what i see is countries all over the world, losing touch on the matter of the sanctity of life, which in turn has caused misery and suffering for people all over the globe, on a level unprecented in the last 6000 years of recorded history. . and governments seem to have no problem with that and in fact, encourage it, legislate it, and teach it, indicating (to me, anyway), that they aren't the same species as the rest of usedit on 13-1-2011 by undo because: (no reason given)

Epic post my friend, but it was rather vague, would you be so kind as to re-post it, but this time please include how you "really" feel?
Well done!
The cultural pressure to marry has led to an explosion of matchmaking businesses, and it should come as no surprise that dating-service companies are one of China's growth industries.
For Chinese men who have taken the plunge into a foreign marriage, it seems the verdict is in: Vietnamese women are the best. "Young," "pretty" and "obedient," the Vietnamese woman is a dream wife, causing a marked increase in Chinese singletons traveling to Vietnam in search of the perfect wife.
Testimonies abound that Vietnamese women are traditional, low-maintenance, quietly charming, gentle and loyal. Put all this information together, and the legend of the "perfect Vietnamese bride" has been the hot topic on almost every major Chinese website and online forum.

To me the best thing we can do is to be vigilant and prepared for any rapid mass extinction or extinction level event.
We want to make the world a better place for future generations. As an agricultural company, Monsanto can do this best by providing value through the products and systems we offer to farmers.
With the growth of modern agricultural practices and crops that generate ever-increasing yields, we are helping farmers around the world to create a better future for human beings, the environment, and local economies.
Increased yields are the core of this agenda. As agricultural productivity increases, farmers are able to produce more food, feed, fuel, and fibre on the same amount of land, helping to ensure that agriculture can meet humanity’s needs in the future. Moreover, increased productivity allows farmers to produce more with the same – or fewer – inputs of energy and pesticide. This results in more responsible use of natural resources, better ecosystem health, increased soil fertility, increased farm income, and more sustainable farming communities.
The world currently sends approximately 200 tons of payloads, the equivalent of two 747 freighter flights, into space annually
The permanent elimination of high-level radioactive waste demands a reconceptualization of the problem. We need to look up, not down. Let’s put high-level radioactive waste where it belongs, far out in space where it will not endanger anyone on earth.

A bombs that we drop on cities wiping out trees and bunnies...
The Inquisition, Crusades
WWI WWII
If other animal had the ability to speak English, you would find that some of them are assholes too!
And if they had technology, they would wield it with even more reckless abandon...Also the A-bomb drops in Japan saved more lives than they eliminated. A conventional invasion would have caused far more loss of life.
Religion is a fantasy and a blight on the advancement of our species, I'll give you that one.
But this thread isn't about that... it's about SOLUTIONS so... got any ideas on how to fix thigs?
Do YOU recycle?
So much so that I don't even have trash service! I'm too cheep to pay 55 dollars a month. What I do is I have 3 industrial drums (recycled) for paper/plastic/aluminum, when they are full I take them to the recycling hoppers at the local Kroger's, except the aluminum, that goes to the $crap yard.
