That's your animal nature, baby. You wanna be the Alpha male/ female, and to hell with everybody else. It is genetic survival, continuation of the species, all that good stuff.

It's a human trait out of fear of losing what you treasure. Animals are territorial but that is more based on survival.

I think this is an emotion that all of the Earth's animals experience at some point. It is a negative and weak emotion and we all experience it different ways and to different levels.

I have always heard christians say my god is a jealous god.
I think that is kinda stupid but thats a christian thing.Myself, I don't believe in or allow jealousy in my life and I ca't honestly believe that I could be better than my god, so I don't think that our creator has that perticular weekness.

- ja well who knows
-people should realize that being healthy is all higher then everything else
-my opinion to spiritual persons is so, that they are also only people who make mistakes with actions or thought
-in recognizing that we are jealous, we see things about ourselves that make us humans
- feelings are sometimes hard to accept

Unsuccessful one are always jealous of successful ones. It is just natural as they neither possess ability nor desire to do things properly to get success. Incapaciation in one, mental as well as physical leads to jealousness. It can be overcome by acquiring ability and by always praising successful one sportively.

this is arising from selfishness , ego and greed.since these three qualities are in the minds of all persons including those who appear to be spritualistic apparently .

It's probably less common in those who have a non-materialistic worldview, since they don't really want for any material objects.
