Human Nature

Submitted by kscire on Tue, 09/16/2008 - 12:49pm.
It all depends on what you mean by human nature.  I don't believe that all of us have "snake brains" which make us more prone to evil than good. If it is truly for the greater good of people and everyone is presented with the facts and the right tools then it is "human nature" to do the right thing. "Because the human brain does not change, technology must" - this statement is completely ridiculous. Sure, maybe you could say the physiology of the brain changes little but it isn't right to equate technology to a compensation tool to deal with our inadequacies as a race.
