Why are people the way they are? Do we really deserve the title of 'human' when there's nothing humane about us in any way? Can we really say that people are compassionate, caring creatures when we hurt each other so callously? Can it be that we're not even human anymore? Are we just shells of that former visage we all wear so flagrantly?
Humans are flawed. We lie, we cheat, we steal. We hurt those who we care about, and those who care about us. We do things that ruin the things we love, that break apart our covenants and smash the small partnerships to pieces. We're not 'human' anymore... We're just shells... Shells that house Greed, Gluttony, Pride, Lust, Sloth, Rage, and Envy... We are not humans anymore...
For too long have we lived under the delusion that we are right or just. We were never these things, and we never will be. We can only aspire to be that which we call ourselves, but know we are not when we go to sleep at night. The darkness doesn't lie. It meerly shows what the light is not. Humans are full of darkness... They extinguish the light of humanity and live in the shadows of society.
They wear masks and play parts, a huge drama for no one in particular. The theater is cold and empty, the illusion of an audience called religion has long since abandoned this horrible travesty of a performance. We just have to say goodbye to our delusions, and hallo to the truth...
Or Perhaps Greed, Gluttony, Pride, Sloth, Rage and Envy are nothing more than the very basic building blocks of what we tend to call Human. Can we really call our selves 'Humane' when the base of our very existence is nothing more than everything we see as evil? Do we deserve to exist.
Humans are Hypocrites, Liars, and Cheaters at heart. Self centered, unjustified. That is what creates a true 'Human'
Not all that crap about Honor and dignity. But Lust, Greed, Hypocrisy and to be Self Centered.
No Human deserves the title of 'Human' Not even those we call holy or just.
We are all nothing more than the empty shells of what we want to be. The nightmare that comes with every dream. No, Humans are not Humane. Our very definition of Human and Humane are wrong. We are the worst,dirtiest,and most destructive species in the known Universe.
