And to the teeth.
We are not raised well. Our vision of "God" is hideous, if there is one at all. Imposed on the human mind is the belief that violence is useful. We are punitive, retaliatory, hurtful.
No one here studies love. Have you ever met someone with a PhD in love?
Humanity's spirit is lost. Grotesque and poorly interpreted religious texts have polluted the minds of humanity thinking heartless retaliations shall set the world right. Vengeance is a rotten practice.
Economics. Complete shit. No man, woman, child has a right to covet the resources set upon this exceptionally beautiful planet for their own personal gain. We were meant to share in the glory of this creation, not pirate it for private gain.
War. Any society that believes some manner of progress can be obtained through acts of violence is insane. Bloodshed in anger is an atrocity beyond comprehension.
Rule through fear, violence, and terror is the worst error ever.
Kindness is the thread that weaves us all together. Witness much of this?
Fear. Ultimate control mechanism. Fear your God.
Why are we so rotten to one another? Competition. A want for superiority. "God" taught us superiority, now its all we seek. Time to listen to the voice of the levelers.
Don't many crave to be heralded as the great thinker of all time? I want to be adored. King of the hill syndrome. The pyramid scheme.
Best baseball player, best basketball player...I thought they were part of a team. Individual achievement or the health of the all?
"Happiness is meaningless unless it is shared." - McCandles
Ultimately and honestly...by choice.
We are not schooled well. Remember that class on controlling one's emotions as to not harm others in high school, grade school, college? *crickets*
Soldiers are heroes, right? Not paid assassins. Praise your flag. Praise your country. Mine is a blight on the landscape of Earth. A terrorist organization hell bent on world domination.
Domination. Hegemony.
We are lost right now. Driven from truth, love, compassion, the things that make life meaningful, or more importantly worth living.
Best fucking question I have ever heard asked on this board or elsewhere. Why? Why answer to cruelty when we know better?
Ego. Destroy the ego of the universe. Selfish. Self absorbed. A need to be right. A want to have one's perceived wants/needs validated.
To be honest though, most are grotesquely stupid and most by no fault of their own. A non-intelligent or mind-controlled population is easier to dominate.
Slave labour. Do my bidding. Best quote I heard recently was an enemy is someone who will not do your bidding. Narcissistic.
What should any one of us hope to become but loved?
Why are we so rotten to one another?
My Goddess is Grace. She's afraid of this place.
Why are we so rotten to one another?
Selfishness vs. Selflessness. I will tell you Gordon Gekko lives in the hearts of men and his voice must be constantly suppressed. Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
Do unto others...says the worshipper of a world drowner. Violence solves nothing.
We all have wants/needs. Its normal to want nice things. Its not normal to gather so many for one's own possession while others thirst for something as simple as potable water.
Share. We share in this world, though we do it extremely poorly.
Why are we so rotten to each other? Makes me weep my friend. Makes me weep.
Evil is an awful thing to put upon anyone. For I say to those who shall listen, make peace with your enemies, give freely to those in need and expect nothing in return. If a man shall ask for the shirt off your back, do not forget to give him you coat as well.
“Civil disobedience becomes a sacred duty when the state
becomes lawless or corrupt.”
“Non-cooperation with evil is as much a duty as cooperation with
good.”
“'Yajña' [sacrifice] means an act directed to the welfare of
others, done without desiring any return for it, whether of a
temporal or spiritual nature. 'Act' here must be taken in its
widest sense, and includes thoughts and word, as well as deed.
'Others' embraces not only humanity, but all life.” - Gandhi
It is never a sacrifice to help someone.
Build community, not adversaries. Heartless punitive measures destroy all love and grace in the world.
One by one we tumble
One by one we fall
If I had a solution, now, honey
I would fix us all
'Cause I believe in a world
Where we all belong
And I'm so tired of seein'
Every good man gone
Love myself, better than you, I know its wrong, So what should I do?
Peace is relative to the all, not the one.
*Fuck. The way to defeat evil is to not do it. Its that fucking simple. We got this.
