I think we are all aggressive in nature, but can be quite the opposite on "occasion"

I think that human nature is the product of the ongoing conflict between behaviours governed by the 'reptilian complex' (ie. basic survival instincts that lead to aggression, dominance, territoriality, and ritual displays) and a collective memory of a the ability to achieve a more 'enlightened' quality of existence.

I think that history has demonstrated that human nature tends toward submitting to the reptilian complex tendencies more often. I prefer to cling to the hope that the tide will turn some day --- it gives me incentive to battle any urges to just give in to the negative qualities and contribute only to the 'dark side'.
