    Signs of the FUCKING times.

    I went to yahoo and saw the news headlines.
    Two headlines caught my attention:

    1. Sunni militants take 100 Shiites hostage
    2. U.S.-China spacecraft debris collide in orbit

    Now guess which one I thought was most important to read.
    Yep, I went straight to the space debris story.

    I guess that's a sign of the times.
    Good luck.

    I feel very sorry for those kids over there, and their families back home, as Americans get more concerned with the latest Desperate Housewives twist then their sacrifice. You can just tell how bad it's getting in the nightly news... stories about Iraq almost seem like sidenotes now.

        Don't beat yourself up about it. At least your conscientious enough to take pause and wanna vent.

        Unfortunately, the "times" are such that the words "militants" and "hostage" are so much more often in the news that we don't really see (much less FEEL) them anymore. We're trained to believe that something like that is ALWAYS happening SOMEWHERE, so the particulars, the body count, the details of needless savagery don't penetrate.

        Resist that.

        Meanwhile, the sky may actually BE falling.

              This is a war that no one believes in, and very few did when it started.

                  Just like stories about the economy seemed like sidenotes during Afghanistan & Iraq.

                        By far, history's saddest lesson is that ANY difference (however arbitrary or superficial) is ENOUGH to make one group of people hate and kill another group.

                        You wonder about Muslims vs. Muslims? That's hardly where the absurdity sits.

                        Somwhere in space, a race of superior aliens are shaking their heads in disbelief thinking:

                        "What's WRONG with them down there? They're all the SAME species..."

                          What if there's a race of superior aliens and they're shaking their heads in disbelief thinking:

                          "What's wrong with them down there? We even color coded all the different people so they could figure out which team they're on really easily ... Team White had it in the begining, but they're not even playing anymore they're just trying to help all the other teams!"
                          .

                            So are you advocating that "team white" revert back to acting really fucking stupid too?

                            What the fuck were you thinking when you wrote that?
                            Good luck.

                              I'm not advocating anything of the sort. I'm just saying wouldn't that be a kicker if it turned out that while Humanity continues to make strides (okay baby steps) towards global unity, that it was entirely against the design of an experiment being played out by a superior race of beings?

                                In all honesty I do not understand what motivates people to draw lines in the sand and kill each other.

                                Whether its:
                                God, Culture, Money.

                                  Even Hitler came in with good intentions.

                                  It's the leaders of men that tend to take over the ignorant and pushing them to kill.
