Im reading about the crustaceous period.
It seems us Human Beings are the tail end of an evolutionary arms race. Before the crustaceous period everything was soft non-vertebrate animals that need no protection from each other. Enter the crustaceous period and the evolutionary pattern of destruction begins. Pinchers, stingers, huge teeth, and now nucleur missiles. Evolutionary Arms Race.
I find this interesting because we are in the midst of a very technological and dangerous arms race and it seems that it holds more importance to us as human beings than any other aspect of our lives. On every scale in society I find this is true. We are doomed naturaly, isn't it neat?
Killing and destroying is as natural as a bowel movement, so I guess we should embrace it...
Peace is as unnatural as being 'gay'
These are my observations [X(]

I agree that violence is a unfortunate trait of mankind, always has been, we are no more violent today, than we were during the Roman Empire.
I dont agree that we should embrace violence, and neglect working towards peace just because it has always been a part of mankind.
I actually think for most individual people it is more natural to be peaceful towards one another, than violent.
