Poem From Unknown Source
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From Dust To Skys
From Earth To Space
We All United
In Our Dream To Leave This Place
Tears Were Shed
False Gods Dead
People Killed
But In The End
Did we come out ahead?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Post your thoughts on what humanity has accomplished learned from out mistakes and hope this race will learn in time...... ?

We dont seem to be learning much do we.
The only thing we seem to learn is new ways to self-destruct.

I think we are learning plenty....just using it very wrongly.

I think the truth is we learn that there is simply more to learn.
Some people use the knowledge that they have well, and some people use it badly, neither side has the monopoly.

So, how much longer do you think we have to go on this spinning rock? How long will it be before we are all wiped out?

I think it's up to us as individualls . All too often when we have problems we de-personalise it by blaming it on
Humanity as PS said some people use the knowledge they have well and others use it badly .
If 1,000,000 people learn that war is a terrible thing 1 person can still come out and start a war (theoretically speaking). It dosen't mean that we don't learn from our mistakes , just that we have a long way to go before everyone catches up with the cleverer ones ....

Knowledge leads to power, and power is what is cancerous, not people. There is decency in all people at birth, but reasoning becomes corrupted and sensibility is numbed through the advance of society as a whole. Humanity is not cancerous, power is.
Unfortunetly Power and Humanity are tied so closely together.

My god no wonder there is such a huge amount of depression around with this kind of view so common amongst internet uses . For goodness sake , I thought babies where born emotionless and where trained or learnt bonding and decency , then become teenagers who become jaded before the've even seen the world . Look if you can't handle the power give it to me I promise I'll use it wisely

If either man or woman would realize that the full power of personal beauty, it must be by cherishing noble thoughts and hopes and purposes; by having something to do and something to live for that is worthy of humanity, and which, by expanding and symmetry to the body which contains it.
Upham
To hate a man because he was born in another country, because he speaks a different language, or because he takes a different view of this sufject or that, is a great folly. Desist, I implore you, for we are all equally human...Let us have but one end in view, the welfare of humanity.
John Comenius
There are seven sins in the world: Wealth without work, Pleasure without conscience, Knowledge without character, Commerce without morality, Science without humanity, Worship without sacrifice and politics without principle.
Mahatma Gandhi (1869 - 1948)
