I really wanted to title this "Accelerating the Maturity of Narutobase Members" but it wouldn't catch at many views. Anyways, continue reading..
I'm really happy to see posts questioning human nature, racism, war, religion and what not because its yet another signal that the youth is thinking.
NOW FOR ANYONE WHO TRULY CARES. "Negative" traits like selfishness, rascism, and bigotry are NOT HUMAN NATURE. "Positive" traits like self-confidence, love, sharing, friendless are NOT HUMAN NATURE. Human Nature does not exist. Human Nature is a myth. Selfishness exists today and has existed in HUMANS for thousands of years because RESOURCES (land, food, energy, knowledge) are scarce.
Here is an example, IF you have a waterfall near your village, people won't get up in the middle of the night and steal water, ITS ABUNDANT. Selfishness is a result of SCARCITY. In other words, if there is not enough to go around, people need to be selfish to survive and a control group evolves from a scarce environment. You cannot consider the human without considering the environment they come from. So in other words, human nature literally depends on what nature is offering at that point in time. GET IT? I hope so.
NOW TO END IT ALL: one man has been studying these quesitons his entire life and he is now 96 years old. HIS NAME IS Jacque Fresco. Watch a video or two about him on youtube and you will amplify your knowledge.
