1533 Societal Collapse Simple To Fix
from PRay TeLL, Dr. Hash Hosted by Martin Hash
Societal Collapse is the most important issue confronting us: the simple solution is to condition children against resentment, narcissism & greed, and discourage perversity from a young age. Teach children to recognize, resist & rise above their base motives, like religious teachings used to do; Jesus had a lot to say about being humble and thinking about others. There were a lot of role-models at church, and many examples of people helping one another. Those prescriptions didn’t come from nowhere; wise people recognized the need for them and created a framework for their transfer to subsequent generations via commandments and other morals. What makes returning to the morals of the past not easy is that it conflicts with the distaste towards indoctrination, no matter how benign. Like hypnotism, people don’t want to think they can be or have been brainwashed, some vehemently so. The fact that everyone is a product of propaganda, at least to some extent, by their culture, customs & traditions, should logically alleviate their anxiety about it, but it doesn’t. Another aspect of moral imperatives is that and they are typically a burden on personal autonomy which is near-adjacent to liberty, and some people are cautious & suspicious of any threat to it.
