What is the most disturbing thing in the modern world?

Answer 1

this is one of the top 5 questions that should get 10,000 points just for asking. the thing that i find most disturbing is why we can't all get along. we are sharing the same planet, if we all worked together to the better good of all, there wouldn't be
all the disturbance at all. if everyone respected others beliefs
and feelings there may be a lot less hatred.
the most disturbing thing in the modern would is in tolerance
to others, faith, color, religion, their sexual preference,
race, or handicaps. it's up to us to remove these barriers
and start a new day, which i think has all ready begun.

Answer 2

Probably since the beginnings of formal human thought, and once basic problems of survival and security had been resolved, humans then had time to think about other things, and thus many then turned to themselves and began self-examination. One of the main questions they pondered was their own identities - who am I, and what makes me more than just a mere animal which fights, eats, shits, *****, and then goes to sleep, and then the next morning repeats the same things all over again? We begin to wonder if there is more to us and life than just these base activities - we ask, "Is this all I am?", "Is this all there is to life?"

Major subjects are spiritual, existential, psychological, social, political, cultural, erotic, etc... for example juxtaposing beauty and decay, beauty and pain, beauty and death, in such a way that would stimulate disturbing feelings such as bringing up erotic and disgusting feelings at the same time, that hopefully would then stimulate the observer to examine his/her concepts about physical beauty and the natural physical processes that inevitably affect the physical body such as disease, aging, decay, and death.
