BClear 0 #1 July 26, 2008 I recently had a conversation with an individual about global warming. The overall defense was how dare human beings be so arrogant as to think they could affect the entire planet. I think the reason the entire argument has so much effect is the overall jawdrop an ordinary human being would have upon such an answer. Hrm...human beings so weak...we could never alter the entire face of the landmass on the planet or polute the "massive" ocean. Much less *gasp* come up with the invention in the 40's that could annihilate life on the planet for the most part as we know it. And when we all know the sun will eventually expand, I just don't get it. Global warming here and now ok, whatever argue about it, but the rocks going to go and the decision most people make is who cares, I won't have to deal with it. And just to call some popular religions into play, while your sitting around arguing about the economy, I'm sure God will understand saying fuck it I'll sacrifice my childrens childrens childrens childrens etc. because there's "nothing I can do about it now" and "well that's someone elses problem" I'm too stupid/lazy/blind/fat/republican/democrat, to actually address the issue. But jee what's the entire species when it comes to the price of a gallon of gas and a lattee. Don't care what religion your from, the rocks gonna go and we have the knowledge to be aware of it. That makes us responsible. We might not be able to change it, we might not be able to cure it overnight, but we damn sure are responsible for holding our own self pleasures as more important.

vortexring 0 #4 July 26, 2008 !!!! Paragraphs have far more importance. 'for it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "chuck 'im out, the brute!" But it's "saviour of 'is country" when the guns begin to shoot.' Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
