Society is the main evil in the world it is the core of it all. It is also the legs this world stand on.
I was antisocial in my recant years because I saw the corruption it causes in peoples life, but then it got a hold of me to. Don’t get me wrong its nice to have friends but the pain that goes along with it is worse than death in fact it can cause death. I have seen it. Things that are “acceptable” to society that are what causes a lot of problems that we some times don’t even see. Like for one we have parents that “take care” of there kids only because its not right just throw them away and put them up for adoption. That only hurts the kid because now you have a little girl who is ignored and will end up in some trailer with a drunken boyfriend because she grew up with out proper parents.
Then you have the people out there that really truly deserve respect and happiness in there life because of what they do. People like fire fighters and teachers just people that are far to underpaid and yet they are support beams of this country. Then you have extraordinary people that end up on the street because of some bad luck in there life or some bank or lawyer that ****ed up there life. Like this young man that turned a dieing church around on his own but his wife left him and such because she fell for some rich man and his lawyers sucked him dry when they divorced. And now you have a mother that is 50 years old but has 4 kids age 13 to 19 that she has to take care of. She dose this with two jobs and goes to school at night in order to become a nurse and yet still finds the time to help out with her kid’s life. She is some one works a miracle every day but gets nothing out of it. She is some one that deserves an award of some kind, but at the same time we have awards for people that already have it all like stares or businesses and people like that. This is because society has its own ways that have strayed form what is right and true to what appeals to the people.
But it is also what the world stand on society has brought us many things we still be hunting on a daily bases if it wasn’t for it, but now it has become corrupt and twisted with more evil then good in it.

Common criticism. I wasn't trying to be mean in those earlier posts archangel...it seems that everyone else found the same problems while reading your essay too.

American society is evil, or the world's society is evil? Or society in general? Because societies vary quite a bit, and you can't damn society in general just because of a few things.

And evil an extremely strong word. Is American society corrupt, yeah, I think that's a fair assessment, but it's not intended to bring down civilization.

quote:

Society doesn't really attach stigma to putting children up for adoption, nor for adopting children. And no, it's generally frowned upon to throw away children. However, if people were educated as to their choices with unwanted pregnancy, this could be less of a problem. And sometimes parents can't take care of their children because they don't know how to, or they don't think they have the time, or whatever. But then:

quote:
That only hurts the kid because now you have a little girl who is ignored and will end up in some trailer with a drunken boyfriend because she grew up with out proper parents.


Well, that's a little dramatic. Not all children who grow up in circumstances you described end up trash. Many realize how to better their life, and do so. Sure, some don't fair as well, but you can't necessarily pin that just to the fact that they didn't have a good homelife growing up.


quote:
Then you have the people out there that really truly deserve respect and happiness in there life because of what they do. People like fire fighters and teachers just people that are far to underpaid and yet they are support beams of this country.


So high pay is how we show respect? Not that I think teachers and firefighters, cops even, are paid enough, I agree that they should make more money, however I believe they are shown quite a bit of respect. Afterall, I've never heard anyone complain that their teacher/firefighter was ripping them off, yet you bet it's said about doctors and lawyers.

quote:
Then you have extraordinary people that end up on the street because of some bad luck in there life or some bank or lawyer that ****ed up there life.


Bad luck is not society's fault. It is just the mysterious ways of the world. And again, there's a million different reasons why people end up on the street, not just because of luck or a lawyer or a bank.

quote:

And now you have a mother that is 50 years old but has 4 kids age 13 to 19 that she has to take care of. She dose this with two jobs and goes to school at night in order to become a nurse and yet still finds the time to help out with her kid’s life. She is some one works a miracle every day but gets nothing out of it. She is some one that deserves an award of some kind, but at the same time we have awards for people that already have it all like stares or businesses and people like that.


Touching blurbs, really. (We get the point, your emphasis by writing 3 in a row doesn't make it any different)

quote:
This is because society has its own ways that have strayed form what is right and true to what appeals to the people.


So, society does what the people want? And the people make up the society. Therefore it's people you have a problem with, not society itself.

Anyway, I don't know why you wrote this essay, but it's got some major flaws in it, particularly grammatical (run-ons and such). Makes it difficult to read and understand. Try a little less drama, a little more defined structure.

Sorry to say, but none of that made much good sense to me. For example, you were saying that in having friends there are extremely bad consequences. Did I get that wrong? Hun, maybe you were decieved by friends but maybe you were the one with the problem. And I say I have to agree with confetti because all I hear in you "essay" is a bunch of BS and complaints.

Personally, I believe that nobody, with the exception of those who were born with physical/mental defects, should complain about how unfortunate they are. There are MANY opportunities here in the United States. I despise people who blame society for their problems. You, as an individual, have RESPONSIBILITES. To place blame upon others for the consequence of YOUR doings is not right.

Thats easy for you to say but lets say you were that mother. the last thing on your mind is virtue. You be more worried about the bills and little timmy bully problem. plus you be so stressed out that you'd look 10 years older than you really are. have you ever seen extream home make over? If not its a show that rebilds the life and home of a desurving family like the sigle mother family I used as an example. I am consider cold hearted by most and yet this show even makes me want to cry. virtue is fine but just not enough sometimes. a littel extra help form our society goes a long way.

Virtue is its own reward. Awards for worldy accomplishments belong in a different category. I find that you're a bit incoherent but then again, this isn't quite something that could be explained in a few sentences.

One more thing and i hope i dont come out all defensive, but these words are not just of my experance. It is also of my research of history and the opinions of others and your right there are a lot of amazing people out there but I was more concern about the ones that are not seen as that yet they are just that.
O and thanks for opinion as well its what i want good or bad.

I have seen the ups and downs of life. To be honest you have a good point but you missed the bottom line of my point as well. Society has always moved fowered even in times of war war has brought advancements ....(I dont think i spelled that right).... but it has now been like going off corse its more of what the "people" what rather then whats good for the people. Thats the evil of it.
hmm
Then again we must keep people happy but yea it could go both ways.

You're basing your views on personal experience which makes your stance on society extremely biased. Try to look at the bigger picture. There are some amazing people out there. Not everyone is evil. And you sound so pessimistic. Friendships don't just grow on trees. You have to work to make it a strong relationship so being a loner isn't helping you.
