Inside The Mind Of Thomas Hobbes

Hello, my name is Thomas Hobbes. I believe the world is a cruel and an unfair place, where only the strongest individuals can survive. Humans are selfish, fiendish, and are incapable of truly loving. The only reason why humans function is because they need to fulfill their basic needs. The reasons that governments should be involved in individual's lives are if two feuding parties both desire one item (s). In this case the two parties should let a third party control the item (s) and let the controlling party dispense the item (s) out to the two parties evenly so no riot would occur. Mans basic needs are acquired by stabbing others in the back to further improve their well being.

To support my bleak beliefs, I would like you to watch this video on African war.Savage rebels in Africa pillage villages leaving no person alive because of their selfish and cruel nature. These sad events clearly show why humans are cruel. This ties in to my believes that humans are selfish and cruel with no humanitarian beliefs.


In the United States of America thousands of selfish and greedy people inhabit the land of the free, even rich multimillion and billionaires have been accused of being overly selfish. For example, Bernie Madoff, a successful fund manager, was caught implementing a pyramid scheme. This scheme harmed not only rich investors but thousands of middle class U.S. civilians too. Once again this selfish nature that Bernie Madoff possesses clearly shows how flawed human nature is.

During the great depression the will power and the physical stature of countless individuals were tested. Only the fittest individuals were able to overcome the severe lack of nutrition and proper health care. This unloving world was unable to yield any sort of help to those who perished. Only the fittest individuals will continue to live and breathe on this earth. This ties in to my belief that only the survival of the fittest will triumph.
The world is cruel and unloving and in the game of life every one loses.
