In any case, if man has not become more bloodthirsty as a result - TopicsExpress



          

In any case, if man has not become more bloodthirsty as a result of civilization, he has certainly become bloodthirsty in a nastier, uglier way than before. Before, he used to regard bloodshed as a matter of justice, and he exterminated those who had to be destroyed with a clear conscience. But today, though we regard the spilling of blood as an abomination, we still engage in this abomination, and to a far greater extent than before. - Fyodor Dostoevsky
