people that "try and make the world a better place" tend to fuck it up a lot, if you havent noticed. organized religion seems to be the root of the majority of problems..along with greed for power

Politicains that cowardly clamour towards the moral high ground instead of facing the problems that plague society, as well as the unequality and violations of human rights against women and children poverty in the world today.

Totally agree. Did you think I was speaking from a relgious POV. Fuck no, you can be insanely positive and have nothing to do with God.

You know, I have a problem with how some people spend time bitching about small things or even big things for that matter, that they don't want to fix themselves but expects others to fix them. People stopped looking at themselves for answers or solutions. Most people seem to look outwardly for the problems in the world or problems in their life.

I also do not like when parents blaming the system for negative things that happen to their children, although I understand some cases truly are the system's fault.

I don't understand why child molesters, who confess their guilt and evidence supporting it, are not sentenced to life or even death. I understand the moral arguement but why should such monsters be treated like humans anyway? What about the victims, whose lives are ruined by these sick people who are not treatable.

if you could justify putting them to death, that would mean awhole lot of other groups of people would come up for consideration of the same thing... personally, i think the death penalty is stupid... and i'll tell you why... more than likely the person you're sentencing to death, doesn't give two shits about his life anyways (if he did, he more than likely wouldn't be in that situation right?) so basicly, you're just giving them an easy way out.. make them rot in prison, that's punishment... anyone that's even spent a couple of nights in jail, could tell you just how bad it would be to know you'll never be free again and you're stuck in this cage for the rest of your life.. that's punishment..

For those of you going on about "You should ask whats right not wrong blah blah- SHUT UP You dont know whats right until you know whats wrong and then you have a shot at knowing whats the rightest path.

So according to this thread so far by my understanding...
Starting with what billionfold thinks, whats wrong with the world is "Earth has a case of the Humans"
Tis true. And besides the common fact that humans are parasitic in nature, if not viral, consuming reasources at an unpresidented rate.

HaHa Not much good publicity for our species these days huh?

And then we gotta go and start dissin on human nature.
Blah blah power, greed, love, envy.. ect..ect... Name your poison.....

But that doesnt mean the best option would be to destroy ourselves.

Yes we are capable of many devestating actions. KEY WORD: CAPABLE


Like look to the media and understand their capabilitys.
Then look to the religous organizations, the family systems, the system of LAW(and punishment), the education systems, systems of nationality and all these differnt systems of bootleg unity.
BOOTLEG UNITY!!!!!
theres so many places to place blame from situation to situation, from victim to victim...
From Capability to capability to capability to capabilty.....

RATIONALLY:
Problems were identified.
Solutions will only be met on a "If it aint broke dont fix it" method

LOGICALLY
I think the problem is not on a basis of freedom or liberty but on the basis of our ability to evolve to new capabilitys... On a larger scale.
Like how a bunch of you get caught up on common everyday events as the problems of the world.
Maby we have to evolve on a common everyday to day basis?

Now im just confused.....
Think you can bring some clarity to the topic?
Good luck.

The only way to fix the problem is to destroy the people. Now since this is unrealistic, the only other option is to convince people not to do the things that make their lives so convenient. Driving fossil fuel using automobiles for instance. Or using airosol(sp) products. People need their material goods. People are addicted to the internet, their cellphones, their TV's, their cars, ect.

So in the long run, we're our worst enemy, as well as our best ally. God gave us a choice, this is what we've chosen.

i'd say your second solution is pretty much unrealistic too.. maybe if people lived 500, 600, 700 years they'd care a little bit more about what they're doing to the planet..... but nope, you're lucky if you live 100, and not too much is really going to change in that ammount of time... atleast that's my guess at why people know the dangers of such things and still use them... because by the time anything happens as a result of our destructive behaviors, they'll be dead...

Almost everything is wrong with our world.
