Of course, if you base your opinion on the crap that the music industry shovels out today. Most of what we have now are just sad attemtps to duplicate what we had in the 80's/very early 90's. Linkin' Park? Pffft, how 'bout Pop Will Eat Itself! The 80's were about fun, now we're loaded down with over-dramatic-angsty-teen vagina "rock".

There's a LOT of great stuff out there, you just gotta look for it

This has gotten a little off topic now....Just a smidgen.


the fact is, for what you guys are talking about cant really be argued, music is subjective. Its like arguing the creaminess of peanut butter.

And i remember rreading someone said " You cant get rid of war"

True, part of that reason is because of religion.

Like in the Middle east, they believe that the western civilizations are evil, and if they try to rid the world of it, they will go to heaven.

So i say, one way to make there no more war, would either be one unified religion, because im pretty sure there are hundreds and hundreds of religions. One Unified religion would get the sand out of everyones vaginas.

But the fact isnt trying to get rid of war, its trying to etablish world peace. But it wont ever happen because of religion. IMO anyways.

But if not the religion thing, just make everyone like, or at least tolerate other nations, that way there wouldnt be threast like there are now, no need for weapons and bombs, anything like that. All the countries that pour money into military, and development of larger, stronger weapons, could go into improving society.

Like funding for schools, healthcare, things like that. Build homes for people who need it. Send more money to Ethiopia, actually build working infrastructure in Ethiopia ( and countries in the same predicament as Ethiopia.).

Yeah sorry, I'm woefully skilled at derailing threads

As for the war thing, getting rid of religion would change very little. Everything'll just switch over to possessiveness, especially if natural resources start getting low at any point. You don't need to use God as a reason to clobber someone and steal their land

You're right Tyhpoid, Religion is often the cause of war. Right now Islamic fundamentalists are causing the wars. And Jews too, in the Palestine/Israel bull****.

Also it does come down to race and ethnic backgrounds as well. And even political beliefs. These are other reasons for war, and as long as they exist there will be wars. Which is why I say it's good to have people clearly seperated from each other. When you mix people the outcome is never good.
