my guess would be the ego, which always seeks to serve itself?Who gave Satan that power?

well, i guess we all define terms a bit differently ( the real "speaking in tongues," prolly); i would say love of self is essential and often sorely lacking, which maybe leads to selfishness as in self-centered-ness?Gnostic Bishop wrote: ↑Sat May 02, 2020 9:01 am We are indeed selfish, a good trait, right?
That does not mean we follow Satan.

We all automatically love ourselves at birth. That is when our selfish gene takes over and has us do the great good you see us all doing for each other.bbyrd009 wrote: ↑Sun May 31, 2020 1:02 pmwell, i guess we all define terms a bit differently ( the real "speaking in tongues," prolly); i would say love of self is essential and often sorely lacking, which maybe leads to selfishness as in self-centered-ness?Gnostic Bishop wrote: ↑Sat May 02, 2020 9:01 am We are indeed selfish, a good trait, right?

To a point where evolutionists are having a hard time explaining why we are so good to each other.

I found that answer easily enough, but you have shown enough stupidity for me to not bother putting anything in your hands.
ha, superior much?Gnostic Bishop wrote: ↑Tue Dec 07, 2021 11:06 amI found that answer easily enough, but you have shown enough stupidity for me to not bother putting anything in your hands.
Do your own research.
Strange though that you see us going against the natures your prick of a god put in us.
Have you no faith in his ability to produce perfect natures?
Even a rapists nature?
