Who Bewitched Us?

Here's a story line that stirred me into thinking of the evil that the opposite of the story had caused today and am just musing and asking Who Bewitched Us?

The president of the Special Olympics was giving a talk to a large audience. During the question and answer time that followed, someone asked him to describe the best moment for him as president of that year’s Special Olympics. Without any hesitation he told about the 100-meter run. Six developmentally handicapped kids lined up in a stadium filled with 50,000 people. These kids had prepared all year for this event. They wanted to win. Although they could not run well, they would give it their very best effort. The gun went off and all six began to run. At about the 50-meter mark, one of the six runners fell down, face first on the track. The other five runners took a couple more steps and then stopped. They looked back and saw the fallen runner. Then, to the surprise of the crowd, they all went back, helped the fallen runner to his feet, joined hands, and continued the race–all of them crossing the finish line at the same moment. Each one received a gold medal. Our role as members of Jesus’ church is helping those who fall to get back up. The church is not the place for competition; we must serve together in unity. What Jesus wanted most of all for the church was that we would be one (John 17:23).

1 Corinthians 3:5-9 (New Living Translation)
5 Who is Apollos, and who is Paul, that we should be the cause of such quarrels? Why, we’re only servants. Through us God caused you to believe. Each of us did the work the Lord gave us. 6 My job was to plant the seed in your hearts, and Apollos watered it, but it was God, not we, who made it grow. 7 The ones who do the planting or watering aren’t important, but God is important because he is the one who makes the seed grow. 8 The one who plants and the one who waters work as a team with the same purpose. Yet they will be rewarded individually, according to their own hard work. 9 We work together as partners who belong to God. You are God’s field, God’s building–not ours.

Were you a culprit of the manifestations of unhealthy competition?
Students will go as far as hiding relevant study materials from colleagues or refuse to share, others become spies on their own colleagues without pay just to curry up favor from management, and the gossip continues, how about those who spread around rumors just to diss another, the manifestations are definitely viral...

Am just asking what happened to us?

In fact who invented competition and what exactly was the essence?

Does special really mean superior to fellow men?

I think some old mind set need reformation that can only come from finding certain answer to questions
