    There are 2 kinds of people: those who were born with empathy and those who learned to mimic it. You live among the descendents of nature’s most extreme survivalists. The transactionalist is simply wired to act in best interest, which sometimes means feigning empathy.

    Religion seems to be an answer for these types of people. It’s an escape from real and true empathy, a justification for acts that otherwise would be unacceptable.
