Compassion, Creativity, and Critical Thinking

"In everyday situations, people obey orders because they want to get rewards, because they want to avoid the negative consequences of disobeying, and because they believe an authority is legitimate.
In more extreme situations, people obey even when they are required to violate their own values or commit crimes."

Obedience is instinctive in safe, sincere, and sympathetic arms (rewards). Without this, spirit seeks strength in courage, undermining any ability to reach reason, acceptance, wisdom, and love. Away from these higher realms of thinking there is no creativity or caring behavior, leaving the door open for dangerous and destructive decisions.
