Wake up, foks. It's 2025 AD, not 1025, not 0225 (when the Christian scriptures were written by the emerging Catholic church). Hell, it's not 2025 BC either.
As the world gets smarter and better, the world's population is regressing to its worst instincts--the Fear of the Other.
------
One would think that as the world is getting smaller by the second and that there is more friendly economic activity throughout the international community that the Fear of the Other would have dissipated by now. But no-just the opposite has occurred! Today, no one trusts an "other"--(others are foreign for god sakes--why should you trust a foreigner/other with anything?)
It the older days leaders used to talk in the following manner:
The idea of abolishing war through the establishment of a world government is an idea that long-proceeded John F. Kennedy, who raised the issue in his Peace Speach at American University in 1963. In centuries before, figures like Dante Alighieri, William Penn, Jacques Rousseau, Immanuel Kant, Jeremy Bentham, Alfred Lord Tennyson, Victor Hugo—even Ulysses S. Grant. The long historic background of the idea is charted in Strobe Talbott’s 2008 book, The Great Experiment: The Story of Ancient Empires, Modern States, and the Quest for a Global Nation. Talbott pegs his account on Plutarch’s report that one of the indictments of Socrates, for which he chose to drink the hemlock, was his declaration that he was not an Athenian or a Greek, but a “citizen of the world.”
Albert Einstein declared: “The world’s present system of sovereign nations can lead only to barbarism, war, and inhumanity. There is no salvation for civilization, or even humanity, other than the creation of a world government.”
Winston Churchill said that “unless some effective world super-government can be set up and brought quickly into action, the prospects for peace and human progress are dark and doubtful.”

But today, nation after nation around the global is turning over the reins of government to "other haters"--splitting the world apart rather than pulling it together.

Come on folks, wake up! It's 2025 not 1025!
The fear of the other is nothing but the fear of oneself--the fear that you cannot compete with the other. Come on, folks, we are not living in caves anymore. Every nation has it within its capability to take care of its people without causing turmoil because of fearful "other attitudes".
"Japs" are no longer "Japs", but people from Japan.
"Spics" are no longer "spics", but people from Italy.
"Gooks" are no longer "gooks", but people from Vietnam.
Get the fucking picture, people! It's 2025, folks, not 1944, or 1969.
--------
The Mother Mary was not a Virgin. It's 2025, not 0225. Jesus was a Man, not the single solitary Son of God. Come on, folks, it's 2025, not 0225. Old Catholic myths are no longer relevant or useful. In fact, they are more harmful than useful! Shame on the Catholic and Evangelical Churches for claiming myths to be true in a world that does not live successfully on myths.
------
It's time the world makes a new New Year's Resolution.
World Peace implemented through Globanomics.
It's time to wake up World! It's 2025, not 1025! And it is surely not 2025 BC! And that means that things should be moving forward positively today, not backwards!
