Maurice,

It hurts me to say this, but you are speaking in platitudes. I might have espoused one myself earlier.

Violence is not intrinsic to existence.

I have seen human beings beat the shit out of other human beings for fun! I am talking about adults.

My personal experience is that I have never raised a hand to someone that was not threatening me.

Ideally, all violence would be committed in the name of survival. That is not the case. Humans are just too sick.
Oh well, that is a small portion of the human race and they are naturally selected against. The crazy, violent for fun people will not have children in most cases and this is good of course.

To sum up for myself, I am a humanist. There is nothing more valuable to me than other people, unless they are harmful. Religion is for the birds.

Bob
