When it comes to social issues, humanity can be a relative aspect in functionality. Humanity is the underlying cause of simple events within a society. Humanity provides an explanation for why humans do the things they do – because they are human. Humanity is the basis of coexistence; it is the core of society. In relation to humanity, the government is out of line. There is a relationship between humanity and government, however this comes in terms of the different roles they play in the field of society. Humanity is concerned with the choices that humans make and the actions they practice to accompany these choices. In society, government plays the role of determining how society will be administered based on the values ​​of humanity to which the subjects of that society succumb. Society should not be limited to the boundaries of a government, but should also embrace natural human nature. Human nature should act according to a course that is natural and sensible at the same time. By allowing the course of nature to operate freely, humans gain knowledge through trial and error, and an effective, fully functional society is created. A well-functioning government cannot be run without the basis of a natural flow of human nature. An all-powerful government is poisonous to society. For a society to succeed, human nature and government must work hand in hand, making no progress without mutual recognition. For an individual to give up all of their fundamental rights to a common power for the provision of security is not logically intelligent, as every individual has the ability to provide for their own security if they take the time to explore this option. Thomas Hobbes himself states in ... half of the document ... that the natural choices of human beings affect the functionality of that society. Humanity allows humans to advance at a natural pace, decided by society as a whole. Humanity provides the basis for the existence of a society, which in turn progresses towards development leading to the desire for organized government. However, government and humanity should work cohesively for the good of society. Human nature should be able to freely take its course and should not be forced. In doing so, it allows humans to evolve into larger societies through learned customs and values. Works Cited Hobbes, Thomas. Leviathan in the state of nature.
