RE: Extreme Altruism and the Psychopathic Brain.
I agree with this
Healthy people balance self-interest with concern for others...
But people tend to lean on the extreme side of things. Maybe it's just the society and culture that really force us in both directions.
It's only at the extremes where life gets interesting. I think it's important to test the envelope, to test the limits of acceptability, especially when you are young. That's the best way to discover what's true and what isn't. Then, when you are older, you can find your comfort zone. For me, any other path is a wasted life.
Just make sure you read the directions first, and contemplate the warnings. Walking life's path with eyes open is always better than with your eyes shut.
