Why is the guilt necessary?

The guilt is a reminder of the cognitive debt.

  • I wouldn't feel guilty about acing a multiple choice test.

    I don't feel guilty about being born in a prosperous country. I don't feel guilty about being born a human, nor of being born in a time of relative peace.

    I feel grateful for these things, but no - I don't feel guilt, and I don't think I "should".
