Everything has a label. Democrat, Republican, Liberal, Conservative, Capitalism, Socialism, left-wing, right-wing blah blah blah etc. etc.

Why should there have to be sects within a government that divide and put people into groups. Why can't there just be right vs. wrong?

We have all these old styles of government and economics, but do we really even need things like this. Don't they seem kinda fake? They do to me. Why can't we just be what we are without having to fall into some kind of category based on an old system that was designed to culturally identify who we are.

I just see things the way they are, and I see what I am. I'm not a democrat or a republican. I'm a human living on a planet that provides everything I need. Why should I try to look for someone else to provide what I need for me. I don't need government. All I need is free land, and I will survive and thrive.

I concur. Sorry I don't have any more to add.

Because I do not agree with you.
Therefore you are in the wrong and I am the right party.
Is this satisfactory to you?

So because you don't agree with it, then it's wrong? Maybe I was wrong, maybe some people DO need a government to tell them how they should behave. Maybe we don't know right from wrong and we need a "leader".

Despite your willingness to adhere to primitive systems, I like your signature where it says, "I am you and you are me". Someone that realizes this should be ready to be free from control more than anybody i think.

Wait aminute let me ask you something. Is there a constant in human traits and habits do you believe that?? I mean is there a quality that we as humans will always have no matter if you believe inb evolution or ascension.

Absolutely. We were made in God's image, so we are by nature, creative. What we do with our creativity is up to us, but we all have the ability to improve the quality of life around us, and this should be the only law of the world.

Well I don;t know if I agree that we should only have one in law int he world. But since we have agreed upon that we have one thing that is a constant for human being's. What if I said that maybe it is a part of human nature that we group ourselves or categorize oursleves. And it is also in our nature that we have some sort of leader and the degree in which the leader has influence upon you may vary. But this could be apartof human nature to have a leader. This is even expressed biblicaly correct??

If it is the way things are, then it is human nature. But we are still growing and learning, so maybe we'll figure out how to take care of ourselves one day, and human nature will have changed. Really the only constant is change or growth, which is related to creativity.

That's the thing, there are folks who do need guidance or someone to tell them what to do.
Some get lucky and miss out on messing up and others screw up real bad.
This is one reason like the military likes them young, and dumb.
Myself, give me a home in the backwoods and stay away from me and I'd be fine.
But yeah not alll men were created mentally equal.
I do see what you are saying though, and for the most part agree.
I wish it were as simple as painting everything one color.

But what is the one thing that in history even though we have evolved and made technologiccal break throughs and what not through out history I know of one thing that we still continue to do. And that is we as humans still war with one another. But I wonder so might say that this is bad in us and we should evolve from that. But what would a world without war looklike what would it be like. Would that not be scary in itself. I think we have wars because we our individualistic. If we had no more wars would that be a sign of humans losing individuality???
