Would you answer me this Legend:  Do you agree that things are worse now than they were, let's say:  15 years ago? 

yer i think thing in the world will be just like the future in the movies and we will bring an end to ourself before anything else will but i dont believe in god or anything the bible says mostly because the bible says we were the first thing to inhabit earth only a few thousad years ago and that was proven wrong by the discovery of dinosaurs just my opinion

those who believe in the the words of the bible (i do) already know when it talks about things that will come to past (Rev.) it's a sign of 2nd coming of Christ. where does that fit in this conversation?...i have no clue

edit: i guess it means although disrespectful children are uncalled for, it shouldn't be seen as a surprise o.O?

Because parent's this generation of man have grown weak and soft -_-; It seems like you can't go a day sometimes without hearing about new child abuse laws or some lame shit like that. Punishing a child is acceptable, beating the shit out of them is not, there is a MASSIVE line between the two and people like to pretend it doesn't exist.

The world has been consumed by living to work and we as a world simply need more time off to spend with family's and friends. There is a massive lack of communication within family's and in turn it leads to a much un-healthier relationship from parents to children.

I dunno I'm sure theres about a billion reasons :P

 Your psychotic interpretation of the Bible is not needed for a gaming forum site. Keep religion out of here. The religious people prophesising the end of the world within a few years or so need psychiatric help.

Thank god there are sane people in this world. 

 im not the only sane person then i thought it was just me

b/c we took the ability of parents away (some did give in with out a fight) and put more freedom in the hand of a child (who has not earned it)

here's the answer we've been looking for...

FIRST YORKSHIREMAN:
In them days we was glad to have the price of a cup o' tea.
SECOND YORKSHIREMAN:
A cup o' cold tea.
FOURTH YORKSHIREMAN:
Without milk or sugar.
THIRD YORKSHIREMAN:
Or tea.
FIRST YORKSHIREMAN:
In a cracked cup, an' all.
FOURTH YORKSHIREMAN:
Oh, we never had a cup. We used to have to drink out of a rolled up newspaper.
SECOND YORKSHIREMAN:
The best we could manage was to suck on a piece of damp cloth.
THIRD YORKSHIREMAN:
But you know, we were happy in those days, though we were poor.
FIRST YORKSHIREMAN:
Because we were poor. My old Dad used to say to me, "Money doesn't buy you happiness, son".
FOURTH YORKSHIREMAN:
Aye, 'e was right.
FIRST YORKSHIREMAN:
Aye, 'e was.
FOURTH YORKSHIREMAN:
I was happier then and I had nothin'. We used to live in this tiny old house with great big holes in the roof.
SECOND YORKSHIREMAN:
House! You were lucky to live in a house! We used to live in one room, all twenty-six of us, no furniture, 'alf the floor was missing, and we were all 'uddled together in one corner for fear of falling.
THIRD YORKSHIREMAN:
Eh, you were lucky to have a room! We used to have to live in t' corridor!
FIRST YORKSHIREMAN:
Oh, we used to dream of livin' in a corridor! Would ha' been a palace to us. We used to live in an old water tank on a rubbish tip. We got woke up every morning by having a load of rotting fish dumped all over us! House? Huh.
FOURTH YORKSHIREMAN:
Well, when I say 'house' it was only a hole in the ground covered by a sheet of tarpaulin, but it was a house to us.
SECOND YORKSHIREMAN:
We were evicted from our 'ole in the ground; we 'ad to go and live in a lake.
THIRD YORKSHIREMAN:
You were lucky to have a lake! There were a hundred and fifty of us living in t' shoebox in t' middle o' road.
FIRST YORKSHIREMAN:
Cardboard box?
THIRD YORKSHIREMAN:
Aye.
FIRST YORKSHIREMAN:
You were lucky. We lived for three months in a paper bag in a septic tank. We used to have to get up at six in the morning, clean the paper bag, eat a crust of stale bread, go to work down t' mill, fourteen hours a day, week-in week-out, for sixpence a week, and when we got home our Dad would thrash us to sleep wi' his belt.
SECOND YORKSHIREMAN:
Luxury. We used to have to get out of the lake at six o'clock in the morning, clean the lake, eat a handful of 'ot gravel, work twenty hour day at mill for tuppence a month, come home, and Dad would thrash us to sleep with a broken bottle, if we were lucky!
THIRD YORKSHIREMAN:
Well, of course, we had it tough. We used to 'ave to get up out of shoebox at twelve o'clock at night and lick road clean wit' tongue. We had two bits of cold gravel, worked twenty-four hours a day at mill for sixpence every four years, and when we got home our Dad would slice us in two wit' bread knife.
FOURTH YORKSHIREMAN:
Right. I had to get up in the morning at ten o'clock at night half an hour before I went to bed, drink a cup of sulphuric acid, work twenty-nine hours a day down mill, and pay mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our Dad and our mother would kill us and dance about on our graves singing Hallelujah.
FIRST YORKSHIREMAN:
And you try and tell the young people of today that ..... they won't believe you.
ALL:
They won't!

It is better to watch the video from youtube on that. 4 yorkshire men, err something...

edit: found it. here it is.
