Every day, wherever we go, whatever we read, and whomever we encounter, it's the same thing. Humankind behaves in certain, specific ways, and we seem to be oblivious to our behavior.
State leaders send their countries to war. Governments, corporation managers, religious leaders, parents . . . just about everyone lies, is corrupt, and/or hurts other people or the environment in some way. People in certain situations are requested to be open and honest, and you'll often hear or read of someone insisting that they were open and honest . . . in a particular case.
People state that we need integrity for this or that. Yet we still have white-collar criminals, murderers, thieves, abusers, and this list can go on forever, to the point where it would become boring to write or to read.
We live in this world, we create and live out more and more of this non-serving behavior every moment, and it is indeed evident in our behavior. But it seems no one asks why we are in this state or how we got here. Are we then not in a state of hurting and abusing ourselves and others and everything else that exists on this planet, and either being oblivious to or in denial about it?
When looking at documentaries or the writings of different religions, or to whoever has a theory on humankind's behavior, you'll notice that these sources rarely take their information to an easy and logically understandable place: making the information easy enough for anyone to see and understand. The numerous theories that exist are all elaborate, all encompassing.
To the average reader, none of it makes any sense. Even to the better-than-average reader, at least some of what these sources proclaim seems illogical. You might be asking yourself why we accept them without any consideration.
