Human condition

- The upset (divisive) state of humanity; the competitive, aggressive and selfish behavior of human beings, that is juxtaposed to humanities integrative moral instincts which are to be loving, selfless and cooperative.

In defense of humanities divisive behavior, Jeremy dissects the underlying truths of the human race and our search for understanding, presenting an empathetic and honest look at the human races ‘condition’.
