The Open Thread posted at the beginning of the month has gotten really, really big, so I've gone ahead and made another one. Post your new discussions here!
This thread is for the discussion of Less Wrong topics that have not appeared in recent posts. If a discussion gets unwieldy, celebrate by turning it into a top-level post.
The lives of most evildoers are of course largely incredibly prosaic, and I find it hard to believe their values in their most prosaic doings are that dissimilar from everyone else around the world doing prosaic things.
I wasn't think of evildoers. I was thinking of people who are just different, and have their own culture, traditions and way of life.
