mental “illness.” Then let’s not forget thinks like DDT and thalidomide, etc…that were the answers.

On top of that, who will decide the the % of entangled/missing “circuitry” that is a dead sure indicator of someone who will definitely do bad things and to what degreee and then how do we convict in the future? “Minority Report,” albeit a movie, tried to deal with this.

Complexity beyond our grasp…..
