Here is the insight from the Dalai Lama for 10-2-07.
"The laws of nature dictate that bees, for instance, work together in order to survive. As a result, they possess an instinctive sense of social responsibility. They have no constitution, laws, police, religion, or moral training, but because of their nature, they labor faithfully together on a basis of mutual cooperation. Human beings, on the other hand, have constitutions, vast legal systems, and police forces; we also have religion, remarkable intelligence, and a heart with a great capacity to love. But despite our many extraordinary qualities, in practice we lack a sense of responsibility toward our fellow humans. In some ways I feel we are poorer than the bees."
