Except for the depths of the ocean, mankind has has been everywhere on planet Earth, leaving trash behind to mark the visit, and has viewed the universe back to the begining of its exsistence. Among the natural world of earth and the nearly infinite universe beyond our planet, there is a unique quality that exists in only one place. A thing that exists only on planet Earth in the Milky Way galaxy and nowhere else in the known universe. That unique thing is evil, which only exists within the human race that inhabits the Earth.
Evil is not a universal or planetary characteristic. Evil in all it’s forms; hate, predjiduce, violence and greed is behavior associated with only a single species on a single planet. Planet Earth, human beings in particular, is the only source of evil in the known universe. The only place in the infinite universe you will find evil is in the heart and mind of man. No other living creature on the earth has this trait, only humans.
Humans are dishonest and dangerous. Most of mankind’s great discoveries are the result of violence and genocide. The United States was founded by killing and imprisoned all the people that were already here. Hundreds of years later, America’s proxy state in the Middle East; Israel, is killing thousands of Palestinian women and children in an attempt to wipe out an entire race of people and get the Jews a little more territory they can call “home”. Only human beings kill for sport. Only human beings kill for revenge and money, two things that do not exist in nature, only in the human population. Only humans assign monetary value to inanimate objects and place those values over life itself. Insatiable and uncontrollable greed is the defining trait of the human species on earth.
In order to make themselves feel better about being the most evil force in exsistense, humans invented religion. They associate themselves with an “all knowing, all powerful God”, who they claim the source of all good, of course, this “god” is made in man’s image. The “word of god”, written by medevil human authors trying to make a few sheckels by selling books, is supposedly the foundation of “Christian values”, which are admirable behavior characteristics humans hide behind while they sow a path of death, deciet and destruction. They invented another semi deity called Satan; the devil, the bad angel, the “anti-god”. Humans attribute all the evil deeds committed by themselves to this evil “devil”(“the devil made me do it”). Blaming something or somebody else for your evil deeds is another of the predominant human traits. It’s always somebody or something else’s fault. Commit horrendous crimes, say a few prayers, God forgives you and it’s back to business.
Murder is terrible, but you can’t kill 300 million people and remain profitable. The human race’s most predominant trait, present in every human being alive today, is greed. The infinite human desire to have more material possessions, even if you don’t need them and have to harm or kill other innocent people to get them, is the singular driving force of the human race and human achievment on earth. Mankind has created nothing. Everything needed to build the current civilization on earth was already here, it took humans a few hundred centuries to figure that out. Large groups of human beings known as “nations” or “nations” were formed as a result of warfare and genocide. Human history is a record of violence and warfare and will most likely continue until the human race destroys itself.
Greed is the predominant human behavior pattern, followed closely by dishonesty. Facts are altered for increased profits until the truth is buried by lies. Falsehoods are endlessly repeated until the truth is obliterated and lies become truth. Any unfortunate human beings possessing a shred of decency or honesty are punished and marginalized.
In America, the failing nation I live in, has an economic system known as “capitalism”. Capitalism is where money is valued above all else. Above human life, above the existence of the planet we all live on, above everything. Capitalism is designed to make a very small number of people extremely rich at the expense of everyone else. This small group of people runs the entire country; the government, the economic system, the black market and organized crime that essentially runs everything. Capitalism requires a large workforce of cheap labor. When Americans were allowed to own slaves, capitalism was in it’s prime. Many of America’s richest families can trace their source of wealth to slave labor. After a bloody civil war to end the ability of one human being to own another, along with the “industrial revolution”, America has developed into a nation of indentured servants. No longer slaves, “free” Americans spend the majority of their lives working to make rich people richer. They are paid just enough to pay for food and shelter, but not enough to “get ahead”. Bound by social and economic circumstances that are just as effective as shackles and chains, the average American will spend the majority of his life providing a comfortable existence for somebody else. When his working days are over, no longer of any financial value, he is abandoned to shift for himself until death. Capitalism is designed to make a few people rich with no provision for the success of society overall. When the nation that provides a fortune to a few rich people burns out and fails, the rich move somewhere else.
With no plan for the success of civilization, the homo sapiens branch on the Tree of Life will be a short one, broken and burned at the end. The only self proclaimed “intelligent life” on earth will be the only living species to intentionally engineer their own extinction.
