Our abusive society
Being having to grow up in an environment where looks, wealth, and reputation matters, we cannot but continuously look for new, innovating ways to fit in. Whether it be saving up to amend one's body, buying new cosmetics, looking for a 2nd job, regardless what it is, we all seem to be caught into it.
Has anyone come across to think that we could possibly be abusing the world? When the world has had enough of us humans destroying and abusing our environment for the better good for US, it would be impossible to tell when they would strike back. And all we've worked for, for all those years, decades, centuries, millenniums, would be wasted. Down the drain. All that work human life has put into to improve the industrialisms, knowledge on the aspect of life, the nuclear experiments, aerospace, politics, education, health, science... (by the time I finish my list, I would've probably grown my one of many strands of grey hair)... would've been flushed down the toilet. Just like that. Without no warning. And surprisingly.. that's not even the bad part.
The worst part is,
despite the gathering all of our power of humanity, putting all our brains together to form the ultimate plan in order to think of ways to 'save the world' like they do in the movies...
there is absolutely, nothing, we could do.
From here on, comes the question of the existence of God.
Now, my intentions aren't to offend anyone, or cause any harm to those who have faith in whatever God they believe in. In fact, it would be most probably safe if I claimed I was a Catholic myself. I respect your religion. As you are proud (or promotional) of yours, I am here to challenge you.
However, in a time like war, poverty, and all the ugly things existing in our world, what did God do to help?
I would like to question to those who are religious. When we see all those photographic evidence of those in need, my fellow Christians are praising God for their gifts, daily food, praising the Lord for how priveledged they are. What did you do to help those children?
Prayers. Literally speaking, from an Atheists' point of view, you.. are talking to yourself in your head.
Have you seen "Jesus Camp"?
I won't hesitate to claim that the woman in that is a hard-core Christian. Ironically, those children look rather possessed. Correct me if I'm wrong. The clips on Youtube of 'Jesus Camp' gives me the tendency to think so. The lady in Jesus Camp claims the Global Warming is just a label us humans gave to what God is bringing into our world.
Yep. She claims all this scientific explanation of what scientists has approached on, is God's work of 'cleansing' us.
There were an insanely large number of people who held on to that 'hope' - God - and yet still had to mourn for their lost loved ones. You can imagine the pain they went through. While we sit on our asses and moan about the new iPhone our parents disagreed to purchase, we're all about designer labels.
I would very much like to further discuss my viewpoints of this aspect of life, however I'm here to bitch and moan about our abusive society.
Carrying on, back to global warming.
We have literally peeled the billions of layers that Earth once had - and we're getting so close to the seed.
Each peel was not yet satisfying for our being; hence the further abuse and to come. I understand that we are trying to obtain more knowledge about this 'world' we are living in, this life we are given. But there is a limit to everything. There is a limit to our environment. We can't possibly be maltreating the world as we do currently and use the excuse "we are trying to build a better environment for our future beings", if we're frankly taking away the life expectancy of this world.
Appreciate your time here and make the fucking most out of it.
Because at the end of the day, whether you like it or not, if you're reading this, you were chosen to live the good life. Appreciate it, and don't take it for granted. You have so many opportunities at the tip of your fingertips right now that are just lingering around for you to notice.
If anything, abuse the opportunity. Crave for more. Don't let it pass by, because in 60 years time, you will look back on it and think to yourself,
'Why was I so foolish back then?'
and then it'll be too late.
