Aside from the 'half the galaxy comment', he's right. For my own part, I will offer the following statements: Good&Evil is not the same thing as Right&Wrong. Washu and Tsunami acting 'human' to save Tenchi is probably because they've spent 20'000 and 700+ years as humans. According to Tsunami, it wasn't her that wouldn't back down, it was Sasami. |

Happy Thanksgiving guys! :3 Hope you had/are having a nice day ^-^ Was just a normal day here. Anyways, SPK, I don't think that was a very constrictive contribution to that discussion. |

Right and wrong is often just a set of rules humans set up and abide by as social animals to be able to live together relatively peacefully and minimize power struggles. That is why the same systems (religions) often emphasized a self-serving authoritarian structures alongside their morales. For instance - murder. Humans take each other's lives sacredly, but how many people here ate turkey or some other meat tonight? Did that animal not live once? Most people would step on a colony of ants without thinking. Again, killing, without an iota of thought. What do you think Choushin view humans as? They probably aren't even ants. They're cosmic microbes at best. Or how about "stealing". That presupposes you can own property which is dubious at best. In reality, we can control property for a temporary time, and so that we don't have to be up 24/7 protecting our stuff, human societies just agree to label taking it stealing and punishable. Suppose the Megami made everything in the first place. Should they have to honor your claim or will them? Probably not. And as to property. Say a person sees an ant mound and kick it, does it occur to them that they stole property, vandalized it, or any such thing? Probably not. Choushin could view destroying planets the same way, destroying ant mounds. "Ah", you say "But animals are not on the same level as humans. We're self-aware, they're not." Yeah, but what if animals were to humans, as humans are to Choushin. It might be so. It's been made abundantly clear that the Choushin came down because of Tenchi, an equal or greater. They didn't come down for anyone else. They might view the others with some genuine affection, but it may be closer to what one feels for a pet than what one feels for a family member for all we know. I like fairy tales. I hope Choushin are nice and morale from my POV. My entire objection to Ryoko is her attitude and bullying ways, that she has no sense of "right or wrong". But to talk about good vs evil with them doesn't add up with choushin. There is no general consensus for them, they ARE the general consensus - might makes right. Just like humans dominate earth and decide all other animals are fair game but human life is sacred. If the ants think otherwise, they can get their mound destroyed much easier than Ryoko destroyed 60-odd planets in her perpetrated genocides in search for a good time. |
