From the days of Cain and Abel, the Kouravas and Pandavas, Barbarians and Buddhists, Ruthless  Rulers and the Nomads & destitudes etc, etc,  the nature seems to have failed in providing the basic ingredients to bind the human race together for their harmonious and peaceful coexistence with love and affection. Now it rest with the humans to find ways and means to come out of these dangerous traits.  It was thought that Educational systems and religious moral teaching could make the change needed. Making  human systems bound with moral conducts and social strictures had been effective to some extent, but the even the concept of family which is the backbone of the community structure are changing. We thought that Religions could lead people to believe in the concept of God, and through that to better humanity. But always the fights between religions and in-fights within the religions have become the main reasons for most of the disharmony.  The religious fervor have made people. Schizophrenics. It appears that Atheists have more compassion to fellow humans.

Thanks Mr Paul for having so much faith on Bioscience,as its my passion, subject, god worship etc etc.I live with it and ill die with it only.

Yes I agree that one day will come when bioscience will conquere death also.We can produce genetically engineered human too.But love,affection, behaviour everything depends on our education whether its from our home,school,institutions or other external environment.Please dont forget our past India from where education started and now whole world is based on that.Its to some extent also depend on human behaviour too.Scientific upgraded discoveries has changed our lifestyle fully.We are becoming more dependent rather than independent.It ultimately created a hunger of money within our inner self.We want to be more lazy anyhow.We think that it will upgrade our image in the society, while its totally wrong.There are maximum number of high profile persons who worked hard to become an icon of their society.One have to think in that way too.

You please think in this regard too and give us some way so that people get little bit alert foor hard work.Its not the degree which will help them to reach their goal.They have to be passionate ,determined and devoted to reach their goal.

Satisfaction and achievements can bring more peace and harmony in human being.

Sir with due respect to your thoughts, which are very simple and yet very refreshing, human beings are not only bestowed with intelligence but also with emotions!

BIOS and its application to the Biotechnology and medicine will be of good use provided humans learn to take control of their emotions and also learn that competition at work is never personal but its healthy for the overall growth!

While leading a team of members who are different in view of their approach to.., intelligent quotients..., understanding and grasping of..., I personally believe that unless emotions are not controlled there is no way to stop immoral behavior, murders, acid throwings, acts of terrorism and barbarism and a lot more!! These are effects of strong emotions that control the heart and do not link to the brain!

So a conscious effort in educating masses in the ART OF LIVING would make things a lot easier! Purely my opinion! If it dosnt adhere to anybody's comprehension levels I am sorry, please control your emotions!

Dear friends,

Good to see different view points. 

Somehow I am unable to agree that lack of 'Education' is the only cause of all

the problems we see in the human behavior patterns.

“Education” is a highly subjective term that has vastly different meaning

depending on equally disparate situations and continuously evolving community

and social needs. Can any one say that all those who are indulging in terror and

violence in the name of religion, territorial and regionalist interests,

anti-social activities etc., are illiterates?

True; education helps to mould one’s mindset, outlook and life style. But

here again, it all depend on the essence of education.  Education should cause

‘positive change’ in human being. Then we come to the issue of what is ‘positive

change’. From the viewer’s comments, it is clear that we have different

perceptions of the merits of education. If developing self-centric aggressive

tendencies and making it the social rules and adopting it as the life style is

considered to be the positive benefits of education, why search elsewhere, for

problems?  

I had my education in a missionary run school, where inculcating human values

was an equally important objective as imparting knowledge. For me, it worked in

a 'positive' way in my life and in my outlook towards fellow humans.  

My point of view is that human mind can undergo change by external influences

in various forms. The area that human mind can traverse is infinite. It is

possible that many may go through unusual, bizarre or abnormal or socially

unacceptable thoughts at some time or other in their life which may cross the

boundaries of social stipulations and ethics.  

For some, such thoughts overtake the brain, making them undergo behavioral

change and grow beyond the barriers in an otherwise normal person. Then it is

to  be considered as a disease needing cure as in the case of Schizophrenics.

There are good medicines to restrict Schizophrenia and same way cure can be

tried for many who imbibed negative tendencies by mental submission. I

sincerely hope, Bio-science will be of help. We depend on many preventive

medications right from birth for protection from deadly diseases. 

