Have you ever wished you could go back in time, before GAys, Radicals, terrorists, etc?

Question

I look at the world today, and I wish I could turn the time back, back before ERA(Equal Rights Amendment), before terrorism, before radicals, before presidents calling on a war which takes forever to win( I dont know if this war with Iraq is winnable). How many other people feel the same?

I have my opinion concerning Gays, they say they didnt choose ?
I am straight myself.

Answer 1

Have you ever read UTOPIA written by Plato, he has also imagined a state where all these were not there. But he, himself has admitted that such a place/state has nither had happend nor any possibilities are there. This book was written in BC. Now imagine that there was no such society in the times Before Christ, how can you think of going back in the time. If you really want to go back in the time....go back to a time where the concept of society was not there....men were just roaming around here & there, living in caves, eating herbs etc. Since you have written that you are more concerned about gays, let me explain you that there were gays in 1400 BC as well. History tells us about a lots of cases like this.
It is a real shame that you are putting gays with terrorists, think about it another time and then you'll feel how wrong you are....merely saying that you are straight doesnt make you straight unless you can give any proove of it and you know that you can not give any proof that you are a straight man...I am straight myself and I am not questioning your origination but i am trying to tell you that gays are not that bad as you think of them. They also are humans, they also have two eyes, two ears and the same organs everywhere...Just on the basis of having another preference..that too when they don't harm anyone or other's feelings. it will be unjust with them to put them in the category of terrorists. Think about it my friend, the God who made me and you, he only has made them, and they deserve the same respect as we do.
God Bless You.

Answer 2

You can't go back in time before any of those... whether or not a person is radical is relevant to the beliefs of that time, and there have always been people more extreme than others. Gays always existed, at least as far back as Ancient Greece. There has always been violence, and I would consider the Inquisition to be a form or terrorism.

And I would never want to go back to a time where I was not allowed to think, feel, or act independently.

Answer 3

I think you hade better shut off fox news and open a book. Gays, radicals and terrorists have b.een in existence since very ancient times, anyone who disagrees with the powers that be or who is different from the norm can be labeled something unpopular., The American revolutionary war was begun by terrorists. Are you aware of that? Famous Israeli heros like Moshe Dayan and Ben Gurion were terrorists, too

Answer 4

Are you asking about wishing to go back to before there were humans? I'm straight myself, but I'm pretty sure that being homosexual isn't some new trend, it's a human feature, like having brown hair or long legs....brush up on your history/anthropology...it may help you understand that aspect a little more. All of those things have been around since there has been civilization....it sounds like you're describing when life expectancy was about 30 and you had to chase your food before you could eat it...I'm happier in this way.

Answer 5

If i did not understand that you've been talking out your "A" i could say you've been one hundred% suitable. do not trouble he wont be there lengthy, Martin is in Hawaii getting the lowdown on his previous and we do not even desire that. His dad became a Kenyan. Kenya became a British Colony. That made his dad a British Citizen. Male British voters remote places which have babies make their babies British voters at beginning resembling they were born in London. there is not any British Citizen which could ever be seen a organic Born American. no man or woman it truly is no longer a organic Born American can ever be President. So wager what? he's not PRESIDENT! in no way will be. we do not even understand for particular he's an American Citizen. He has his historic previous locked up tighter that Hilly's sock. we may manage to call ICE and get him deported. the earlier the more suitable positive.

Answer 6

Today is a gift, that's why it's called the present.

But enough of that, I happen to like today pretty much (except for the unending war, I agree with you on that) and I hope the future move in the right direction. I like that people have the ablitiy to be who they want, and be open about it and avoid persecution. I'd love to go back to a time where we didnt have weapons that could destroy so many people with such ease, prevent them from ever being invented, then come back to today.

Answer 7

It doesn't matter how far back in time you go. There have always been gays. Greeks even included them in their mythology. What do you think Zeus kidnapped Ganymede for? How about Apollo falling in love with Hykinthos?

Terrorists have been around for awhile too. "Zealots" were people who assassinated Romans.

Oh yeah, the Equal Rights Amendment never passed. Look it up.

Answer 8

No, I never want to go back. You should always play the cards your dealt. For you, the past might be better, but for some it may be worse. About the "gays", I am straight too, but I dont choose to look at a ladies breast or thighs, it just comes natural. So i guess I didnt choose either.

Answer 9

you make it sound like you are on the cusp of some great social reform, in which you and only you are the first to witness terrorism (word origin 18th century), that a leader has never lied about a war (Vietnam, Suez etc) and the most disturbing of all that basic human rights are a bad thing, particularly towards gays.

Here's a idea, why don't you go into your basement lock yourself in and wait a few decades in the hope that your fascist state may come about, that way you will save us from your mindless drivel.

Answer 10

Sorry, but if you went back in time, it was just get worse. Hell, just 50 years ago, there was HORRIBLE violence against not just the African-Americans, but life for women was a lot worse than it is now. About 100 years ago, the Native-Americans were being killed off by the hundreds. Around 1,000 years ago, Christians were being killed because they weren't Catholic and Pagans were being killed just for being.

How far back you go wouldn't matter. It's all the same. Look to the future and make it better there by what you do today.
