I think I will start my own church so I can live in a big house rent-free, utility-free,tax-free drive a Rolls Royce, because my flock believes every word I say...and worships me more then their God!
Thank you for those words...I understand what you are saying, because those are my beliefs as well, Light will become lighter and dark will become darker, it is happening already, the trick is hanging on...
All I did was write from my heart hoping that people would be kinder to people, but I can see by some of these post is reason why we will never get along...continue in your life and I will in mine...I will never post here again, or write from my heart...because I have given up on mankind.
The reason why the LA Fitness gunman killed those people was because of rejection....and I can see why he did it.
CNN, Fox News, Local Media spread the word of death, famine and destruction. Every day thousand of minutes tick by filling your heads with these calamities.
Have you ever rented a movie and one of your favorite character dies at the end, tears well up on your eyes and a part of you dies with the character. Then you watch the movie over and over again. You find yourself not crying anymore, you have become desensitized to the death of your favorite character.
Gunman opening fire on innocent people, school killings, stabbings, terrorist attacks, plane crashes, and the list goes on and on, everyday, every minute; we are bombarded with negative pictures and stories, desensitizing us to death.
Empathy is a thing of the past. People rather turn their heads then help a person who has been beaten in public view, or help an old lady cross the street. Buy groceries for the family that has none. Smiling to a stranger is a thing of the past. This is the desensitizing of the world.
People wonder why there are crazy gunmen loose on the streets, anywhere at any time you could be the one begging for mercy while he stands with you in his scope. He has watched so much of the dying and the killing that it doesn’t matter to him who he takes out. Violent video games desensitize our youth who are the future of this world.
How can we turn this around? Find empathy in your heart, truly feel the loss of the 10 month old baby who was beaten, truly ache for its death. Help an old lady cross the street, buy a stranger a rose, smile at people you pass in the store, help someone who has broke down in their car, with random acts of kindness.
People pray for peace, BE PEACE, BE EMPATHY and watch the world we live in turn around.
I took and shower and that is where I have my greatest Ah-hah moments..
It is the media that has desensitized people..
My theory:
You rent a movie, where someone dies and you cry the first time, then you watch it again, again and again. After the 10th time of watching it you don't cry anymore, you have become desensitized over the death of the character.
The news media bombards us with death, mayhem and brutal killings every day...we have become desensitized to the happens in the world. Death, drive-by shootings, terrorist attacks, etc. are nothing more then daily news.
"It's already well known that playing violent video games increases aggressive behavior and decreases helping behavior," said University of Michigan researcher Brad Bushman. "But this study is the first to link exposure to violent video games with a diminished reaction to violent images."
And these are the children of the future...the ones who will be taking care of us older folk..
