As long as history has been recorded, it features man clubbing fellow man to death... over food, slaves, land...

Humans started by killing those from "the adjacent valley" and that for many centuries and even today, humans are killing "the other"

I'm a bit of a misanthrope but when you've studied history your whole life, you understand that human history IS the history of barbarity and destruction.
