    If humans are inherently evil, why is evil not the dominant force in the world? One would assume that if everyone were indeed evil, greedy, and out for themselves our existence could only be anarchy.

      Who says it is not the dominant force? End stage capitalism is pretty close to anarchy and we will see what happens next.

      After 25 years in healthcare and humanitarian work you get a grim perspective.

        If you were correct society as a whole would already exist as true anarchy, therefore humans are not inherently evil, greedy, or out for themselves. We could not coexist in any meaningful way if that were true.
