Title: We should all treat others inhumanely
Post by: indifferent betty on December 19, 2008, 04:22:35 AM
I hate the word "Humane".
It is in dire need of a redefinition. When we see the atrocities that humans are capable of, surely treating someone or something "Humanely" is a terrible thing to do.

Just a thought.

Yeah, it's a stupid word.  Let's make fun of it.

Or use it in a mindfuck, like Citizens for Humane Ethnic Cleansing.

Sounds like Mark Twain's "The Mysterious Stranger"

The angel (named Satan, of course) points out that humans, since they have the Moral Sense, are the lowest and most monstrous of all living things. It's bad enough that we know much of what we do is wrong, and it's worse when we do it willfully. Thus, Satan gets annoyed when someone refers to another person's behavior as "brutish," since that is an insult to the brutes (animals).

I think it is supposed to remind us that we aspire to a higher level of compassion than that which we usually display.

Most humans don't act human most of the time.

No reason to blame actual humans for that.

But if they are in the majority, and they are human, then surely that follows that they are acting human?

There are none.

There are Overmen™, and there are domesticated primates.

There is nothing in between.

and TGRR is not domesticated.

There are also undomesticated primates, which are neither Overmen nor domesticated.

Their lack of submission comes not of understanding, but of mere impulse.  It makes them very predictable.
