Lets be entirely honest here. Why are people worth helping? We are a backwards and pathetic race. Over evolved, megalomaniacle chimps.

Not to mention those who specificaly tormented me (going back to the original thread topic), I see no reason why they should not suffer.

KMFDM, I think you answer your own question. "Why are people worth helping?", because "there is some good out there".

If we desire retribution, (eye for an eye or one-upsmanship), then of course that FEEDS the "backwards and pathetic race, over evolved, megalomaniacle" view you have of humanity. Put more simply, you become the enemy. Wouldn't it be better for an individual to rise above? To NOT become what he/she despises? And you DO despise those who have tormented you, don't you? So why would you want to adopt tactics or mindsets that equal that which you hate???

Now, taking it out on others - those who did not torture you - that's over and above retribution and more into the realm of sadistic pleasure. This is what fills the world with 'broken' humanity.

So, I insist it IS worth helping just 1 person. One less broken human = 2 less = 4 less and so on.

comments/criticism? Just looking for some logic.
