Surely some few are born with sociopathic tendencies...an innate lack of ability to bond with and care about other people?
I heard one story of a guy who got in a car wreck. Part of the brain got scraped on a jagged bit of the skull, and he lost his ability to care about others. Perhaps some are born this way due to birth defects?
I'm talking about undamaged brains freshly born to physically healthy children.

So if someone gets angry because they were deceived by a lie is a wrong response? What would be a more logical response?
Forgiveness is the proper response.

Nothing can be added or removed from the Bible, so no I doubt they will change.
Is the stoning of gays universally morally right or not?Unlike this point in time, then, was the stoning of gays universally morally right at a point in time in the past?
