dragonMon, Dec 29, 2008 It's all very well and good to say helping yourself is the answer. Healing yourself.
The problem was caused by selfishness.
Let's face it; we're all selfish and proud. Willing to buy clothes from sweatshops, allowing our governments to exploit Africa. So we can get a little ahead, and live in luxury. Complacency is another problem.
Doesn't mean that we couldn't make a difference though. There's always that warm fuzzy feeling you get from doing something to help other people. We just need to find a more direct route to people's minds. It starts with healing everyone...
I would also like to point out that, due to my belief there's no pre-defined set of morals, people are more than welcome to think the way they do... and believe whatever they want...
I'm just getting at the idea; if you think our planet is in trouble, and that's a problem, we should find a solution...
