Gulliver told his master about the wars fought for religious reasons. He said that Europeans would fight and kill if there was any difference in opinion. For example, whether flesh is bread or bread is flesh, whether the juice of a particular berry is blood or wine, or whether whistling is a vice or virtue.

They were jealous and would murder each other to get a government post. A prince would invade a country and kill half the population. He would make the rest of them slaves. All this was done in the name of civilization.

When Gulliver's master commented that the Yahoos were abominable  Gulliver said that the English were worse than them. They used their intelligence to magnify and also excuse their vices.

Regarding law and justice he said that the person who was right was always at a disadvantage. The lawyers did not feel comfortable until they argued for the wrong side.
