In reply to Jackspratt:
I think you're going to need to explain a few things in more detail to be taken more seriously. For starters, how about the following:
> the ruthless enslavement of underage underpaid minorities for the advancement of the western way of life
Simply, wtf?
> the fact that the Human species is the single most detrimental thing to ever happen to the planet.
Is it? Since they are a comparatively recent evolution I suspect this is a long way from the truth.
> I am not saying that I am Gandhi reincarnate but I do recognize that any person has the ability to change the world for better or worse.
As others have said, what have you done to change it?
> Are we not all guilty of manslaughter, cruelty to animals and the destruction of the planet?
Again, simply wtf?
> I thought that in the 21st century we had long passed the time when the strongest ravage all those weaker than themselves with little conscience.
Again, wtf? Who are the 'strongest' ravaging 'all those weaker'?
> I've also succumbed to being utterly ashamed of being part of this and strongly believe that as a species we are evil, in the sense that we fully understand what we are doing is wrong and yet we continue do it for completely selfish gain.
'Doing' what? As a species we are neither 'evil' nor 'good'. Individuals, or groups, may be either of those things but to tarnish everyone is lazy and inaccurate. Are you excluding yourself from this 'evil' assessment?
