Well, the answer to that question is really simple, Robert - we don't: violence is alien to human nature, we're a herbivorous species with a nervous systems that allows us to reach and hold enlightenment.
What appears to have happened is that another species (one in some respectes more scientifically intelligent, but which do not have the human capacity for enlightenment) has taken control over this planet and tricked the human race into believing violence is part of their nature and that war is some sort of natural phenomenon. War, as has been seen for the last few thousands of years, is in my mind not a natural thing at all - it has consistently been created by minds so incredible evil that they can only be understood as non-human You may try to fit any theories of a shape-shifting reptilians wherever you can into the above. --- In [email protected], "Robert Gimbel" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > --- In [email protected], "authfriend" <jstein@> wrote: > > > > From the Associated Press: > > Marine: Beating of Iraqis Became Routine > > > > July 15,2007 | CAMP PENDLETON, Calif. -- A Marine corporal > testifying > > in a court-martial said Marines in his unit began routinely beating > > Iraqis after officers ordered them to "crank up the violence level." > > > > Cpl.
