Life Today The Real Story; Afterword part 2


Whatever happened to the principal of doing the right thing just for the sake of doing the right thing? What happened to Thomas Jefferson’s idea of America, with the knowledge that anyone who became a member of a society would automatically do the right thing for that society? 

That they would automatically have, receive, or use, common sense? Remember we as a Nation were born around the time of the Enlightenment. 

By the end of the 16th century the west had embarked on a process of technicalization that would ultimately lead to en entirely different kind of society.

 It was a new kind of humanity that ultimately would lead to a change in the western perception of the role and nature of God. 

The achievements of the west changed the course of world history. This in turn opened an already existing gap in the cultures of Islam and the west. 

These still appear difficult if not impossible to close. Until the 18th century Islam had been the dominant world power in Africa, The Middle East, and the Mediterranean. 
 
By the end of the 18th century the west had begun to dominate the world. The very nature of its accomplishments meant that the rest of the world would never catch up "Or so they thought, think, and now hope".

The British had also taken control of India and Europe was colonizing as much of the world as it could. The process of westernization had begun. 

*With it the cult of secularism began that claimed an independence of God. They had the view that consideration of the well being of man kind would take precedence over religious considerations.

 We know what the atmosphere was like when the Constitution was drafted. We know what our founding fathers were intending. 

We know it wasn’t for us to twist bend and rewrite the Constitution but adhere to it in principal to the benefit of society and country.

We must make a concerted Nation wide effort to regain our morality. As a Nation it is an absolute shambles. We are telling people to feel free and tear apart our society if you want it is your right, no way.

It is their right as much as it is the Islamists right, and no one has the right. We are telling our citizens that they have the right to do, say, be, anything they want regardless of what anyone else thinks.

We are telling all the weirdo’s to come out of the proverbial closet. Then they’re forcing us society minded righteous people in.

 We are telling our own people they have the right to do what we are telling the terrorist they do not have the right to do. We have to get on the same page. Someone up there must be capable of thinking things through.

We must ensure the proper functioning of our own society. We have to do this at the same time that we are dealing with the problem of the Islamists. 

We are our most important problem to fix before we march into the future. Primarily because when this war against the Islamist Jihadists is won if we do not get our own act together we will be no better off. 

We would still have a broken system here with the same personal problems at home. I know we are told that the war against the terrorists is the most important event that has ever faced us. I will guarantee you that once again they are wrong. 

The most important battle is cleaning up the collective improprieties right here at home. For without fixing our own enormous problems we will have won nothing but a little time. Let us think first and remember Rome. 

This decadence has to stop. It has been the downfall of every single society in world history that has managed to escape destruction in war.

We know we cannot go on this way. We have all suffered daily as a result of someone’s immorality. These are extremely contentious times.

 This lying and underhandedness is ruining us Politically, Financially, and pervasively in every single aspect of our daily life.

We have hit the point in civilizations and the world’s evolution where man is now in direct control of the survival of man and the planet.

 That is a scary thought we are in serious trouble. Jane Goodal hit it on the head when she said in regards to the gorilla habitats and the planet that we made a terrible mess of things. 

She was right and I just can’t see man doing the right thing though I pray that we do. Man can’t even seem to manage himself. Life Today The Real Story "2005"

There are so many factors here it's hard to explain. The first was with the start of the industrial revolution although I'm sure with an agrarian society we were stuck with the whims of nature. It was hard enough then just to survive and feed ourselves.
I think what we're seeing now is the result of efficiencies and greed. Once it took several dozen men to do a job where now a machine can do the same in a fraction of the time. That makes for wealthy owners and less for the rest of society. I pondered just such a though in college and can not see it getting better.
Another issue is the influx of a mix of cultures. Not that it's a bad thing but in the last twenty years folks from all over the world are landing here in large numbers. We have not had enough time to assimilate them into our systems.
And now starting with Bush you have a party now lead by extremists who would like nothing better than to tear out what little safety nets we have left. When a corporation became a person and money is now considered speech it's a recipe for disaster. And until those who have made it so begin to realize what damage it will do in the long run little will change but get worse.

You know Demeur it reminds me of our fight with the Indians when we took the US, thing is this is a big " enemy" and I do not see this ending in lifetimes.

They are not going to change and they do not want us around. They have hit the point where many of them want only their religion and lifestyle on the planet.
