basic human nature

Everyone is capable of lying, betrayal, and violence. It does't mean everyone always resorts to it, but everyone is capable of it and I'm am very sure there is no one who hasn't ever gone to it. This is assuming there is no limit on how big the lie or betrayal is, and how bad the violence is; as in it goes from white lie to lying about something like crashing someone's car.  I'm not saying the human race is all horrible and everyone lies, betrays, and commits violent acts. There are people that do all those things a lot, but there are also people that just tell a small lie and the guilt kills them. Betrayal is something that isn't always intentional, or it's just impossible to avoid.
Human nature is to survive in a way that causes your body the least harm. Stress is one of the things that your body wants to avoid, so if you believe that somehow your telling the truth would cause stress, or that betraying or hurting someone will make things easier for you; that makes it human nature to do so.

  1. I agree and disagree with that. You say that everyone is capable, but there are those few human who can't even take to see a fly killed let alone something else. I agree that most people are capable of it and most don't resort to it, but if they don't resort to it couldn't that mean that they are incapable of it because the thought of it makes them upset.
