I have great idea...and a hypothesis. For this thread, I want everyone to think of the HIGHEST IDEALS that you think exist for persons, particularly human beings. What this will end up being is a list of attributes that would essentially make up the "perfect human being" A human being of which no greater can be conceived. Hehe. Some of these ideals may include:

honesty
altruism
wisdom
etc....


My hypothesis is that after we see much of these lists...we will see an uncanny likeness to MANY people's conception of God. I betcha money. In my mind, our idea of "perfections" with regard to beings is nothing more than a being that, somehow, meets all of our ideals. Now, REMEMBER. Use your imagination. What would your conception of the "perfect human being" be like? What is the completely self-actualized human being like?


Oh, and just for kicks, if you good give some good REASONS for the ideals that you chose, that'd be great!

Ooooh, I can't wait.
