WE are the downfall .. people.
A certain percent of our population are bent towards excess. They cannot control their greed.
We are greedy as we exit the womb .. we need to eat to survive.
That same survival instinct stays with us but as not alll people are equal, not all people will be able to temper that greed instinct with common sense, or the desire to work together in a society.
Be it their wiring is wrong, or they are weak and subject to stronger negative influences, or their parents let them get away with everything because it was easier for them that way ...
these people will always find a way to hurt and bother the other people around them.
I dont want to hear that the reason is because we are becoming godless because i can cite a lot of references (not with the complete and historical accuracy that Kemal can) where devout christians have caused more harm in the world than good.
The problem is people. We are a parasite on this planet and the good ones cannot repair the damage done by the bad ones. They work faster and with a greater effect.
There is no easy answer .. we are all driven to extiction by our own basic insatiable greed. Our 'survival mechanism backfiring like a bastard.
I know this sounds like melodramatic crap but its as fucking clear as crystal. Ask any environmentalist.
