J I wonder if one can get the full pleasure out of seeing a Nazi punched WITHOUT experiencing empathy.

I mentioned having empathy then and that empathy was rooted in knowing what it is like to be sick. I am not sure empathy requires wanting something for another, wanting them to be well for instance. To some extent, this seems like a difference wrt sympathy where one has a reactive component. To some extent, I may wish to see a nazi punched and still empathize with the experience of being punched. -- Sent from: http://friam.471366.n2.nabble.com/ - .... . -..-. . -. -.. -..-. .. ... -..-. .... . .-. .
