the service-to-others people [light spirits] need to be protected/separated from the service-to-self types [dark spirits/sociopaths]. furthermore, the latter group needs to be separated from the great majority of he earth's population of "gray" spirits.

It would be impossible to separate these groups...what makes someone 'bad' or 'good' is extremely complex and often intangible. Furthermore, every 'good' person is capable of selfish acts, and every 'bad' person capable of selfless acts.

^^^"every bad person?" i'm not so sure of that. I think a lot of the so-called "good people" who are capable of bad acts, would have to be the gray spirits, who are "up for grabs" and can go either way.

My point is that who is "bad" and who is "good" would be entirely subjective based on who is judging.

the typical GOPTPer thinks i'm a bad person because i'm not wealthy and upwardly mobile like they are, but i disagree that their opinion about me being bad in their view has any validity whatsoever. I therefore reject the moral equivalency argument.

There is a reason why "utopia" translates into "no-place".

Depends entirely on the method be which it's attempted. Several attempts at it have applied an "the end justifies the means" approach, and atrocities have soon followed.

IMHO the better way is to do it on the installment plan.
