Being Human
Being Human
Suddenly this tag is catching my attention and as days of my life pass, it is becoming more meaningful and relevant. I have walked much, seen a lot, been on an airy-fairy, grounded many a times, trampled, crushed, raised, convalesced, used, misused and disused. After all of the melodrama, I have realized, may be late, that this is the ultimate token of acceptability. the so called bad boy who brought it to my notice could be much more wiser than many a saints, what he has believed, he would never have to part with, not the least like mine, which has been ramshackled, shaken and trodden and I don’t know how many times.
Is there a difference between being good and being human? Actually, there is a world of it. The difference lies in its Objectivity. Being good is deliberate, though most wouldn’t accept it, the so called ‘rationals’. Being human is more general, away from the judgmental prerogative, rather it keeps itself spared from those garlands…escapism may be, but I stand for it, why do we always have to be good, if we are good at times, what about the rest, we are invariably bad, could we not let go this chutzpas and be more simple, be the way we should be, without much laurels and unoscillating.

Yet another Day
One more of the unusually usual day has gone. I looked forward to some humanity from some unusually irrational people as usual, and as usual those unusual materialistic jerks chose to adhere to their hypocrisy. I like to long, as it gives a sight, and dread to be blinded if I lose that. That keeps me going and probably is also the main connect with the Supreme. Tell me, if one loses the sight, what would one pray for, who doesn’t have any wishes, I am sure God also wishes, wishes to see us follow his path, not to astray, be kind and carry the light in our hearts that He had kindled.

When I had nothing, I had nothing to lose. As I have everything, everybody is there to rob me!
Amazing isn’t it. Today I don’t trust anyone, I see a

    There is a subliminal tone throughout the chapter that humankind really can be what the title implies: kind. The content consistently punches on the habitual lives we live as being purely serving self-interest. However I perceive that this is antagonistically challenged by what I assume the central theme of this literature will be: we have something more to us than just serving our seemingly genetic propensity of self-interest. This something may perhaps befuddle the…

    For years there has been a debate on whether human beings are good or bad, there is no right or wrong answer to this. We have learned these two meanings through different reinforcements taught to us by our peers around us. People of different places and eras have conducted experiments and surveys trying to prove both sides. Some experiments have made the news and showed us just how mad people can become, others are now used to tap into our minds and get our attention. The way we as living individuals interact with one another raises these wonders of the question are humans good or bad. Human’s are neither of these two traits, we are people who learn these characteristics in different ways throughout our lifetime.…

    Have you ever wondered why your parents teach you manners? Or why they punish your for hitting your sister or biting your brother? Humans must be taught to be good because we are born inherently evil. The definition of evil is being somewhat wicked and immoral. The definition of good is being morally right and having integrity. Now, some people may say that this is a horrible thing to say, but if you think about it, how do all these bad things happen if people aren’t truly bad? Why do we have crime, rape, domestic violence, war, and murder? Not all people do these things and most people believe these are wrong, but there are people who still do it anyway. Humans can be good, if they try; however, humans are born inherently evil.…

    Are Humans Good or Evil

    People tend to help each other out even when a person doesn’t request for one. When we were young, most of us wanted to become doctors, policemen, and firefighters, and the reason for this is because we wanted to help others, this shows that we were born pure and good by nature. A diverse group of researchers from Harvard and Yale University conducted a new set of studies that gave out evidence whether humans are good or evil by nature. Their study was focused on our first instincts, to either act selfishly or cooperatively, which was also based on intuition and reflection. Throughout the study, whether it was intuition or reflection, both studies resulted in humans cooperating with each other, which show that it is our nature to aid each other in any type of situation. Even when were young, our first initial thought about others was to help them, as we grow older, it may change a little, but our actions stills show that we like to help each other out, therefore I believe that we are good by nature…

    What is good? Do we always do good? Why or why not? As human beings we are supposed to be able to tell right from wrong and good from bad but does that mean we always do what’s right or what’s good? In the Stanford prison experiment it shows us that good people can act differently under certain situations. Even though we intend to do good there are certain things that can twist our arm into doing acts or saying things we would normally never say or commit.…

    We as humans are social animals. We socialize everyday of our lives. Without the drama and the social activities we have our lives would be boring and bland. But in some social activities that we are being accused or all the attention is brought to us we will turn into animals and will do anything to get the attention off of us. First I would like to clarify what the definition of human nature is, the general psychological characteristics, feelings, and behavioral traits of human kind, regarded as shared by all humans.…

    A question I have always wondered is what if babies could talk. It wouldn’t it be nice if we could know what they were screaming about? No, if we could hear the words they were thinking mankind would die off. The seven deadliest sins are wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, envy and gluttony. Why are these seven the most deadliest sins? Is it the fact that they are the easiest to while causing the most damage? Everything is good in moderation, as a human race we forget what moderation is.…

    In society humans use stratification to organize groups of people. In doing so they are creating what is known as a social hierarchy. Social hierarchies show one of the ways humans achieve asserting dominance over others. Wanting to assert dominance over others and be “above them” is human nature, whether it is asserting dominance over the opposite sex or one society over another.…

    Recognizing Humanity

    The capability for dehumanization is within all of us. This statement echoes through history up to the present time as true. Everyday humanity hears of incidents where the compassion and respect for human life is disregarded and demeaned. Everyday somewhere in the world someone is found wielding a gun or strapped with an explosive vest ready and willing to destroy innocent lives whose only crime was being at the right place at the wrong time. When sociologists try to understand why humanity's value for life is unchanging despite the milestones made as a species, the one answer that comes to mind is that people have the innate tendency to become inhuman. History has taught humanity very little about tolerance and people continue to make the same mistakes. However, humanity can be very accommodating, loving, and caring and this has been seen in people who have dedicated their whole lives to preach peace and further the teachings of kindness and compassion. In as much as we have the capability to love and care, we still revert to negative tendencies and this contributes to the social evils inherent in our everyday lives. This tendencies, however small, makes all the difference about what kind of people we can be.…

In William Golding’s novel, Lord of the Flies, he writes of a group of boys that get stranded on an island without any adult. In three documents using knowledge from religion psychology and actions from people we can see that the true nature of a human being is good.…

    The technology of humans will continue to be more advanced and used frequently. After every new invention, the next best thing will be coming after that.
