open your eyes and look around you, and tell me your veiws, famine, disease, drugs, babies having babies, grown people messing with babies, mothers killing their children, jobs are slim, and don't have a record cause then there slim and none, crime rate rises everyday, you can base the value of someones life now by the attire they have, home invasions, rapes, robberies, trafficing getting our children to sell dope and then if they can't then try to get them on it, all the individual families that have a feind living with them that they love who they can't help, because nothing matters to them anymore but getting high, war, all the people that was killed on nine 11, huricanes, and other storms and wars that have claimed lives, parents that are being mistreated by their children, the elderly being mistreated in the nursing homes and can't do anything about it because they've just been left there, the humbleness that mankind has lost for a human being. You are your brothers keeper.

I believe the world is what you make it. Us as Americans and as individuals can make a difference in our own communities and our families. Spend more time with your families and less time socializing in bars etc... We need to teach our children old fashioned morals and values. Yes I am from a small town in Nebraska and a farming community. Believe it or not we have drug problems here as well as suicides and shootings. I have always made time for my kids and their problems in school and elsewhere. My daughter was on drugs for two years before I even knew. I never took them when I was a kid so I was ignorant on the whole thing. But between having family talks and support from our minister here we were able to stop her before she hurt herself and anyone else including her "younger brother" which was the best kid anyone could ask for because he saw what that did to her. Now my daughter is married to a wonderful man that has helped her get through the withdraws and mood swings and everything else she has gone through to control this. It will always be there and the need and pressure is always there for her, but she knows is loved by us and God always. So my answer to your question is always have faith and things will get better.

don't you blame LORD GOD cause your prophet Jesus said not to test the LORD your God cause He is just a human male just like Jesus was. And when the things like scales fell out of the mans eyes they were contacts. And when Jesus walked on water it was like in the indianna jones crusader movie. And thus because you haven't actually given any power to LORD GOD through allegience or funds they don't expect Him to overthrow your rich leaders or perform miracles. He can't. no one can or ever has. The sorry thing about your races of man is that they are just plain greedy. Each and every one of you is that way. Who among you actually gives money directly to the poor in your own city. Jesus said don't trust the churchs cause preacher needs a new car. And emperor is their god and He is unbeleivably rich. Church and state Ie alledged God and Emperor people want to control you like slaves and take your money to fill their bellies. If you begin to beleive that LORD GOD might just be a man who came in the flesh then you can see how bible descriptions and translation dictionaries of God seem to describe a man who if a deity would be Man. see this and get bummed out cause the predicted LORD GOD has no magic or money or cures for what is wrong with this world.

Actually, crime is at the lowest rate it's been in years. But I guess I see your point though. People just care about themselves and everyone is going to do what they want. We can't change people who don't want to change themselves. I know it's unfortunate, but we just have to keep living.

life is what it is. you are one person, and if you want to enjoy life, do what makes you happy. you cannot control certain things, and if you are going to be base your decisions of life by negative things, then you will never live life to the fullest. just be you and dont worry about other stuff. be aware of it, but dont make it your soul purpose to function, and oh by the way there are tons of good stuff out there. good and bad are one in the same, you need bad to enjoy the good. you must be young, because sometimes I used to ponder such things, but really, enjoy life, and dont ask of things you may never have to deal with, unless they are right in your face. you are one person, the weight of the world does need to be taken on by one person, just be you. i dont normally answer these things, but you just set yourself up, caring and having a good heart is one thing, but dont make the world seem that bad. there are tons of good things going on in the world...society can make things look frustrating, but explore it the way you want to. be an individual, not a clone.

Crime is lower today than its been in 30 years.
Average life expectancy is higher than its been in human history.
Infant mortality rates are lower than they have ever been in human history.
Human rights are guaranteed to more people today than they have been in history.
Things are actually going pretty good, by just about any measure.

People are becoming more evil, so more evidence of that is inevitable.
This (that people would be more evil) was prophesied by St. Paul, in the New Testament.

its a downward spiral....people have learned to lose faith, place blame wherever they can instead of accepting responsibility, and just overall become lazy and in it all for themselves....its officially self-destruct mode

Pick one problem that bothers you the most and devote time to it.
