Has anybody heard The World Today? On 9825 at 0200 they had a report on
the psychology of suicide bombing. Basically, the expert said that the bombers are disaffected young people fed up with the current social and religious constructs under which they live, and subsceptible to utopian dreams. When the promise of 72 virgins in Paradise for eternity is compared to what they see around them on the earthly plane, Paradise starts looking pretty damn good. They also mentioned that in Iraq different factions of Muslims are going into the mosques of the opposing faction and blowing themselves up. What all this adds up to is that no place is safe, and everybody between the ages of 13 and 25 is a potential terrorist. It's the same impulse that gave birth to the 60s counterculture, only much more damaging. What we're talking about is a threat not only to Western Civilization but to the basic building blocks upon which human interaction is built. If every teenager in the world decides that suicide bombing is better than earthly living, and the goal is simply to kill as many people as possible wherever and whenever they may be found, then the human race is probably doomed. We each go out into the world trusting that the people around us are not out to blow us up. Imagine if children start killing their parents, if bombs go off on school buses, if life becomes one long litany of death and destruction that can come from anybody, anywhere, anytime. Human society would tear itself apart trying to secure itself or trying to grab the scraps of existence before they too are blown up. The killing would continue until it ran out of people to kill, like a virulent virus that doesn't die until it has exhausted its host population. By the time the virus of suicide bombing ran out of participants, humanity would be no more. There has been lots of talk on this newsgroup about the threat we face, and the costs of losing. Well, here it is: we face the threat of having the building blocks of human existence come unraveled, and the result would be that the human race would cease to exist. We still don't know if there are other sentient species on other planets, and we may never find out. If humanity is truly alone, then its extinction would be the greatest loss that the universe has known in 20 billion years. ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- |

I thought about environmental polutants or the many microwaves flying thru the air has had some affect on the human brain itself altering it's normal thinking process. Then I thought it might be that mans brain has reached an evolutionary process where it can no longer "cope" with the data of it's own existance. Religion, politics, war, death, the internet, pornography, our search for pleasure, greed, all have jaded and desensitized us in all apsects of life. Existence now is not what it was just 30 years ago. It seems our brains can't solve our new problems or deal with them. People are literally "going insane" Lucky |

Interestingly, one of the suspects in the London bombings was 30 years old, and had a wife and young daughter. You'd think he'd have everything to live for. Sad. Mark. Auckland New Zealand. |

It is incredibly hilarious to watch you upchuck these Leftwing propaganda lines. It is especially revealing of your character when one knows so much more than you will ever realize.

On 9825 at 0200 they had a report on (snip my long post) I've tried to come up with a reason with the strange behavior not only for the terrorists but for crimes commited in our societies lately. I thought about environmental polutants or the many microwaves flying thru the air has had some affect on the human brain itself altering it's normal thinking process.

Religion, politics, war, death, the internet, pornography, our search for pleasure, greed, all have jaded and desensitized us in all apsects of life. Existence now is not what it was just 30 years ago. It seems our brains can't solve our new problems or deal with them. People are literally "going insane" Are you saying that the development of man's technology has outpaced the development of man's brain to the point that a brain hardwired for a much simpler, cruder world can't deal with the exponentially increasing complexities of the modern world? If so, then I'd have to tentatively agree with you. It would seem to be a function of chaos theory, where a system that keeps increasing in complexity eventually falls apart from the centrifugal force of its own uncontrolled expansion. Our brains developed in a hunter gatherer world, and for 99% of modern Homo Homo Sapiens's existence, that has been the prevailing norm. Even after the introduction of agriculture, life was pretty simple and straightforward. Even 70 years ago like was unhurried and simple, just ask any WW2 vet. Today we have to "multitask" and be on call 24-7. We're continually being bombarded with urgent tasks through cell phones and the internet. Most people feel rushed, can't get enough sleep, and have to work increasingly harder just to see themselves fall further behind. It seems that the stress factor of modern life has stretched our brains to the breaking point and beyond. People work 20 years without any vacations and sleeping 4 hours a night only to snap and end up locked in a rubber room for the rest of their lives. It seems that increasing numbers of people all over the world are snapping under the strain. It is an article of faith that the human mind is an elastic container that can be stretched indefinitely, when that is just not the case. Like everything else, it reaches a point where the strain is too much and it breaks. Eventually, all of civilization will reach a point where the strain becomes too much. The Muslim world has already reached that point. With no way out of their dilemma, the only option left is suicide. ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Uncensored-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- |
