Human Nature will Never Allow Change
“The more things change, the more they remain the same” (Owczarek). Perhaps this is the truest statement ever made. The essence of life is forever changing, but as it changes it somehow goes in an infinite circular motion. Thus, life is forevermore remaining the same. Human nature: the one thing that through thousands of years of new technology, societal trends, political issues, and every other thing that is constantly changing, that could allow our world and human civilization remain the same through the entire history of time.

Throughout time women have fought for their rights, and only recently have become more than property. The gay community is constantly attacked by right wing conservatives. “I just want to be me. People always stare, and attack me verbally. I cannot count how many times I have been told that I am going to burn in Hell. Once a group of guys from my school wrote faggot all over my car.

Africa, through time, as well as currently, is filled with genocide. In Kosovo in 1998 thousands of Kosovar men were killed by Serbs in the name of ethnic cleansing.

The wicked may be as small as drug and alcohol addiction, larger in religious and hate crimes, or as sinister as mass, unjustified rape and murder. Times will continue to change. But, the world in its entirety will never change because of the psychological characteristics, behavioral traits and feelings of human kind. This anomaly is called human
