philosophy : IS EMPATHY BEING ERASED FROM HUMANITY? [+] ballot by eccentricities created Sun Sep 12, 04 Empathy is perhaps the most important human emotion. Working closely with your intuition, empathy tells you that something is terribly wrong; that the little girl should not be living in a slum, that the poverty-stricken family of seven won't be able to survive much longer on its meager living circumstances, that the toddler should not be a walking skeleton. However, humanity's growing ego is beginning to stifle empathy's cries for justice. Many people are listening to their brains and paying no attention to their hearts. Most try to squash empathetic feelings in favor of sympathy, which, while pitying, does not get anything done. What do you think? Yes No That's too deep for me!
