There is a scriptural example of qualified empathy in Christ’s mission statement. When his followers mentioned the people that had been crushed by the tower of Siloam, and those whose blood Herod had used to mix in his wine, Jesus responded with a notable lack of concern. His answer more or less being “if you think such things are happening to those which don’t have it coming to them then your perception, and conceptions, of good and evil are not accurate” and to check their own behaviours to see if they themselves are even worthy of escaping such a fate or worse.

Paul as well describes “terrible times”(2 Tim 3)where many will have devolved to a level of degeneracy which even animals are unable to sink to, and not to have anything to do with such people personally even if one must encounter them on a daily basis. In another verse(1Cor 5 :10) he states that one would have to leave the world entirely to even avoid the moderately immoral people which are only greedy, cheats, or motivated by lust.

I guess the inference is that to have empathy and care for those which suffer for being truly innocent in a guilty world is a sign of love, but even love doesn’t empathize with the vicious(slaves of vice) or evil intentioned people that are merely homo sapiens but not humans. Because it takes a lot more to graduate to human-hood than just liking to say or believe one is a human. Whereas homo sapien-hood is the default animal state we all get born into from the start, due to the unchecked monkey-lust of every one of our ancestors that resulted in our being born in the first place. Being good is not so easy as some like to claim, for “the way is steep and narrow and few are they that find it”

It’s true that “unchecked growth is the motto of the cancer cell”.

And that nature’s program has predation/feeding upon itself as its prime mechanism of survival, which runs on boom and bust cycles. For example, when conditions allow for echinoderm populations to explode everything that feeds on echinoderms is having a pleasant and easy time of living “high on the hog”. But when that overpopulation inevitably leads to collapse(bust) due to resource depletion, plague, environmental/social dysfunction and disorder, etc, that’s when all the beings whose existence depend(ed) on the pleasant and easy times of abundance get to see the real cost/bill of having profited from that oh so very temporary abundance.

Homo sapiens can attempt to structure their societies any which way that suits them based off of the conditions they’re dealing with at the time. But unless they somehow graduate from animal-hood, or at least attempt to transcend being slaves to their instincts, they’re destiny as animals will remain unchanged.

Yet i optimistically happen to see that a percentage of our species choosing not to reproduce(even for selfish reasons) is a good indication that some of us are able to control/deny the impulses of the body as a means of damage control. These things have been observed and studied for some time now, and fall under the categories of ‘Malthusianism’ and ‘social decay’

I’ve definitely noticed a difference in temperament between long haired chihuahuas and their standard breed short-haired counterparts. That difference being the short-haired are a bit more high strung from the centuries of inbreeding (just like Germans have higher blood pressure/hypertension issues).

Maybe the long hair gene mutation came from an infusion of less anxious genetics into the breed, or allowed for some benificial physiological changes to the nervous system. Who knows. But seeing your pic made me wonder if long-haired chihuahuas came from mixing the line with papillons, because they look like mini-papillons

That makes sense, since, as far as i can tell, the U.S. seems to be a modern hybrid of the British empire which spawned it and the German war machine it assimilated into itself about 80 years ago.
