Our Future

Mission Statement:

to save the world from ignorance,fear and prejudice

blog rules

no purposeful stupidity please

respect yourself,respect others

if you want to bitch take it somewhere else


1st subject for discussion

the Arab spring


I see a hope in the world that brings people out of their houses,schools,workplaces to face guns and tanks in the streets where they live,work and play

this inspires great respect in me for those people who continue to face great danger and death every day in simple actions such as the search for bread

what would make a person face such peril?

is it a search for dignity for the self,the family ,the state?

is it a hope for prosperity,for education?

is it a love for others,a human social instinct?

or is it a basic human response to the presence of evil in the world and a clash between good and evil on the most basic level?

evil being represented here by the will to use indiscriminate violence in order to retain hegemony over another person,place,nation or state without the inclusion of discussion,reason or purpose

I will be inviting people I know who have displayed intelligence ,reason and goodwill to me in the past to join this blog and offer their opinions,hopefully it can grow into something with use and purpose and can help us all educate each-other about ourselves,our hopes and our abilities,

so thank you for looking in,please feel free to post as you will

please respect the basic laws of decency regarding language,links,pictures etc and take into account that,hopefully,people of all religions ,age-groups,professions,sexuality etc will be using this site and act in accordance if you can

think before you act
