Sex and Violence

Why? Why so much? It’s everywhere. Why? Our literature. Our movies. Our music. Our art. Everything. Human civilization, tightly woven with sex and violence. Wars are fought, careers destroyed, because of sex and violence. Instincts run deep. Humanity held ransom by sex and violence. Common senses logic cannot withstand! Human passions heated crush logic destroy thoughtfulness. Why? Animals. We are animals. We have instincts, like all the rest, genetically programmed. Procreation! Self preservation! Etched into our very being. Cannot ignore. Impossible to Ignore. The strongest in all animals. Humans, no different. How will it change when the machines arrive? What would machine civilization look like when instincts are no more? Time will tell! They are coming.
