Pure evil lies in ignorance. I think ignorance is the key to evilness, if one isn't open minded and thinks only for themselves and the ones they love then that is ignorance and that is mainly the reason why there are problems in the world. Take for instance the Iraqi war, I was listening to my math teacher the other day she's like eighty something years old and she prays in the beginning of class. She said, " God bless our country and may our soldiers win and let the evilness that there doing there cease." I mean what makes the U.S any more right than the iraqis? I mean I'm not against our soldiers or anything, I look up to them. But truth of the matter is that the Iraqis are just as right as we are.. Aren't they? Don't they atleast have the right to fight for their lives against us? And it just pissed me off that my math teacher would say that because she tries to be all good and pray to the lord for that, but we shouldn't just pray for OUR COUNTRY, we should pray for EVERY SINGLE BEING ON THIS PLANET. .....................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
If you pray that is. I don't believe any set individual is wrong in the matter of war, unless they are killing for fun. I think every person has the right to atleast defend themselves, first off I just don' think there should be fighting to begin with. I mean no offense but is there any reason for anybody to be dying. I mean yes there is honor to die for your country, but I think it's sad that people our age are dying for this country when there is way more to live for. I would rather them come home and we all have to suffer the consequences together if there were no american soldiers there. Because honestly for those who say "well if we pull out now there going to bomb us", thats selfish. Because I would rather us all die together as a nation, then have innocent twenty year olds dying for us to live. In a way were all guilty then. And war and fighting all stem from ignorance.

Good post Amen.
ReplyDeleteThe only death that is meaningful is natural death. But there are those exceptions...war. We can't face the fact that war is around every corner and Man won't live without. I'm not supporting war in any way, I'm just stating that it will be there for all mankind.
ReplyDeleteI dislike ignorance as well.
