Post in Lesson 9.4 Just World

Please formulate an answer to the following questions and then respond to the other students who have posted. Also answer any responses to your own posts. 

Questions:
How has "belief in a just world" influenced modern life?  Should we try to counteract these effects or promote them?  How does this fit with "unrealistic optimism" and "self-serving bias"?  If you were in a position to choose whether to promote or do away with these sets of beliefs what would you do and why?
