Yep but I find it difficult to assimilate, I won't just sit and accept it and say Ït "is it all fine".
Imo it is not nature, it is something learned

The media and society tells you not to accept it, but in my opinion Its natural for someone to feel that way and so why not, people have free-willl to do whatever they like (to a certain extent as we're prohibated by the law to do anything illegal.)
People will always be sexist, racist, violent etc because it's in our nature. Nothing can stop it. You can contain but you can't stop it. Racism nowadays is more or less hidden away and yet it still there, regardless about what we do to fight against it. All these things are no disease, we were meant to feel this way.

Do animals give one another equality. They tend look down upon others amongst their own breed or clan, perhaps a superiority complex in the animal kingdom

except animals (from what I know) have no morality or greater intelligence of anything unlike us

But somewhere down the line, lions and humans think alike, it's Fuckin' nature.

'Does an alpha lion see a zebra equal to another lion or does he see himself above them all'

If someone cuts off your arm, you would want revenge since it is only natural to feel that way because it has been implanted into you.

That's why I find it strange to define evil since evil is something that you/or others think/or feel is wrong, but for those who commit wrongdoing, yet see it as good thang, does that make it evil or good? Sure harming someone is bad, but we harm and murder animals for meat so in someway that is evil. However, if someone were to say it's only because 'we eat the meat' than I can say the same about murdering a man and eatting his flesh

So what is evil? The bible, Qu'ran and other scriptures have different opinions about what is good and evil...which is right?

One evening an old Cherokee told his grandson
about a battle that goes on inside people.
He said, "My son, the battle is between
two "wolves" inside us all.
One is Evil.
It is anger, envy, jealousy, sorrow, regret, greed,
arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies,
false pride, superiority, and ego.
The other is Good.
It is joy, peace, love, hope, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith."
The grandson thought about it for a minute
and then asked his grandfather:
"Which wolf wins?"
The old Cherokee simply replied,
"The one you feed."
