Odd Thoughts

Bond · 08-03-2002, 09:19 PM

Sometimes I have very odd thoughts...

Do you ever find it odd as us being humans, one race, enslaving each other in prisons? Controlling eachother? Declaring war on each other? Entertaining eachother? Even like for example wars, it's in a way a war within a war, because humans are fighting eachother, but also nations fighting other nations. Even races fighting other races within nations and being part of the human race. It's very complexed I think. Anyway, anyone else have any thoughts on the subject?

I guess I have thought about like humans fighting humans and races fighting other races... but it stemmed from some other thoughts I had...I don't like the whole dealio... I don't see why so many things have to be settled with violence

I mean I guess all animals are violent... but I dunno it just seems weird cuz like we actually think more and talk and can discuss things and yet still there's so much fighting... and locking other humans up and all...

But yep...

We don't need to hear about thoughts and stuff to make us think you're all those things you mentioned.

I feel so helpless.

Well, animals fight other animals. I guess it is only "human" for us to do the same? I don't know... Violence is cool in movies and stuff, but real life violence is kind of stupid, unless you are trying to teach somebody a point like : Don't invade my country or don't look at me like that.

Haha... Actually, war is stupid, but interesting. I love reading up on WWI and II.

We're a flawed species still. Still evolving. It will be a loooong time before the human species is completely peaceful... if ever. No point to ponder on it if its not going to be fixed anytime soon.

IMO.

That will never happen. Just like there will always be poor people in the world, there will always be that idiot who wants to kill everyone.

Yeah, we arent going to resolve this anytime soon...err ever.

One wonders if animals feel greed, hate, or jealousy. Those are usual reasons we have wars. Animals fight for territories or for mating, etc.

I believe most living thing feels emotions such as greed, hate, and jealousy. It just depends on what level of complexity they feel it on. Lets use this as an example: If an ant gets mad at a group of ants do you think he is going to come busting into their ant hill (whatever the proper name is) and shoot them all to death? Of course not, because the ant is not capable of it. But if the ant was then we would live in a whole different world.

I agree about the complexity part. Most animals aren't as complex as humans. They don't let emotions take over...they do what they do best: live.

While the more complex humans live life, but making more choices based on emotions instead of instinct (like animals). As a result, we get wars and hatred and racism...etc. So, maybe..Evolution is at fault.

Who knows?

In a few years, Jeebus will come back and take all that are one with him.

errrr....
anywho.....
Yeah.

I think that the only time that humans will not be fighting humans is when another planet tries to take over Earth. Then we will all work together to defeat the aliens. Yup...

Doubt that will happen anytimes in the next 100 years, though.
