Guest guest Posted May 1, 2000 Report Share Posted May 1, 2000 It is the real nature of every man, and he is struggling to express it in various ways; otherwise, why are there so many ethical codes ? Where is the explanation of all ethics ? One idea stands out as the center of all ethical systems, expressed in various forms, namely, doing good to others. The guiding motive of mankind should be charity towards men, charity towards all animals But these are all various expressions of that eternal truth that, " I am the universe; this universe is one. " Or else, where is the reason ? Why should I do good to my fellowmen ? Why should I do good to others ? What compels me ? -- ---------------- Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow mindedness. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men & things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one corner of the earth all one's lifetime.
