I believe there is a natural state given to us by our animal instincts/DNA.
Having said that, this natural state can be different between individual people.

You can't generalise about these things at such a granular level.
Eg: put 5 people in a jungle to survive, and one may try to kill the some of the others for his own personal short term benefit.
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.
