The subhead says it all. How does this man live with himself and his never-ending cruelty and greed?

Because it's not a man. I have thought about this long and hard Bob. Here's my conclusion., FWIW.

First, we know it's not a man. We know this because its actions are not Iike a man's: thoughtful, courageous, intelligent.

Also, it's not an animal. I could never insult any species by saying it is an animal.

So what is it then? Not a monster. Monsters are hairy, hidden (not in our faces all the time), and spontaneous.

No, I figure it's not a monster. But it lives, breathes and eats, like all other creatures, so that's what I think it is: a Creature. In fact, an Orange Creature. Not a man (and certainly not a woman). It is an Orange Creature.
