Humanity, a Fighting Race

Posted on September 20th, 2011 in Literature by Steve McManus

There is something that hangs above this planet, it hangs above each of us, it is the epitome of human existence. It is not the moon, nor the flaming sun keeping this planet alive. It is war.

To say that peace throughout humanity will exist, should only be whispered, it is a distant dream if anything. If you look back through history at our kind, we have conflicted since the very beginning of our dominant race. This is not to say each individual human being is bred to be violent, it is a statement of how our species as a whole is constantly living in unrest. From two men having a scrap on a Friday night to nations declaring war upon other nations, we are a fighting race.
