A lot of people have crazy ideas about how the world works. Religious people seem to think there is some external force keeping things mostly in check. The truth is, the way the world works at the moment is as good as it is ever going to get. The good and bad are in perfect equilibrium.

Steal a dollar off me. From my persepective I am down a dollar and have been cheated. From your perspective you are a dollar up. From a third person's view, before and after the theft there are two people and a dollar present.

Religious types say there are three general types of actions. Moral (the 'correct' action), immoral (the 'incorrect' action) and amoral (morality doesn't come into play, unrelated, ie: eating meat). So according to the church, killing and eating a cow is amoral and thus acceptable, while killing and eating a person is not. This would only be true if there was such an ever-present third party (or God, as some like to call it) that classifies these actions under different headers.

The truth is, as soon as people wake up and realize they shouldn't need a big-brother 'God' watching over them to make certain they don't do something which will adversely affect another person, the better the world will be. You shoot someone, score one for you, score negative one for them. Your action had an equal reaction. You have shot someone and that person has been shot, giving the whole sum of actions a big zero.

Lao Tse thought of that about a million years ago in the DaoDeJing.

Homer: That's nice, Lisa, but we're not in astronomy class. We're in