Having one more to make a healthy mind and stable brain, if can be achieved with

Bio medicine, it shall be welcome. 

Interested members (adult readers only) may please see my posting "Is it

right to legitimize homosexuality ---" in which I tried to explain the bizarre

relation between mind and brain. These are my own personal views and may not

Readers are welcome to take what they like and discard

Best Wishes, Paul

interesting comments . But the idea of conquering death via bio sciences.???????

don't you think we all are dying gradually day by day

so enjoying death rather than defying death is the solution .

AS KABIR SAYS

" SADHO RE YEH MURDO KA GAON

IN SIMPLE ENGLISH

this world is inhabitated by living dead

good bye

It was always fight between saviors and conspirators.

The conspiracy still continues.

In the form to convert people--Either with sword or with Tricks and sometimes even in the name of Peace.

If conspirators can sneak into other religion's worship houses and conspire--then they can use BIO-Science too to fulfill their narrow cause--Because conspirators too have minds--and when other relax--Conspirators r busy with new ideas.

HOPE-You understand what I say clearly?

Man at its original state is at his best. There is no need to tweak it genetically. We should bring change at the level of thinking.

As I said in my earlier post human mind can be abstracted in few dimensions of 1)threshold 2)floor 3)transitivity4)symetry5)equilibrium. The system that depicts this generalisation of mind is the 'free market system'. Like it is said human development till now has been ahieved by enhancing these human charecteristics as they worked with institutions created by governents to do so. Economics depict again not only the study of the science of human well being but also the study of man, which has already been achieved to a larger extent.

Whatever be the change in behavior required I feel man cannot change his core mind which is abstract with few dimensions. Man is a 'utility maximising' agent, where his mind has a 1)a threshold 2)symmetry 3)transitivity meaning prioritising 4) a floor 5)equilibrium.

Based on these abstractions we design each human or increase his potential in a society so that he can be useful for the Economy. So Free Market regulations are created around an Agent who is supposed to be a Utility maximising creature abstractly.

Other change in behavior I feel won't work, because nations got developed based on these abstractions others stagnate. Unless the Politicts is designed to incorporate the above we fail as a Nation till we take the right directions learnign from our failures. If we don't then we had it.

If the nature has made us like that then thats it. The biggest flaw of nature is not that it could not maintain peace..the biggest flaw is that it has given thinking power to human. Result is that human has started finding fault in nature itself.

I believe all the traits which you find in humans are that constitutes the human race or  the combination nature wants in them, as a group of living creatures. As the supreme predator, he himself has 2 bring in thesis and antithesis so that synthesis can happen.

Only when we become more humane we find that these traits are dangerous and then only we can bring in religions & philosophies. Religions?All of them taught goodness atleast relevant 2 the human community existent with them. But followers? Majority is another bunch of living creatures (animals) following the predator traits.

Osho comes 2 my mind. If the society didn't oppress our minds from childhood, may be we should've grown up as humans. As happy as we were, as children. May be a more cool headed society. Thats y some body was doubting, an Atheist is better?

Dear Mr. Paul,

Another thought beyond... But in this I"m not in line with your view, it's not the religions that are fighting between each other. It is the followers we who fight, since we all have a lack of understanding towards the concept of religion. It is we who change our cast ourselves not the nature or the religion.

To change one should look within and to find the answer before they raise to fight.

I Agree with your statement.  Human behavior is the collection of behaviors exhibited by human beings and influenced by culture, attitudes, emotions, values, ethics, authority, rapport, hypnosis, persuasion, coercion and/or genetics. our feeling Literally. We feel them in our bodies as tingles, hot spots and muscular tension. There are cognitive aspects, but the physical sensation is what makes them really different. and cannot be control with Bio science. Maybe a change in chemistry.

Nice thoughts Mr.Paul but i don't think there is a necessary to change the behavior of a person by using bio-science, its like going against the nature, nature has made us this way, people have evloved as the time has gone by, before nobody was like this, so nature will take care as Humans are constantly evolving according to the surrounding environment, so if the environment in which he is living good, then there will be no problems at all, so let nature take its own course....
