My ultimate goal in life is to be a professional human being. It stems from the concept that as we sow, so shall we reap both here and in the hereafter as a continuum ... not as separate entities where one can rationalize any behavior during life for a better afterlife ... not if one claims to have the same soul throughout.

A disparity on how to accomplish life's goals arises between individuals who are personally evolved enough to recognize the existence of self evident truths and inalienable rights versus those who have to be told what to believe. The latter are naive and can be manipulated which accounts for those who can rationalize achieving their goals by any means.

Even some more evolved individuals, via their freedom of choice, will succumb to temptations and become corrupt.

While history teaches us that the naive and corrupt among us prefer means designed for short term gains that are counterproductive to long term viability of the species, history also teaches that those traits even when combined with desperation do not survive long enough in sufficient numbers of people to supplant the dominant human instinct for survival. We maintain adequate checks and balances on technology while addressing the underlying causes for naivety, corruption, and desperation. That way, we don't have to completely eliminate those causes to prevent eradication of our species. If doomsday technology became readily available to everyone, I would be more concerned about general sociopaths than religious fanatics.

I believe your first and final questions have been addressed. Are you a professional human being?
