Are humans from Earth?

[mahnmut]

I recently commented on a friend's entry showing how people are still willing to torture other people. And I think it'd be good to share it:

This exposes the innate cruelty of humans. Which makes me wonder whether we really originate from this planet as a species. We sit so unnaturally to the whole picture - a stain of disharmony in the whole picture of harmony...

What do you guys think?

Whats so harmonious about life on earth?

It's more like an innate tendency to do as we're told, even if that means hurting others. I can't access that entry but is it about that study where one person was ordered to "electrocute" someone else during a study?

All predatory species have a capacity for cruelty.
