I was browsing a struggling secular musical artist’s profile a second ago and it hit me.  Deep down, that’s what everyone wants.  Not particularly to be a secular artist, but to have recognition, to be important.  Why do you think so many inventions are thought up, theories, great discoveries?  One could argue that it’s because most people want to better the human race, because they have duty, humanity, etc… But I don’t think so.  In fact, I’m almost certain that’s not it.  When you get down to it, they want recognition.  Don’t get me wrong, there have been a lot of great minds that were selfless, thinking of others before themselves, and truly wanting to help.  But when it comes down to it, most people are just like that struggling musical artist I was talking about.  They want to get rich, famous, make tons of money, and live what most people refer to as the “American dream.”  I’m really not a fan of that terminology, simply because that’s why most other countries despise America.  One of the many reasons.  What’s another you may ask?  Well, have you been to a buffet lately?  The enormous amounts of food that is put out for gluttonous citizens.  Don’t mistake me for complaining though.  We are capitalistic, and we have earned that right.  It’s just funny to me that so many stupid people wonder why we’re despised.  And of course, it  comes down to more than just food, etc… but I won’t get into that.

It still shocks me day by day to see the steady decline of our civilization.  America is Rome, people.  If you can’t see it, go read your history books.  The main thing that gets me is the immorality that has escalated to the extreme in the last fifty years.   We, just as the Romans, started off pure.  However as time went on, more and more became acceptable.  To be honest, I think a lot of that has to do with the fact that they always needed more and more and more.  Does that makes sense?  Individuals high on the chain of command, bureaucrats, etc… get whatever they want, and this is more-so true in Roman times than now, but even so.  What I mean is, sure, they started off with a woman, then it got boring, two women, three women, let’s add a man, a child, two children, etc…  You see where I’m going.  That’s an example of what’s going on with our civilization as a whole.  Pornography is one example.  There are some wretched things out there, and that’s directly caused by the desire for more more more in my opinion.
