We are now living through a great period of extinction, through an epoch of idea-death.
Life is, if it is nothing else, the chance to try something new. Death is blindly following "city policy."We are now living through a great period of extinction, through an epoch of idea-death. Christianity, the nuclear family, individual initiative, the notion of country, the very idea of gender, even the primacy of survival are in the process being declared surplus to requirements. A thousand ideas, the bloom of the forest, are being bulldozed into the soil by those all too certain of themselves. Sandbox | Belmont Club

Your Say
It's all quite simple and depressing.
Overall, we're suffering from mood and attitude of lassitude. Too many have had it too good for too long while doing too little.
Too many have taken on a hopeless slave mentality -- the government will feed us, clothe us, house us, and brain drain us.
Too many have accepted the master baits of domineering government and moronic societal mores. Too many don't even realize that they don't care for anything better.
Zombies were made that way; too many of us are deliberately dancing their way backwards to zombieness.

One of the defining characteristics of the dark ages is the loss of ideas, intellectual advancement, and thought. Its what happened when Rome was sacked by the Vandals.
