how does one "define" a creator beyond the understanding of man? religions have been failing to define god for millennia, but still the myth exists.
perhaps you should do something about this total failure in reading comprehension. my very words were "you don't make someone a better person". taking this into account, you would not be "making" someone a better psychopath, you would be trying to give that psychopath the tools to become a better person.

as for what "better" is, that is a valid question. i, along with most reasonable people, would tend to take that in the spirit in which it seems to be presented. more humane, more empathetic, wiser (no, wisdom has nothing to do with academic achievement or the rigors of scientific endeavor), more understanding and less prone to those knee-jerk reactions that we use to promote ourselves at the expense of others. if all of this "subjective" mumbo-jumbo confuses you or makes you uncomfortable, then i would suggest you find a convenient rock to hide beneath. even our most objective observations are shaded by the subjective nature of our perceptions.

If we do not have consensus on definition and rely on what’reasonabe people supposedly think, another subjective phrase, then you can’t have a conversation with anyone but those that you think would agree with you. Your reasonable might not be mine.
I don't need anyone to tell me what better is without establishin a base line to measure from and the variables to measure.
