I love my country and my God but I've noticed comparing us to the Muslims and the Middle East our religions and nationals are really a bunch of cowards. Now don't get me wrong I do not believe we should start burning Qur'ans and drawing pictures of Mohammed on the toilet or insulting peoples faiths. But why is it okay for everyone around the world to dump on North America but when we do one thing the whole world freaks out. Every day in the Muslim world Bibles are burned and desecrated. Christians in North Africa and the Middle East get raped then murdered brutally for their faith. Yet North American's do absolutely nothing , we hear the odd activist go on TV and vocalize their position. But you don't see Christian's in the streets burning Palestinian flags or Somalian flags. You don't see huge crowds of Christians screaming death to Muslims and burning charactures of Mohammed. Yet a few days ago I saw Muslim protestor burning epogies of Jesus Christ and screaming death to Christians. Now as a Christian I think an eye for an eye is not a good way to do things but you'd think that somebody would stand up and do something. Think a second really what was that moronic pastor doing? He was yes being very confrontational but he was just going to do something that Muslims do to Christian's every day. I actually saw more footage of Muslims burning Bible's, where are the angry Christian's? Why aren't our governments yelling and getting upset at Saudi Arabia or Palestine for burning Bible's? You don't see the Pope calling the President of Turkey and asking them to stop muslims from desecrating our holy books. Also it isn't just Christian's what about Afghanistan where thousands of Buddhist holy texts and Buddha statues were destroyed. Nobody said a thing we just sat by and watched it happen. Now a mosque wants to move into ground Zero. Now constitutionaly they have every write to build one, but a greek church across the street isn't alowed to build. Then rumours swirl around that the politicians want to make peace with hardline muslims and this mosque could help appease them.
Free speach for example. I was so upset when South Park was going to air an episode with Mohammed and before it aired their were protests and death threats flying around. Finally the south park creators censored the episode. But its perfectly fine for South Park and everyone else to insult Jesus and North America but you insult Islam and your dead.
So why doesn't North America grow a back bone. Seriously I don't agree with burning anyones holy book. But if some whack pastor wants to burn one in retaliation for 9/11 or South Park wants to air an episode with Mohammed. Frick sakes they have every right to express their opinions. Anyone wonder why our countries cower to the Middle East? |
what you depicted is the exact reason why the west european/north american culture will disapear in a couple of years... the belief that everyone is equal and entitled to the same things is fine if everyone plays the game, but only the industrial countries do. We'll soon be like those lost civilzations in video games.... a highly advanced society that is now extinct. Our standards will be gone, just the memory of our human rights crazyness that was the downfall of our societies.
There is a racial aspect to this decline too with growing birth rate in 3rd world countries and delcining birth of the industrial countries, what do you think will happend of the white population? they will gradually cross with the other ones (example, aren't african americans said to have a very high white gene %?), but as they will be in high minority in the future and as our countries are the prime destination for a migration influx of other races, the crossing will gradually increase with only the arrival of new blood from other races. There will still be blacks, asians, arabs, indians, but whites will rarify and the in its place will be a melting pot ala brazil. Whites won't be totally extinct though, more like neanderthalis that was recently found to have mindled with homo sapiens....though so diluted that they are there only in traces. It's sad but in 10 000 years there won't be any more white man and the mixed race will have only minimal traces of the white man. Though if you forward an other 10 000 years it's likely that you'll only have an Asian/black mixed race left...or rather mainly balck as Africa is the area that is least likely to industralize soon and lower birth rates...
This is not meant at being racist, meerly at predicting an unavoidable future, that the human race will homogenize and that the first ones to fully join this melting pot will be the least represented in the final mix.
