Thread: List everything that is wrong with the world.

1 - The world exists in a hostile universe
2 - Earth's natural environment is unforgiving, harsh and constantly changing
3 - Humans are mostly gullible lemming-like idiots

-Duality
-Ignorance
-Intolerance
-Ego
-Knowledge
-Non-duality

The basics have been covered, so I'll just add:

Brittany Spears, et al.
American Idol
Bullies
Dick Cheney
Clear Channel

How do you define wrong?

You know exactly how it is meant.

Anyway; It's all in your opinion wrong. You could say "Freedom" if you thought so.

Without arrogance and egoism, Denmark wouldn't be what it is today, one of the richest countries in the world, with one of the highest living standards.

Anyway, what do I think is wrong? Here goes;

1) Religion.
2) Death. People should die, but instead we should be much fewer in the world, but live much longer.

- Animal rights activists
- Conservatism
- Dogmatism
- Esoterics
- Governments
- Marriage
- Intolerance
- Monogamy as social standard
- The fact that in a thread about what is wrong with the world people name things that I consider good and vice versa.

Hmm. I like this paradoxical fascist/romantic thing.

I'm a hopeless romantic but also a vile hater.
I love 'love" but I'm also all for brutality.

Anyway, I belive that what's wrong with the world is human beings.
There shouldn't be 6 billion of us acting like "humans"
Just a handful of us acting like gods.

After the black death Europe entered a period of unprescedented prosperity.
Bring back the plague!!!

The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
Let's not forget us lowly peons, though.

Most humans inability to be wrong. I believe it is the source of almost all of Earth's troubles. Most people are so afraid to admit that their world is not as nearly as concrete and straightforward as they would like to believe that they are willing to do just about anything to remain comfortable in their own illusions of rightness. Wars, atrocities, rudeness; all these stem from this problem. If every human being could realize that almost everything they believe is actually false, this world would be a much better place.
