Homo sapiens-the most violent species on earth

Of all the living creatures in the world, man is the most violent species.It is the only species that takes pleasure in killing its own set.And,unlike animals the conduct of violence is not always for survival.Violence is imbibed even in our subtle thoughts.Our society treasures and breeds enmity and revenge.We hate to lose.Winners are always praised:in a small class, in games and in wars.We cherish our differences in name of religion,community,colour, sects and nations.The greatest unanimity is seen during wars.People and nations become one.Never in history were people united even once for peace.We unite only for wars and revolutions.On an average 5 wars are fought every year in the world .This race is bound to finish itself.No other species or natural calamity is needed to stop us.

well said.. i guess this enmity rises through our thoughts...and our will to superimpose our thoughts on somebody else's thoughts. It is great to think great about ourselves ...but it is important to restrict that thought to yourself. asians hate europeans... indians hate their neighbours.. indian south and north have tremendous anger built in themselves ...based on skin color, difficult to understand languages and suppposedly odd diets. Neighboring states fight, villages fight, neighbours fight.
when the enmity finally reaches inside the family, you realise that your brother is your bigger enemy than the neighbouring country. pointless...
what is neccessary to understand is that as long as we live... we will never reach a common conclusion... gotta live with that.
