Everyone of those groups has members that are doing their part to screw up the world.

Overall, I would say that apathy and a lack of reason are screwing up the world, though.

People who think others who disagree with them are evil. And "Gangstas' who think that they'll never have to work, because they'll just be rapping or be professional sports stars, because those are really easy to get jobs. They're in for a rude awakening. And yes, i am saying this from experiance AKA 75% of my school.

One thing People, one word can describe the problem.

Intolerance.
Islamic Terrorists/Extremists, Christian Extremists, Communists, Homophobes, Racists and Nazis, etc.

that is not to say we should let them kill, maim and rape, but that is the problem.

one third of the problem is intolerant bastards, one third is apologisers for the intolerant and the other third is the remaining guys saying "Screw this, let's sort them out"

Iraq is a perfect example. Saddam Hussein ran a brutally oppressive regime that killed, abducted, raped, tortured the citizens in his own country for decades. Bush II invades saying "Screw this, it's time to sort them out properly', then other intolerants come in as an excuse to kill americans. Meanwhile, the apologisers are carrying on in the background and the U.N. is trying to hide the fact that members took money for looking the other way during the embargoes.

I disagree with Bush II on a whole heap of his policies, but the Iraqi and Afghanistan invasions at least have a reasonable cause and effect. It has replaced the Taliban with democracy for Afghanistan, and things are looking promising in Iraq due to the desparaion the etemists are going to to disrupt.
You can tell how sucessfill you are by how many people try to bring you down. If you are doing bad, no-one will bother.

Laziness. An innate resistance to effort. Those who are too lazy to search, think and understand are thusly confronted by things that they don't try to understand. They become afraid of what they don't understand, and even of the effort of understanding, because it opposes their belief system, and so they percieve it as a threat. This percieved threat elicits aggression, which is rationalised with hatred.

Loving and supporting someone requires energy. Pushing beyond a threshhold of tiredness to read your child a bedtime story is an act of love. Staying back to help a colleague after your shift is an act of love. Those small acts say more than any words can, because they are an active manifestation of your love for another person.

Disregarding the impulse to make these efforts is what is wrong with the world.

The fact that it either happened by chance -- in which case entropy will triumph and we're all screwed in the end -- or built by an all powerful deity, in which case we're living in a dictatorship, or built by several deities, in which case it was designed by committee, and we all know what /they/ are like. Whether you're religious or not, we lose.

Okay, I've thought about it some more. For the number two spot, I'd say it's pretty much a toss-up between bureaucracy and ultra-sloooowwww websites.

Extremeist groups in Congress. When Goldwater said the Republicans were too conservative, then something's really wrong. Can't it be like 1976 again? I hear that was the best year in American history. I mean ya had Bicentennial, lax drug laws, 18 drinking age, and no one watched the news. It was all about minding your own damned buisness, which Congress needs to do. We don't need a new law every day.

altruism, bad? :confused:

i say its selfishness thats wrong with the world (in addition to what i said before;))

The first man who, having enclosed a piece of ground, bethought himself of saying This is mine, and found people simple enough to believe him, was the real founder of civil society. From how many crimes, wars, and murders, from how many horrors and misfortunes might not any one have saved mankind, by pulling up the stakes, or filling up the ditch, and crying to his fellows: Beware of listening to this impostor; you are undone if you once forget that the fruits of the earth belong to us all, and the earth itself to nobody
