@mriana
Society is an idea. It doesn’t exist. There is only “us”: people in our midst who influence how we think. In this forum, society is @timb, @citizenschallengev3, @lausten, who reinforce your worldview, your ethics.

You really enjoying pulling thing out of your butt don’t you? Society does exist. I can’t decide if you enjoy making things up or if you live in a totally different world.

It's a concept, so it doesn't exist physically, and the definition changes as we evolve, but concepts exist, as concepts. We can work together to better understand ourselves and we can determine how to change our environment so we are all healthier and happier. Unfortunately, you Sree, and a lot of other people are just taking from what the rest of us have built.

A comment, when directed at Sree, as this one was, is consistently probably a correct, rhetorical question to many of the things he says.
