What's Wrong With The World Today?

Postby Gibet » Wed Nov 11, 2009 5:22 am

O.K. I would like to here what you guys think is wrong with the world today. Me, myself, believe that humanity is too danger prone. At any moment Iran,China,Russia, even North Korea, could start a war of disastorous proportions.

... or even the USA!

What's wrong with the world? Humans need things to survive and usually hate all those outside what they consider their tribe, be it a real tribe, community, nation, religion, ethnic group, etc.

Politicians, tax inspectors, cyclists, policemen, Mr. Boggins down the road, the postman's always late, me back's playing up again, too many strikes, kids have no respect for their elders and there's nothing good on telly.

Yours stroppily,
Disgusted of Tunbridge Wells

EDIT: With the exceptions of cyclists, Mr. Boggins, postmen and bad backs, that's probably the more domestic aspect of everything that's wrong in a nutshell. And I think this might be in the wrong forum.

Intolerance of differences. No acceptance of the beauty and bounty of differences. No understanding of the godliness, if you will, in allowing all differences to exist in the same time and space.

Sorry for the repetitiveness of the above statements, but one did not seem to cover it in its entirety. 8)

Capitalism.

/thread
Pro-democracy, pro-NATO, anti-authoritarian. Mostly disinterested in the current political climate. Polarization is the cancer of the body politic.

I know, I mean, look at the way they stomped all over the Hungarians in 1956, the Czechs in 1968 and invaded Afghanistan in 1980. Oh ... wait ... :roll:
