Human Nature

I've been struggling a lot lately with human nature.
Why are we the way we are?
Why are we such selfish, evil beings?

:: I know that the Fall made us this way, but...why do we relish in it? ::

Everything in this world is based off of the market. We sell.
We sell stuff.
We sell our personalities.
We sell ourselves.

Why do we settle for that which is so cheap? And I'm not talking economically here. Why do we place such low worth on the things that should matter most--like our lives? Why does everything have to be marketed?

I have found the irony of ironies: it is sometimes easier to live as a follower of Christ around non-believers.
I would rather be challenged by those who believe differently than I do than be bored in my walk.

Sorry for the lame post.
