Copy/Paste the wrong link. I fixed it.

1) No Flaming. No Trolling. Flaming or spiritual bashing is not tolerated in this section. Do not provoke others with incendiary or condescending remarks.

Questioning someone's motivations is trolling. It has nothing to do with the discussion and it borders on disrespect.

And while posting irrelevancies is not expressly against the rules, it's off topic.

4) We need a smaller, less-intrusive government.

Let's just all stick to the topic unless the topic is your fellow poster, OK?

The topic here is "We are angry with our leaders", not "Icelander's Motivations".

Well I've been doing a little research here and there seems to be some case for humans being more violent in the past.  However there are mixed conclusions as to why this might be so. What makes the most sense to me is that we are less violent not because we are getting less emotionally violent but basically we have less need to be violent.  In much of the world basic food and shelter needs are met.  In parts of the world where this is a problem you can expect there to be more violence.  Same emotional landscape but different actions based on need. In a scenario where overpopulation and scarcity of resources becomes a survival issue we can expect violence to increase.  So far we have been able to keep starvation localized to small areas of the world but the future may be iffy. Also much violence is imo sublimated. In business they use terms such as "dog eat dog or I'm going to make a killing" etc. and the same scenario is acted out but not with actual physical violence and death a direct result.

IMO the likely hood of violence being dramatically lessened in our emotional landscape would be an evolutionary process taking unknown thousands of years. Evolution is a very slow process.

So my personal conclusion is that we have less violence because we are in a safe place materially. If that changes all bets will be off.  The bottom line will be survival and violence and division will increase.

I see exactly that happening now. Almost all of these current unrest's around the world are result of people starvation and very very low life standards. As food prices increase, it could only produce results we see around.

It's a constant power struggle that I see everywhere  on so many levels. IF it benefits the individual they will cooperate to some degree. If basic resources ever truly become scarce then I don't want to be around for it.  However this is mirrored everywhere in nature and is perfectly natural.

They are not truly scarce yet.. but with food price increase, and with price increase of many other stuff, many people just are not capable and willing to close their eyes, cuz shit is now in their backyard... and it all happened in 'all of a sudden'. Its not a power struggle, its struggle for life these days... maybe its not so visible now, but if this trend continue... well see fire all around, possibly in few years time, or sooner or later.. although I hope not.

Well the end times have been predicted in each generation so it's impossible to tell what the future will bring.  I'm moving into the end phase of my life so I'm not very invested in how it all plays out.  I'm just going to watch the show like I am now.

End of times is really undefined and unreasonable idea. And there is no way, that planet will just explode. More likely that current social and political system will change... for better or worse. Either way enjoy the ride. I know I do.

Well he never said it wasn't a discussion; do you think that, just because this is not a debate, the rules don't apply? :wtf:

Who said that this isn't a debate, anyways? I've seen a lot of debate in this thread, much of it coming from OP.
