Ed in Houston Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 The Politics of Human Nature: Thomas Hobbes English political philosopher Thomas Hobbes (1588 – 1679) is the father of political science. Hobbes commented on the nature of mankind. "Let us return again to the state of nature, and consider men as if but even now sprung out of the earth, and suddenly, like mushrooms, come to full maturity without all kind of engagement to each other . . . Whatsoever therefore is consequent to a time of Warre, where every man is Enemy to every man; the same is consequent to the time, wherein men live without other security, than what their own strength, and their own invention shall furnish them withall. In such condition, there is no place for Industry; because the fruit thereof is uncertain; and consequently no Culture of the Earth; no Navigation, nor use of the commodities that may be imported by Sea; no commodious Building; no Instruments of moving, and removing such things as require much force; no Knowledge of the face of the Earth; no account of Time; no Arts; no Letters; no Society; and which is worst of all, continuall feare, and danger of violent death; And the life of man, solitary, poore, nasty, brutish, and short". So now that humans have had a few hundred years to reflect upon the wisdom of Hobbes, what has mankind learned? "I love the smell of napalm in the morning".
