Are human animals or they
something more?
Human beings should be more than animals, but are they
really? In Republic, by Plato, Antigone, by
Sophocles, The Aeneid of Virgil, by Virgil, and On
Justice Power and Human Nature, by Thucydides, it seems as though human beings
really are nothing more than animals.
Animals are thought of as not caring about anyone but himself or herself. It is
survival of the fittest, if you are not strong enough, someone else will take
your place. Human should be caring for other human beings, if someone is in
trouble, another human should help them. This is not the way it is in these 3
works. Humans don’t care about anyone but themselves, they kill so they can
better themselves, and don’t care what happens. It seems as people are getting
murdered all the time to take power, and the killer, instead of being jailed,
is now the leader.
