Then lets do something to change it for the better. Join the Chico Mendez organization. Or check out the Gandhi Institute For Nonviolence Web site. Clever idea a "blank" posting however, got a chuckle out of it MM

So true,
thank you for your encouraging words there, MM.
If sometimes the world seems a bit boring [and even predictable] it is probably because we are not really able to understand it - or, as you said, love it enough.

Namaste,
PE

i say we destroy it!

What? Destroy my world? Never. What sort of evil mind do you have? Well, it doesn't matter, because in my book, evil is evil. You just went on my list, Master of Chaos.

Namaste PE! Very good! Few outside of India know how to use that greating. I would love to attend an ashram sometime to learn more. Unfortunatly, while there is a Buddhist temple where I live, there are no ashrams. There is one Mosque, and I have many Islamic friends, but I don't wish to convert to Islam. I wish there was a Taoist priest here also. As for destroying the earth, don't have any false hopes "frog", it appears we are already doing it. Just at a much slower rate than one big "bang". I am forever the optimist but I fear for the enviroment. If armageddon ever comes I bet it will be by an act of nature rather than an act of man. Mother Earth will finally say: I've had enough of the human viruses. Then she will choke-off our air supply or throw an astroid at us. I want to be around if armageddon ever comes, after all, its only gonna happen once! MM

I agree - we sometimes do behave as a sort of virus. Mother Earth - Gaia, a long-suffering planet -- is still being kind to us - but we are depleting resources, polluting quite efficiently... doing all sorts of harmful things. If we could set the clock back, would humanity have done it any differently? Is it a matter of ethics, tradition or karma? I don't think it matters in the long run.

We still have to educate the coming generations, even if the world isn't being treated too well, we must hope that humanity will learn.
I think part of the future generation will make it to the stars -- and they take this knowledge with them -- acting responsibly with regard to "Nature".

This planet has always been marvellous. We just have to learn how to treat it, ourselves and other people a little better.

does anyone want to join my army?

MASTER OF CHAOS, what kind of weaponry do you supply?

heavy rocks and pointy sticks!
