How about tribal life? Anarchy outside of the the tribe. Inside of the tribe is pure democracy.

I was sort of just speaking about American and/or the global society of human beings, but obviously, peace and anarchy would be much easier to attain/sustain within a relatively extremely small group of people. :mob:

Maybe if the world runs out of oil this will happen

Before there is only a "relatively extremely small group of people" left on the Earth, billions have to die, so I doubt it would happen soon after the world runs out of oil; also, you have to consider that alternative energy technology has been improving lately. :earth:

The fact that the ideal has no place in our world is inane. How could we do anything in the real world if we dont plan things in an ideal realm? Nothing would be designed if we didnt work in an ideal environment and then develop a method of making the ideal work in the real world.

Just because an idea is impossible in our world, doesn't mean it has no use.

If you were one of those billions, would you even care if it was for the better? :strokebeard:

Amen, I have little, very little interest in culture or my fellow man anymore. Except as comedy of course.:satansmoking:

there's no requirement to stay concerned with or live inside "culture"

plus there's always drugs and neat experiences to be had

maybe you need a new friend, icelander?

Your personal comments are out of line. I have a friend that is beyond your comprehension.

Everyone lives inside and is concerned with culture. Think man.

IMO no. There is no evidence that is reasonable for the existence of a soul. The idea of soul, imo, is a direct result of death anxiety in man.

Nothing wrong with being tired of ones life. Maybe some folk want something more. Don't be so fast to laugh, I've got a feeling you are going to find this out for yourself one day.:satansmoking:

Nah my life is awesome. I just don't care if I die if it benifits the life force because either the other side will be awesome, or there will be nothing, or maybe i'll end up in hell. No way to know for sure.

I wasn't saying that you don't like your life. I was just saying there is nothing wrong with that position for anyone. Some people have high standards.:lol:

Oh i was replying to ploid. Yea i definitely want more from life. I've seen what I want in dreams and trips. heaven sure is beautiful... and achievable here on earth but not at this stage in human evolution. Yea Civilization is a bitch. I mean that in saying your culture is forced upon you.. YOU ARE CULTURE. Culture is not this book type set of customs and rules for you to follow like everyone sees it. That just makes you a robot. You are programmed by your culture. It shouldn't be like that. I applaud anyone who denies their culture in place of their own.
