if you keep away responsibility long enogh, then soon enogh, you will get more than you deserve.
take that anyway you want to. its my best effort to say something that cannot be taken out of context.
its so easy to peice by peice construct you life on top of the misgivings and evils of others. its not your fault evil happened, you arent even involved. but do you profit from it?
whatever you profit from, you must ultimately be responsible for.
even the most devout and generous christians live in homes tainted with a history of wrechedness.
no, the past cannot be changed, TRUE its not for us to say what world we have been given.
but it is ENTIRELY our responsibility once it becomes ours. me must do the best with the time we are given.
is this your best? allowing the world to again repeat history the same way as always because its the way things go?
because if you let things take care of themselves they will..
is this good enough reason to allow terrible things to happen? because its not YOUR fault?
what of your children? that will have to live with the histoy you wroght? will they remember you and feel proud, or dismiss your actions as "of the times" and live proudly in spite of you.
repeating you...
are you content?
if you, the reader, understands this, then you understand how important it is. you understand that perhaps others wont understand. you understand that it ekokes feelings of responsibility you were never meant to know.
but you have them.
and knowing this is how you begin to live.

Incorrect. I profit immensely every day from technology (which, remember, includes everything from agriculture to vaccinations to toothpaste) I was not responsible for bringing into being.
even the most devout and generous christians live in homes tainted with a history of wrechedness.
This does not mean that the sins of the fathers make the sons guilty. The concept of original sin is a false one.
but it is ENTIRELY our responsibility once it becomes ours.
Or at least that part of it which is ours. How does this truism jibe with the two above falshoods? Can you explain it for us, please?

I think you misunderstood the premise.

this is the very important aspect which society and the majority on this planet have forgot, and their time for remembering draws nearer every second they choose to ignore their actions. a shitty base, and the house of cards will fall as soon as a slight wind comes to knock it down. people are blind and are walking into a trap, that cage they like, there cars they like to drrive, it will all come back.
