Why Do People Do Bad Things To One Another

The "Garden Of Eden," portrait by Peter Wenzell.

As individual human beings, we all share certain things in common. We are all: imperfect, too quick at forming our own opinions or judgments, naturally quite selfish-natured, and prone to making serious errors in judgment. These are all, "Part and parcel," to being inherently human. But, do these Natural Human Traits explain all there is - when it comes to all of the ongoing wickedness around us? Or, could there be even more to this Time Honored Question, than we may subjectively observe? And from [precisely] where does it inevitably spring?

After all, despite our human imperfection, most people generally believe that there are strict Moral and Ethical Boundaries which should never be crossed. Even as we are equally aware, that functional human beings are capable of controlling their own Individual Free Will - under normally occurring conditions and circumstances. Moreover, the fact that most of us can do so under the possibility of Life and/or Death Circumstances - such as: emergencies, disasters, and wars - certainly bolsters this commonly shared and un-shake-able belief. And yet, seeming functional and completely ordinary people are continually being caught up in amazingly complicated and morally compromised positions. What's [honestly] up with that?

Yahweh [The Father] Cannot Change

Neither: Yahweh, nor His Moral  Law can change!

Everyone and everything in the universe changes: daily, hourly, and minutely! As all of our physical creation, hurdles through the corridors of space and time, nothing that exists is left completely intact and unchanged.... While the rocks break apart, the space traveling bodies collide, and the energy at the heart of our sun is steadily depleted and/or consumed: the living organisms on our planet go about enjoying their daily lives - blissfully unaware of such highly relevant matters.

Meanwhile, our curiosity - toward all of the substance surrounding us - compels us to seek out ever greater: knowledge, application, and understanding! Consequently, we acquire an ever greater comprehension of everything - over time... and we are constantly revising our: understandings, ideas, beliefs, and opinions - in regard to everything our senses can [honestly] detect. Thus, we are: molded, shaped, and/or adapted to our own physical environment - even as we attempt to: mold, shape, and adapt our world to more properly suit our own needs!
