Human Nature

Roan, I agree with you on your points, as well as Daniella. Yes, we have many laws and people my break the big ones and others break the small ones. On the other hand I don't know a single person who hasn't broken a single rule. To me Hobbs is right that people are bad, whether or not they mean to be, and we can't even follow our own rules. Going back to Roan's and Chase's comments, yes it seems that we revert back to that 'beehive mentality' when some form of disaster occurs and we almost get a reality check saying: we're all in this together. Fortunately, disasters like the one in Haiti don't happen very often. Once they're taken care of we go back to our old ways of separate communities, states, countries, ect. Overall, we go back to our ways of conflict. In history, only when we realize that we're all on this one planet together and we need to help each other to survive is when we get along. It seems to take a reality check for us to get to that 'beehive mentality', but its short-lived before we revert back. Is there some way that we can hold onto that feeling, and actually get along for an extended period of time?
