In “Disobedience as a Psychological and Moral Problem” Enrich Fromm suggest that for years people from kings to parents vowed that obedience is a virtue and disobedience is a vice. But by looking at it like this it gives you a better perspective “Human history began with an act of disobedience and it is not unlikely that it will be terminated by an act of obedience”. Without disobedience, the human race could destroy itself within the next five to ten years.
From the beginning of time disobedience was always there such as when Adam and Eve disobey Jesus when told not to eat the forbidden fruit from the tree of good and evil knowledge. Enrich suggest the humans have continued to evolve by acting in acts of disobedience.
