Ya, that scene was a prime example of the destructive nature of humans. But the there is of course the question: are humans violent by nature?? Can we really help creating weapons? Do the designers just want to benefit from a conflict between humans. I could go on and on about this, but basically, it all depends on our nature, our human nature. Are we born with instincts that cause us to become violent, and therefore necessitate weapons to give us the advantage over our enemies? I believe that we are natually agressive to some degree. We all think aggressively towards others constantly, and that also, there are weapons far worse than those that can be seen or touched.
