People often do things because they feel like it.
But of course you also thought about it.
And because you 'chose' to do the 'right', and the recipients did benefit....
You would be deemed...'rational', 'social', 'morally upright', a 'philanthropist'.
Planning doesn't mean you had to write it done first.
But if you had done so...the scheme of things might have gone better,
and even more people would have benefited from your benevolence.
Now if you were driven purely by your feelings....would you not be more an animal?
Or do you prefer Dr.Jekyll / Mr. Hyde?
No, I did not "think" about it, I do it spontaniously, this is unvalid after thought, I am trying to rationalize my actions even if it was spontanious.
I am an animal by the way, Homo sapien sapien to be specific, a Naked Ape.
A serious question related to the topic Thief, How do you relate to the fact that the more secular a people are, the more giving helpful and less problems they have, whiles the more religious they are the more STDs, Violence and Poverty there is.
It seems Religion seem to somehow be directly linked to problems, of course, it could be something else but for some reason Religion seems linked to "bad", and secular societies to "good", they do good, give most help, have the most safe and stable societies and so on.
What do you think about this?
