A circumstancial thing. Men are, usually, very highly sexual. So you put them in an extended time with only other men around, and what's gonna happen?
Men are, usually, very highly sexual.
Our politicians’ best interests are served by winning elections, which goal seldom comes close to being in the best interests of the nation.You are wasting your time and mine. If I try to pass the legislation you want, I will lose the next election. If that happens, I do not care if the sun goes nova and destroys the earth in 5-10 years.
I would not call our system evil or neurotic.
There's no evil... there's only ignorance. That's the key for "evil". Ignorance leads to fear, that leads to anger, imcomprehension, evil, neurosis and many other sicknessess of our society. We are not wise... the knowledge we have lacks the most important:
Tell that to the women. In this country women want men to have the same level of sexual feelings as the women.
Women think, men will become rapists, abusers etc by viewing playboy or other visual items. When we have a female president, she may decree that no male shall masturbate using playboy or internet.
Quite decent Nelson, quite decent. Accept the existance of evil and you're on the right track....lose the huge red letters though -bloody annoying.
Yes there are evil, abnormal, & neurotic people and groups in our society. That does not make our overall society evil, abnormal, or neurotic.
Not quite... the percentage seems highter...The majority of our teenagers do not go on killing sprees. The facists are in the minority. Riots and violence in our major cities is done by a small segment of the population.
Palestine, Iraq, India, China... do they have nuclear weapons...?Nuclear weapons have not be used for over 65 years. I guess that at least 10 countries have had them for 20 or more years. This suggests some level of rationality and/or ethics.
BTW: I have never understood the fuss over nuclear weapons. There were more people killed using conventional bombs in WW2 that killed by nuclear weapons. The deliberately created fire storms in a few German cities were particularly gruesome. Some people there died of suffocation due to fire consuming all the oxygen.
If you want to worry about something, look at the way governments have been encroaching on our civil rights for the last 60-70 years. While minorities and women have more civil rights that they had a century ago, all sorts of other civil rights are being slowly eroded.
Worry about the dangers posed by big government and the huge bureaucracies they spawn.
If a few members of society are like that, how does that make the whole society evil?
