Par For The Course


Human beings are amazing creatures. We are one of only two mammals that have sex for pleasure. We have opposable thumbs, we can see colors, and we walk upright. We are also the only creatures on Earth who are controlled by fear of a God we have never seen, the only creatures willing to murder in anger or for pleasure. We are the only creatures who can read, write, and speak coherently. We can paint pieces of art, compose music, and write poetry. We are also the only creatures on Earth who are willing and able to destroy other countries, create diseases, and spread hate. We can love a person, or we can hate them. We can support them, or use them and throw them away. We can laugh and cry. We can be selfish or giving. Why is it we always choose the worst of the two? We are far better at hurting people than we are at loving them. We are far better are bombing a country than making peace. We are far better at torture than healing. We are the only creatures on Earth that possess the knowledge to do great, wonderful things, to help people and to love them. So why do we always hurt them?
