Sounds like your describing a raging hormonal teenager.
Children - until a certain age - are willful, completely selfish without concern or consciousness of the other.
Is this your view of the non-elect?

I didn’t say “non-elect” or “elect,” I said unregenerate and regenerate, as we are not regenerate until the Holy Spirit quickens us, according to the Father’s good will and purpose before the world began.
Eph 2:2-5 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: (3) Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. (4) But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, (5) Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;)
So to answer your question, is this my view of the unregenerate and the fleshy parts of the regenerate? My answer is: NO! My view is a WHOLE lot worse of humanity.
