Humans are by nature belligerent, hostile and aggressive, antagonist, combative and bellicose too.
The Tulare County, where I live have constant disputes with surrounding counties over federal funds and other silly things. Then, the Central Valley compete with Northern California or Southern California. Then sometimes California thinks is better than Nevada or Arizona or even better than the state of New York, certainly much better than all of the middle states in America.
Americans don't want to know anything about Canadians because they think they are above us, (they are) or the Mexicans, we think they are below us. (they are) We also think that North America is way better than Central America or South America but if we are comparing the American Continent to Europe or Asia, of course, we think we are superior. And if they disagree, we can fight them anytime. We've done it many times, in fact, we're always fighting over there. We're smart, we never fight in our own territory.
Humans, because of their differences have discussions, arguments, disputes, quarrels and all of that. When the situation escalates, they become rebellions, invasions, revolutions, civil wars or world wars. Now, if Martians, in fact, inhabit Mars, I bet we could be smarter than them. And of course, our God would be more powerful and wiser than theirs. That's for sure.
Animals only fight for survival, they eat each other to keep living, scientists call it 'equilibrium'. But we humans, 'the thinking kind' fight over religion, race, property, or political ideology. We claim to have the perfect political system, so, we fight tyrants, dictators, oppressors, communist, despots and all the rest. So we engage in wars against all of them, especially if they have oil.
In any case, all the countries in the world want more land, and most of the time we fight over territories. Silly humans, never happy with what they have. They always want more land even if . . . Oh, wait a minute, the neighbor's at the door, he says my dogs knocked down the fence, the one that separates our properties. He says that I need to build a new one. When I say that he needs to pay for fifty percent of the cost, he says that he only has one dog and I have three. He says that this time I should build it three inches closer to my house because I was robbing him those three inches. When I say that three inches is nothing. He claims his wife says three inches is a big difference.
Before I run out of patience I punched him in the face and slammed the door to end the dispute. But still, unsure about who's right, I asked my wife, "Honey, do you think three inches is a big deal?" And right after I finished the sentence, I notice how stupid my question was.
