Is it the duty of the strong to protect the weak or subjugate them?

@SW-User any yet our later brain, can override that primal self.
we CAN do better, sometimes DO often we fail.
I think we can keep trying.
it is the collapse of reason,, into emotion, that makes this so

@Amylynne Does doing better hinder our individual selves and our society to growing to its full potential?

@Arzawa i think it is the veru nature of growing to full potential, that we do "good" the question might be "good for what?"

@Amylynne you sound like an optimist of the highest caliber, i am the exact opposite. the reality of us doesn't leave much space for hope and optimism but one can dream

@SW-User i am NO Optimist! all i have learned from the study of history is that most times, most places greed violence and oppression win.
Our world is demonstrating this in our time.
I despair, that what we have gained in America, is being eroded by those that crave power over others.
we can only choose to act, and I suggest that we do so, with great caution, and reciprocity

@Amylynne what we can do is to save ourselves

@SW-User Yes, and those who have proven themselves worthy of our company and support, that is [i]FAR from[/i] everyone.
