and your point is ?

you can click on the posting you want to read, and you don't HAVE to read
those you don't like.
it's easy. ignore the ones you don't like.
like in a supermarket. only put those things into your shopping trolley,
you really need. you don't have to try out anything and buy anything.

>At what intellectual and social level is this discussion?

any level reaches the people that deserve the level. which level do you have
found ? ;-))


>I think it is low
>enough, that we should teach it to children already:

children want to be loved and live in social groups. they want to have
friendship
and they want to trust in somebody. an adult can behave different.
he can live alone, shit on friendship and betray.
we teach our children how to betray the best.
how to be the best in school, with all methods. and if the kid has
found out how "the system" works, it gets success in business.

low enough to teach to children ? thats paradox. children believe.
adults lost believing and resign from hoping.
how many children commit suicide, and how many adults do the same ?

i do not use weapons. i do not kill my comrades. i do not behave like wrestlers
or arnold schwarzenegger. i do not kill somebody because he is different
religion or race. i do not kill million of animals just for economic reasons.
i do not conquer foreign terretory. i do not throw bombs on civil-people.
is this all what we teach our children ?? we teach them how to do it.
but is this ok ? and which influence does it have on children when they see
adults behave this way ?

a better world. by adults ??? how ?
