Can you judge a person? If everyone is a victim of their
circumstances can anyone be guilty? If there's no such thing as choice I mean.
Say someone commits murder, that so called crime is merely the end result of
that person's entire history. They did not make a choice as a subjective being,
like everyone else they were shaped and the shape that they were was the one
that committed murder.
Like a child they get punished by law so that hopefully they won't do it again.
They are that shape and that is a hard thing to change so perhaps murdering
again is unavoidable, hence life imprisonment is the answer.
But that doesn't mean they can be blamed. The families of the victims will
nevertheless blame the murderer. They'll think that he or she is a bad person
but the injustice isn't down to the offender; it is the way that the world is
that is the problem.
Inequality, corruption, greed, etc are big problems. Our nature gets the better
of us when we live in a perverse world like this one. People need help to find
a solution because the problem is an unnatural one.
If we learn about how our natures work and interact with our current
environment instead of winging it, we will find the answer.
