Even though E.O. Wilson is a liberal, he is a very very good scientist (specializing in studying social animals, i.e. ants and things). His recent book on the subject is very clear about what scientists know about human nature and how it evolved. You are right not to like people very much. You won't think chimps are so cute anymore either after you learn how the hunt, kill and consume monkeys. Man eat man is deep in our genes. For those who don't believe in evolution, you can just refer to the doctrine of original sin, I suppose. It all adds up to pretty much the same thing.
