EDIT: You said that feeling empathy and ignoring it makes people evil, but what is that opinion/belief founded on? Why do think it is that that makes a person evil instead of something else? Suppose I think that good and evil is determined by someone's willingness to do what is good for society as a whole and suppose that was killing off the baby boomers because people were held back by caring for them and too many working hands were wasted on them instead of doing something that would benefit society in the long run. Who would you be to say that the way I determined right from wrong was incorrect while the way you did so was?

 Since no religious text I've ever heard of mentions 'the baby boomers' I'm gonna decide that one ^ using my brain. Also I'm gonna use my brain to decide how I feel on the issues that are in the religious texts too.
