[QUOTE="Brother Onam, post: 180032, member: 18170"] Sat Sri Akaal, I think I figured out what's happening here: I'm insane. The only sense I can make of this is, either all of you all are deluded or I'm insane. And the mathematical probability suggests overwhelmingly that I must be the crazy one. I've seen lunatics on the street talking complete nonsense, which to them is perfectly reasonable, or writing gibberish on papers that in their minds makes some kind of sense. And I think this must be what's going on here. To my mind, when I study the ways of this world, I believe I'm witnessing a slow and enexorable motion of heedless self-destruction. I believe somehow humans have allowed themselves to be governed by a kind of madness that allows us to systematically destroy the very forces of life and engage on a path of suicidal behaviour. In my mind, I think I'm seeing people emptying the oceans of life with devasting long-line and driftnet fishing; pollute the oceans so badly that there are islands of plastic the size of large countries churning in 'dead-zones' in our precious oceans; the 'sand' on some of our beaches is 1/4 particulate plastic, factories blast toxic fumes unrelentingly into the precious environment; the very last stands of virgin rainforest are being razed from Indonesia to Brazil. West Africa, once 100% forested is now down to about 1% rainforest, and that remaining percent is being swiftly destroyed for cheap lumber; the life-giving breeze has become deadly, the life-giving sun is our enemy, the life-giving waters are fouled to the point of bringing death and disease; multinational corporations are stripping every last resource from the earth in quest of profits, at the expense of tribal peoples, ancient farm communities, turning everything they touch into waste. Finally, and much too late, scientists are starting to sound the alarms of imminent and total self-destruction, even announcing we are at or past the 'tipping-point', at which point the damage can no longer be reversed. And we speak of who is namdhari and who is keshdhari or nihang, or whether McDonalds is providing good jobs and is, on the whole, no worse than anybody else... People, these things won't matter when we can no longer breathe, and viruses and cancers have put our children in the grave and humans will have turned this planet into a chewed-up, polluted moonscape. But, as I said, I'm feeling now like I am indeed insane. So I apologize for subjecting my fellow Sikhs to all this ranting. I genuinely feel I am totally nuts. If this is so clear to me and really invisible to (almost) everyone else, I am truly insane. Waheguru [/QUOTE]
