    You are confusing what it means to be human. Our ability to think critically, and resist primal urges through our ability to learn, abstract, and sympathize. This is HUMAN nature. If you want to be with the animals, fine, but that is not natural, it is copping out.

  • @Cocteau120

    He didn't say it was natural.

  • Republican what a load of shite!

  • @sledhead69

    That's a cultural construct. Nature is predatory and prone to endemic warfare. One species ruthlessly assaults another for its own mercenary survival. Man's exploitation of nature is as natural as morning foam on the sea. It's a part of our evolution. If you want to believe in this religion of environmentalism, that's fine. But don't pretend there's anything natural about it. It's decidedly unnatural.

  • @NancanUno Well said, could not agree more. Cheers.

  • why does this guy pronounce his name different than it's spelled?

  • @upLIF need songs for that look up serj tankian and system of a down great political groups taht are strong against new world order

  • I still am yet to see another guitar player use the wammy-bar like that while singing. And the way he puntuates it with those amazing little rythmic "chops". That would be enough for me, but the words stab right at the political heart of it all. Intelligence and virtuosity, solid Cockburn!

  • please look out for our life everyone ..best song ever
