Just a thought, Not a poem...

While we (human beings) think ourselves so advanced, we really are just another animal species and our evolution has not changed since when we first climbed down from the trees and asked why? While we keep getting answers to this eternal question, it was not that long ago that we made the leap from eating with our hands to using the fork. ( It did not become common in northern Europe until the 18th century and was not common in North America until the 19th century.) We were burning witches at the stake, and today we still, stone women to death, if they are married and raped in some parts of the world. Enlightenment and evolutionary changes seem to be few and far between. We follow like sheep, let our passions erupt, oft times without thinking. We let others do our thinking for us, instead of doing our due diligence, and researching for ourselves. While popular opinion can be vociferous and difficult to go against, were it not for the strong and independent thinking, we would still be tortured and maimed because we did not follow the church's views. Want people to hear what you have to say? Present with love. It is a much stronger force than anger or hate. Anger and hate may win in the short run, but love will reign supreme in the long run, because people want to feel warm and fuzzy, not fearful and angry.
