I have thought about this for quite sometime.
There are many,many people out in the world and who post here on this board who hav some great ideas. However, I fear that in the end, it will all come to naught.
Let me explain. Unless there is some unified movement to construct real change in the world, we will remain on the slippery slope into a very bleak looking future.
There are many humanitarians on this board who, even though I may or may not agree with, I have the utmost respect for. Despite some of my posts on immgration and such, I do care about humanity. However, humanity also includes those in my nation and I don't think that we should set aside our own well-being for the sake of everyone elses. I don't think we have any scacrificial messiahs floating around here.
Anyway, to the point of this thread. Unlesss there is someone who can unify all of us similar minded peopl,I don't think we will ever be able to effect real change. We can sit here and "get the word out" all we want to, unless some "superstar" arises who can unify our ideologies it will be all for naught.
I hate to say it, but I don't think it will ever happen. Why? Too many varied and contradictory beliefs. Hell, I even have some beliefs that contradict other beliefs that I have!! We all do.
What I am essentially saying is that people have too many varying beliefs in the populace to ever be able to unify under one gorup or movement to effect any real change. The sad part of it is, we could do it if it was human nature to put differences aside. Alas, that is generally not the case.

Nothing changes because most people become so fixated on " The Thing" whatever that "thing" is, that they loose sight of the big picture.
That and the fact that all of the disenchanted, disenfranchised people I know dont bother to vote.

I think this is an important point also. There are threads upon threads of 9/11 "facts" that all sound great but contradict to the point of turning people off. It's increasingly hard to find the 'truth'.

The machine keeps rolling, because people are obviously controlled by fear..because if we did step up and Peacefully try to change things they would use the ultimate fear of death in order to scare the masses back into "line".

I guess because every action has an opposite and equal reaction. That is one the curses of the third dimension.
No government can stop the change in the way people think about the world. I do not hate the ones responsible for 9/11.
