Since I don't believe in supernatural entities of any kind, I don't believe in Saviors and "Anti-Saviors." I look for simple, natural explanations for things. The human brain is complex and can act to benefit self and others or act to harm self and others. That is pretty much all you need to explain almost everything having to do with humans and their societies.

Just my opinion, of course. You're welcome to believe whatever you can believe.
