Default Re: A Retired Internationalist: After 50 Years

Ok Ron, so you are not pushing religion but you are extolling the virtues of a single all controlling state by saying that this is the way forward for a world in constant upheaval?
Out of order comes chaos not usually the other way round.
For example, I hoover up some house dust to be clean & tidy and to reduce the chaos in my personal space but in doing so I used lots of electricity which is being produced by burning fossil fuels at a power station, butterfly effect, cause and effect, order and chaos, its the way of the world.
The only way you can bring about a more ordered world is by doing nothing, or at least very little! Nature is very good at that and us humans are rubbish always doing things to excess.
Al Gore flies around in a private jet telling people to stop wasting energy or we'll all die horribly in a global warming catastrophy.
Hypocrisy is everywhere.
What all powerful body would you entrust with this ultra-stable single state world Ron? Not the US in its present form surely but that's what's already being planned by the senate! World domination in the name of god to combat perpetual terrorism, well, thats the latest lame excuse!
If I'm wrong then by the time it matters, I'll be too old to care, and if I'm right then you'd better start praying to the invisible man up there in the sky because he's the only one who's going to be able to help you!

Sorry if I sound like a sad case Ron but as I get older and see, hear and understand more of the world around me the less I want to understand. My opinion for what its worth, we made a massive mess down here and we're incapable of clearing it up. Global warming is coming to cleanse the earth of the human virus that infests it, we didn't cause it, how could we be so pretentious, we can't prevent it so the best thing is learn to survive as best we can and learn to live with the changes just like our ancestors did. It may mean living a much simpler life-style though! ...and if we all die in the process then we can always put it down to evolution, its been working fine for the past 4.5 billion years.
