Greed is a very childish state. The thoughts and actions of "give me" and "mine not yours" are all things we have to drill out of the heads of our children. We preach sharing and equallity. Everyone is created equal (atleast thats what we say). So when you see that mid 40s rich son of a bitch, buying his third SUV, it kinda makes you think. Where did these people go wrong? How much wealth do you really need. Have they not learned the basic principles that they were suppose to when they were a mere child? However, in defense of that rich son of a bitch- Being a biologist i understand the fundamental desires of all living things. One being- take all you can get, then take more. But perhaps we as humans are so successfull because we have been able to overcome these primatives urges. We use our brains instead, and learn. Compassion was allowed to evolve and hence sharing followed. Are we really progressing as a society? Or are these primative, selfish urges still ruling our lives? The world is run by money, which is the fuel for the fire of greed. No matter how much we deny it, our society is no more complex than that clan of gorrillas competes to see who has the biggest dick (there is no such clan, but you get the point).
Im been thinking about starting my own website/ blog. Just to write things relevant to biology/ supernatural/ environment/ human nature.
