Topic: What has the world come to?
Seriously, after talking to a friend who says she's 'neutral' about the topic it got me wondering. Does the world really have as much hope as the movies portray it? It makes me sad, now that I think about it as the world goes lower and lower into the underground world of corruption and deceit. Now I don't know if it's just me being an angsty teen or if this is really happening around me, because nowadays all I see on the news are people being bombed, or killed or raped. Rarely, does the news really have anything that is even remotely happy, though the news wouldn't be as interesting if it did now that I think about it.
Now the argument that I had with my friend today was that humans are corrupt, pathetic and evil whereas animals were one of the few pure things that are left in the world. See, my argument was that animals only attacked humans out of fear as a result of the abuse that humans show towards animals (like in the PETA videos). And that the world is going through global warming as a result of the industrialisation that humans have developed throughout the years, thus making humans one of the main reasons for the state that the world is currently in. Now, I know that I myself am an omnivore so I'm actually part of this species, though I can't help in what I believe in.
Though my friend stated, that accepting that humans are weak was just an easier way out. She stated that animals were the weak part of the world, thus making them hunted and consumed by humans. My friend also has the extreme determination that there are good people in the world and that there is hope within the world. Which I admire, though I know I don't have. Now, I know that not everyone is totally corrupt, but I'm sure that everyone has a bit of evil in them (my mom once told me that anything that was once white, will eventually turn black).
Yeah... I'm done with my rambling. Sorry if some of this doesn't make sense, I'm on skype with 3 other people and I'm trying to listen to their conversation while trying to remember my friend's argument on how the world. Sorry if some of it doesn't make sense.
