But I personally believe that there is something (yes I have a very spiritual, but not religious side) that is inherently good in this universe that I can tap into that relieves me of my selfishness - self contentedness. I think fulfilled people, however they get there, are those who abide more with the inherently good than the inherently bad. Love is boundless as long as we don't bind it.
Republicans do believe they are good, but they have a narrower view of those who deserve help (mostly just people like them - their families and their "tribe"
and don't seem to believe greed, or placing self interests first is evil. Some of them are capable of altruistic acts, but on a smaller scale and in a more tribalistic way. I think they also have a more dogmatic approach to what is good, depending not so much on their their own altruistic instincts, but on what they read or are told even if it doesn't feel right to a well heeled conscience.
But these are matters way beyond the reach of my simple philosophy..
