Hello,
My name is Thomas Hobbes (RJ Mathieu). I was born on April 5, 1588. I lived most of my life in Europe, mostly around Paris. I had two brothers. I grew up around Westport, and went to school at their church. I am here to tell you that we would all be dead without laws. What is to stop me from going up to you, any day of any week and killing you? Nothing. That is why laws were inlaced among communities. Humans are evil. We care about nothing but ourselves. Everything we do is a well thought out plan on how to better our own lives. If you believe that you help others out of the kindness of your heart, then you are either uneducated, or so intelligent that you have managed to fool yourself. If you read my book, it will explain to you the true nature of humanity in greater detail. In short, humans are demons. Demons that have been tamed by the lash of law. The fear of consequence and self being is the sole factor protecting use from each other. The world must be put under absolute monarchy. This is the only way in which we can assure ourselves that our own true feelings about each other will not overcome our fear of consequence. Only then can we live soundly.
