What are humanity's problems today? Can you enumerate?

People, many people are careless about their world, they think of nothing but their own circle of life, their house, their family, their city, but not the rest of the world. Million are suffering, millions have lost their homes, thousands are in war. Are the rest of the human race being careless of these. Write your opinions. Are you one of them?
What are humanity%26#039;s problems today? Can you enumerate?
Haves - selfishness and greed


Have nots - food and shelter





Just those two answers should be simple for even a less than bright individual to figure out.
What are humanity%26#039;s problems today? Can you enumerate?
Humanities problems today are the same as the problems from the beginning of history. Nothing will ever change that.
Reply:We don%26#039;t take care of each other.....we close our eyes or blame the people who are having the problems.





Unless you walk in someones shoes you have no idea what their life is like.





It%26#039;s easy to caste blame and criticize.....but until we become each others brothers humanity will just sink lower and lower.
Reply:I don%26#039;t think it is selfish to worry about your own well being. It is important to remember to nourish yourself and keep healthy. However, if you have 6 cars and a friend needs to borrow one, but you refuse for no good reason...that is selfish.





I think it is important to help if you have the means to help. If you don%26#039;t, obviously you can%26#039;t.
Reply:The problem of humanity is too many to enumerate and too complex to discuss but I%26#039;d say the REAL problem is the humanity itself. All we can do to at least make this world a better place is do our part in preserving it and show people that we care. That at least, lessens the problem of humanity which in itself is the real problem anyway.





here%26#039;s a song lyrics for you... (how appropriate!)





spoken:


Think about the generations and to say we want to make it a better


world for our children and our children%26#039;s children. So that they know


it%26#039;s a better world for them; and think if they can make it a better


place.





There%26#039;s a place in your heart , And I know that it is love


And this place could be much, Brighter than tomorrow.


And if you really try, You%26#039;ll find there%26#039;s no need to cry


In this place you%26#039;ll feel, There%26#039;s no hurt or sorrow.


There are ways to get there


If you care enough for the living


Make a little space, make a better place.





Heal the world, Make it a better place


For you and for me and the entire human race


There are people dying


If you care enough for the living


Make a better place for You and for me.





If you want to know why, There%26#039;s a love that cannot lie


Love is strong, It only cares for joyful giving.


If we try we shall see, In this bliss we cannot feel


Fear or dread


We stop existing and start living


Then it feels that always


Love%26#039;s enough for us growing


Make a better world, make a better world.





And the dream we would conceived in


Will reveal a joyful face


And the world we once believed in


Will shine again in grace


Then why do we keep strangling life


Wound this earth, crucify it%26#039;s soul


Though it%26#039;s plain to see, this world is heavenly


Be God%26#039;s glow.





We could fly so high, Let our spirits never die


In my heart I feel, You are all my brothers


Create a world with no fear, Together we%26#039;ll cry happy tears


See the nations turn, Their swords into plowshares


We could really get there, If you cared enough for the living


Make a little space to make a better place.





There are people dying if you care enough for the living


Make a better place for you and for me.

Reply:Blatantly your school essay question.
Reply:Humanity%26#039;s problems today are the same they have always been. The problem is a spiritual one. As long as we, as individuals, believe we are all separate beings and that one%26#039;s pain has nothing to do with any other%26#039;s, we will stay in this relative state of selfish %26#039;me%26#039; %26#039;mine%26#039; and %26#039;I%26#039;.
Reply:first the problem we.because we we don%26#039;t understand each other that will be a big miss understand.paroxysmal in the world it going to happens between human being and the humanity.all off the man kinds the think them they are the best no one is best on this time just we have to wonder about all thing it happen around the Small world.I%26#039;m not going to answer your question right now but i will be in contact with you,there some people are benefiting from this thing what they are doing,big marked in the world.and if we look at ourselves we will know all the answer, how long we going to life, we will found just all a moment in this big life we don%26#039;t take nothing from all what we are doing, just we travel to the GOD even naked .so please don%26#039;t try to understand me by wrong way, no one care who will life or who will die,just people the talk a lot,
Reply:we are indeed as a nation a selfish people.


we want our comforts and condemn those who don%26#039;t have the means to keep up. this is a flaw in our world. we have lost compassion, in it%26#039;s true form, for others ignoring the homeless, and the people in poverty. as long as it isn%26#039;t us well let someone else take care of it. if we took the %26quot;me%26quot; word out of our vocabulary then we


could see the needs of other more clearly.


those in countries that are poor band together out of need and concern for others.


America has so much so easily obtained that we don%26#039;t find the need to help each other and become cold to others needs. On


the bright side we have had times in this country when we acted like we should. 911 for instance brought out the best in Americans yet it should be an everyday thing not just when a horror of that nature hits out people. am I one of them? I can say for the most part no. I am a human being that makes mistakes and like the rest


can be selfish at times but not like that. I love people and have compassion for those


who hurt and suffer. my belief in God has a


lot to do with this and serves me well.
Reply:about money money money....... problems like finacial social acts and about love...= )
Reply:Well, in my opinion,one of the best answers ever given to this question is to be found in George Garlin`s Paradox.





%26quot;The paradox of our time in history is that we have taller buildings but shorter tempers, wider freeways, but narrower viewpoints. We spend more,but have less; we buy more, but enjoy less. We have bigger houses and smaller families, more conveniences, but less time. We have more degrees


but less sense, more knowledge, but less judgment, more experts, yet more problems, more medicine, but less wellness.





We drink too much, smoke too much, spend too recklessly, laugh too little,drive too fast, get too angry, stay up too late, get up too tired, read too little, watch TV too much, and pray too seldom. We have multiplied our possessions, but reduced our values. We talk too much, love too seldom, and


hate too often.





We%26#039;ve learned how to make a living, but not a life. We%26#039;ve added years to life not life to years. We%26#039;ve been all the way to the moon and back, but have trouble crossing the street to meet a new neighbor. We conquered outer space but not inner space.





We%26#039;ve done larger things, but not better things. We%26#039;ve cleaned up the air, but polluted the soul. We%26#039;ve conquered the atom, but not our prejudice.





We write more, but learn less. We plan more, but accomplish less.





We%26#039;ve learned to rush, but not to wait. We build more computers to hold more information, to produce more copies than ever, but we communicate less and less.





These are the times of fast foods and slow digestion, big men and small character, steep profits and shallow relationships. These are the days of two incomes but more divorce, fancier houses, but broken homes.





These are days of quick trips, disposable diapers, throwaway morality, one night stands, overweight bodies, and pills that do everything from cheer, to quiet, to kill.





It is a time when there is much in the showroom window and nothing in the stockroom. A time when technology can bring this letter to you, and a time when you can choose either to share this insight, or to just hit delete.....%26quot;
