ARE HUMAN BEINGS SOCIAL BEINGS?

HUMAN BEINGS ARE SOCIAL BEINGS……
Yes indeed human beings are social beings but only to the extent that they have satisfied their greed and individual egos. In fact one would argue that humans are largely a bunch of species with selfish interests. Sample this: why are guys fighting in the Tana delta? Over what and for who? Why have most modern day families turned largely nuclear as opposed to the earlier extended family ideologies? How many of us trust that our neighbors have our best interest at heart? Or better still, if we had only one woman on earth n the rest of us were men (or vice versa), what would happen? Would we still be positively social to one another? This kind of scenario would indicate exactly how social we are. They say God is love, why? Because human beings posses hate and negative energy, without which no dictionary would have the word love as we would know no other – Why can’t we be like God so that love would be the minimum standard and we would not have any other words to explain different types of love or lack of it? These negative values are always in a state of latency as long as we have adequate resources and enough for our own self convenience and for our immediate family. Did I just say immediate? – Aren’t we just one family? Does God the creator look at humanity as different families? If we went back to the way God intended us to be – Love one another as one family then we would even not crave for heaven for the earth in its present form would become paradise. If there was no hate would we have another word to describe God? May be no. Because we would be like Him and Him like us, as intended from the beginning where He says He indeed made us in His own image. Yes IMAGE. Do we as humanity have image?!!!!! Does this script make sense even to myself?!!
