Inhuman Behavior of Human Kind

Out of millions of creatures on Earth, humans are considered to be the most intelligent creature who can understand and do the work like no other creature can. But I wonder when humans show an insanely brutal side of themselves and to exemplify this behavior we have lots of incidents in the history as well as in the present whether it be the genocide of Jews or Armenia in the past or the recent riots in North-East Delhi. These recent riots caused the death of 53 people and they were either shot or cut with irregular blows or set on fire just because they belong to a specific religion. People were molested physically, brutally killed that even the corpses were found in sewer drains. And what had the higher authorities done? They were tweeting and asking people to maintain peace as if people especially, the rioters were scrolling through the feeds on social media. Bringing the army to control the situation was refused saying that central forces and policemen were adequate if they were enough to control the situation then how so many people were killed? Some ministers claimed that it was a planned genocide and the situation was criticized internationally to stop the massacre of Muslims in India. But one thing these riots showed is the unethical, insensitive nature of people towards each other and how one or two communities can lose their normal human behavior.

These types of incidents in the society put a question mark over the so-called civilized, ethical people of a nation that how people became so inhuman that they beat the other alive person to death or let them burn to death? Haven’t they feel once what an inhuman act they are doing, hasn’t it crossed their mind even once that the other creature is a human just like them, not a Muslim, Hindu or of any religion. I think No, until or unless they have fear of the same thing happening to them. Isn’t it a shame for a human race where in this world we are taught not to kill animals but we are killing each other? Does it even matter what kind of education these people are having if they cannot figure out what they are doing is right or not? As a human before killing an insect which could harm me I think twice should I or not? But at the same time being a witness of such cruel acts in society makes me think that is this the world we are supposed to live where no human values the life of other living beings? Is this the real world where we want to live in? I guess these questions need to be asked, people need to learn the worth the value of other human beings. If this is what a human being is, then, I think we should stop calling ourselves the most superior creation of nature because we are just creating a world with a lot of uncivilized civil people.
