I'm not saying these things are good, you know.

Also the Na'vi have warriors, and I'm willing to bet that it's not just because of humans, there's most likely been inter-tribe warfare.

Also, I'm sure there are a few greedy, violent Na'vi, it's just in that society they're the minority and are quickly weeded out, and in our society they're the majority and tend to have representation in the government.

mmm not sure about the greedy violent Na'vi... possibly there is a possibility I've never thought of it... but yes there is some clan warfare as stated in the Activist Survival Guide, but it doesn't happen a lot because of the plentiful nature and food

The only difference I see between humans and Na'vi is the belief system, their minds seem to work in a similar manner(wanting revenge, etc), so I'm sure that they have the ability to be greedy.

they probably have the ability, but they never use it.

Which original script? Project 880 or whatever? If it's that one I don't really see it as credible.

If it's the one that was the final copy then I stand corrected.
