What is the fundamental flaw in human nature? Pride or greed?


Question


What is the fundamental flaw in human nature? Pride or greed?


Answer


I would say that greed is a greater vice than pride, since pride can be justified. Lets not confuse pride with arrogance. For instance a father can be proud of his son.brbrHowever, I would say the origin point for human discontent is the need to judge, and be judged. This is a double edged sword, since this concept essentially allows society and civilization to function but at the same time, it causes disharmony.
