Altruism...is it really that bad? I've saw that one day while playing one of the best games ever, Bioshock, and it really hit me..with the idea of Ayn Rand's individualism, unrestrained.
During the game, I saw one of the banners quote " Altruism is the root of all wickedness". This made me thought 'huh...but doesn't altruism means to completely care for others? There can't be any problems unless it has gone too far and or the person doesn't want any help...'
About Me
- WATCHMONK
- San Jose, California, United States
- I am a student..a scholar..a knowledge seeker..whatever it is that you people call it these days. Also a "Philoso-geek" as stated by Tim. I am a spiritualist type of person. I enjoy the strangest things such as the sound of foot steps on wood, the old fashioned 1920s-1960s, especially if its fiction or noir, and the manners of the yester-decades. I am a lover, I love everything, everyone, and God. My character is of a humanitarian, diplomat, teacher, and a pacifist as defined by the Meyer-Briggs Personality test. (If you are happen to be interested, I am an ENFJ or an INFJ-I took the long version and then a short version, respectively). I have a knack for starting things and never finishing them.. Complicated, I am not, but Simple, I am not. I seem to transcend between the two depending on the environment or I "hesitate". As a side note; I have multiple Aliases due to the "unnecessary" naming by my friends, myself, and for fun. In this blog, you may find truth, or at least the process of finding truth. However it may be, I mean no harm to anyone reading. I am merely rationalizing and writing down my impulsive thoughts.
