GOOD and BAD should be abolished from languages
good and bad are two words which created by the dualism philosophy.
Dualism is a time-honored philosophical position which is exemplified by:
- Pre-Socratics' appearance/reality distinction
- Plato's forms/world distinction
- Hume's fact/value distinction
- Kant's empirical phenomena/transcendental noumena distinction
- Heidegger's being/time distinction
- Russell's existence/subsistence distinction
- Descartes mind/matter distinction
- hot and cold
- light and dark
- good and bad
- transparent and opaque
The same concept to light and dark. Dark is somewhere which lakes light. There is nothing can emit dark. It is just a place which relatively not so light.
The concept to good and bad is quite different than the examples above. The above examples are observable and objective. Good and bad is subjective. The root of good and bad is merely liked or disliked by someone. There is nothing which everyone think is good. However, because of the universal liguistic falt that good and bad is condidered in dualism and linguistically perceived as objective form. People start thinking something is absolutly good or bad, and asumes that others think in the same way.
The fact is that everyone has its own reality, nobody percieve the same thing which is in the same universe in the same aspect. There is no universal good or bad, but people are trying to argue with each other about the reality which does not exist. The most argues issue is what is good or bad. That is to say, they are argueing what they like or dislike, and thinks what they like must be liked by everyone in the same universe. If there is anyone who does not like it, this person is wrong. It is stupid and absurd.
