The bottom line is people don't care the way they used too back in the day..that in itself makes for a bad society I believe..And further more children are having children which makes for bad rearing..  :angry7:

Yes i agree.
I am tired of my kids hearing curse words on the radio and butts on the tv. I am tired of worrying about them getting into drugs when they get into high school because 90% of high school kids do them.

I would have to write a book to tell all the things I feel about today's society but I prefer to dwell on the remedy rather than the symptoms. We have always had wars, murder,rape, child molestation, abuse, *bleep*, greed etc. All of them have existed since time began but it was all behind the curtain and not as obvious to the masses. Incest and child abuse were NEVER talked about. Wars were glorified and you had to go down dark alleys to find *bleep* and *bleep*. Today all of it is watched on tv the internet or in the movies. It is hard to shock people today. Even worse is to some, it is all accepted- even cool. The only way out of this global mess is spirituality,responsibility,morality and a desire to live a life of service to others rather than service to self.

I think people get off way to easy. I say kill them all on Death Row. That would uncrowd the prisons.

You should be put to death if:
1. You kill another
2. You molest a child
3. You rape a female
4. You hurt another person, intentially

I would love to see a world without so much violence and be able to walk down the street and not have to watch your back.

I also think *bleep* and strip joints need to be done away with.

Yes, this world is very disgusting and cannot wait until God gets rid of the wicked


OMG seriously *bleep* and strip joints??? Out of world hunger, poverty and gangs your choosing your words to say that *bleep* and strip joints should be banned. LMAO ignorance is bliss!!  :BangHead:

Not really, I could go on and on with more things but what's the point because nothing is going to change anyways and it is just a waste of time.

If you believe in your heart that it is a waste of time then why did you even post. It takes ONE person to make a change. It takes years and years for changes to occur but if you feel that nothing will ever change then I feel sorry for you. Stand up and believe in yourself, make a difference, only you can hold yourself back!!

for my 30 posts is why i posted but I don't want to get into a deep discussion and that is why I felt it was a waste of time

I just think it's funny that "female" is very specific. I guess men can get raped. ('-'*)

 :sad1:  When I was young, my friends and I would camp out in our front yards.. NO ONE does that now. It is tooo dangerous. We used to buy a movie ticket for 50 cents, and see two movies ,three cartoons, and be able to stay to see the movies over and over if we wanted to.. Going to the movies on a Saturday , was an all day thing. We bought candy bars for 5 cents each. And penny candy was THREE for a penny.We ate together at the table every night as a family. We prayed before we ate. We minded the teachers, or she would send us to the office, where we would be spanked with a paddle.. then spanked again when we got home for causing a problem at school. {I was lucky, and never got spanked} We said."Yes Mamme. And Yes Sir, when spoken to by our elders. We listened with delight to our Grandparents talking about the "good 'ol days". We respected others. We thought weed was the stuff you pulled out of the front lawn, and We wanted to grow up without worrying about keeping our front door locked at all times. We sat on the front porch, and listened to kids play red rover, when we wern't in the game ourselves. Pizza was a treat we got only once in a while, not every night, and it wasn't delivered. You could buy an ice cream cone at' Foster Freeze' for a nickle..... I miss being 10.

When we ALL were growing up and becoming "of age" things were a lot easier Now it takes an act of congress for you to properly punish your kids! THIS WORLD we live in now needs more discipline and less whining!

I think that people seem to have forgotten what the important things in life are.
Yes I agreed!

No, we don't need more rules.  We merely need people to continue recognizing their stake and influence in the world.

Amen, and some basic manners would be nice.
