From The 'Been There Done That' Department
WWI was called "The War To End All Wars". It didn't. What followed was WWII.
Taking another leap back in time to around 1095 there were the so-called "Christian Crusades"(an attempt to reclaim land in the Middle East that had been conquered by Muslims).
For you fans of the Bible, Qur'an and the Torah there was both the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah and the floods surrounding Noah's ark.
Each were attempts to rid the world of evil. Each failed. Why would anyone in their right mind think the outcome would be any different no matter how many people get slaughtered. The real challenge is to come up with a better alternative then the insanity of doing the same thing over and over again only to eventually end up with the same outcome.
There's been a hell of a lot of critics speaking out against this woman's words yet are so blind they cannot see. Religion claims one God or another throughout time attempted to cleanse humankind. We bombed (or are currently bombing) the snot out of Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Yemen and others' How's that working out?
Here's the absurdity of it all. The moment we kill a killer, we become the very same of that which we attempt to eliminate. Face it people tend to develop hard feelings towards those who wish to destroy them. The only real differences between the two is where they happen to live which is being affected. You know what they say, you can kill a person but never an idea. Therefore the answer lies in ideas not bombs.
Unless mankind starts to come up with new ideas instead of blasting one another to kingdom come all this shit will continue for all eternity.
That is if we don't manage to destroy ourselves completely off the face of the planet before then through such utter ignorance.
Blog wars are winnable.
ReplyDeleteWhat the hell are you talking about?
DeleteNothing in this piece is speaking about blogs.
Kind of tough for you to focus isn't it?
