surely the minds of the many can outweight the mind of the one, but we don't see that happening, instead we see the stupid masses jumping through hoops at the behest of the dictator, while he goes about starting wars and initiating violence against the innocent. It boggles the mind how many dim-witted people are willing to blow themselves up for some such dictator, in my opinion such people are second rate and inferior specimens of humanity, and if we can only seperate out this scum, we'd stand a better chance to have a lasting peace.
I've been gone for a while, and I know this qoute kinda strayed from topic a little, but I gotta say, we need to wake up. Replace "dictator" with "president" and replace "blow themselves up" with "blow others up". Sorry, but even in America we are fed idealogy. For example, listen to Fox News or nearly any other news channel, even your president or government officials and you're finding out what country we should bomb next because that country believes this or that. Then, we go jump in the bombers and grab the guns and go kill, believing we are preventing ourselves from getting attacked in the future, or that it's the "patriotic" thing to do, or that the enemy is EVIL. Even the idea that the "enemy" is an enemy could be force fed to a country and it will be believed eventually.
I understand that getting rid of those who seem to be wrong in our eyes seems good to us, but things look different from other perspectives and upbringings. Just because we dont behead people in public like some third world countries still do, it doesn't change the fact that we did it in the past too. That doesnt make it right, but some things take time for changes to occur I guess.
Hehe..anyways..thats my opinion at this moment in life.
Thank you all for adding your opinions!! Feel free to keep adding to this.
Thank you for your view point on this. I somewhat agree and disagree with you, but this is exactly the kind of response I wanted to get from my statement. If anyone else wants to share their view points, please do.
When I read about the plans for the future colonization of Mars by humans, I was really interested/excited. Now, after some thinking about Earth and how careless and ignorant humans can be, I'm really unsure if humans are ready to make the jump.
In my opinion, we humans haven't shown ourselves to be the most responsible beings in taking care of the planet we live on NOW, how can we expect that to magically change on Mars. Couple that with war, hatred between nations, greed, and other negatives seen in everyday life on Earth and you have Earth problems on Mars. There is absolutely no getting around that in my opinion.
Oh and by the way, why has the idea of stretching out to Mars became an issue? Foreseen Earth destruction helped along by humans?? If so why are we planning on moving to Mars? To further planetary destruction?...We might want to learn to take care of the planet we live on now, along with learning to live along side our fellow man peacefully before "abandoning ship" so to speak.
But in the end there is good and bad in all things. Lets hope that if there is a Mars jump, we humans will do things right this time around.
