In the modern age we see violence, terror and Immorality on the TV, the Internet and in newspapers every day. Has the world suddenly become such a terrible place or could it be that we are just more aware these days. Perhaps all media doe's is open our eyes to all these things? After all, if we look back in time it is very clear that the human race has never been unfamiliar with war, violence, hatred and prejudice.
If In fact we are actually in decline and becoming more violent and less humane as a race, why is that? Could it be that media is to blame or is religion really the root of all evil?
Are we becoming more tolerant to violence? On one hand we say war is bad, end terror, but on the other hand we further and further allow TV, films, computer games and even the music industry to glorify and subject us to it every day. How far can you keep pushing the line before there is no longer a line?
