ANIMA VESTRA Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 If according to the evolutionary theory that a species should adapt to its environment and surroundings over time, how come the human race hasn't evolved past the point of conflict? You would think a race that is fully aware of its consciousness and actions, that we would all cooperate together to overcome all problems within our lifetimes. Why is our design so flawed? 1

Team Cape Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 (edited) people settle, build up their civilization, develop some 'nice stuff'. then that civilization falls in 1 of 2 ways:1st way: people want that 'nice stuff', so they come in and take it forcefully2nd way: people on the inside grow discontent with their cushy lives and revolt, inadvertently destroying their civilization completely then the process repeats thats where the saying 'weak men create hard times, hard times create strong men' comes from Edited December 28, 2016 by Imateamcape 1
Xerifos Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 It is the desire to have/accomplish more than others. Jealousy will rise up when others are better than you, so you'll want to be better again so you'll do what it takes. It's greed, power and money what keeps us going. The more you have of power, greed. The lesser you'll think of others. The lesser you have of money, the greater your desire to get money. tl;dr: we always want more.
The Hero of Time Posted December 28, 2016 Posted December 28, 2016 because we're a fucked up race because its inevitable that there is always a portion of humans that are sick in the head and kill a lot of people, and usually those humans rise to power
