Are human beings naturally selfish?
ANSWERHuman beings are naturally animals, selfish is a human concept, The technical answer to your question is yes we are naturally selfish but, it's really about the survival instinct, all animals are selfish when it comes to survival, procreation and defense of life.ANSWER:As all beings are selfish, why is has the word become such a pejorative? Why should we overcome selfishness? Selfishness is to have a chief concern for ones own interest. Any other addendum towards defining selfishness is just hyperbole, matters of opinion. To say we have a chief concern for ones own interest especially with disregard to others it to contradict the meaning. Our dependency on others is self evident and to show disregard for others is not in ones best interest. Selfishness is a virtue and not a sin, it is the very point in having a point of view. If you don't look out for your own interests then who will? Why should somebody else be a better judge of what's in your best interest, and how can we be sure his judgment of your selfish behavior isn't motivated by his own selfish nature? Be selfish, I say! Be who you are, look after yourself and always be your self.ANSWERNo! Of course not. If all human beings were naturally selfish, then where would we be? Of course, there are a lot of people who would say that we were selfish, and I understand that, but no. If you were to be selfish, nobody would hate you for being so, because it is accepted; everybody is selfish, to some degree, whether they know it or not. It's what makes us human.
