> i was feeling pretty decent today (not Good but much better than i usually do i think), and at one point i even had a thought run through my head that was something like, "yeah, the world sucks, but i should try to live with it and improve it as best i can." Then just like an hour later i was watching the News and i saw the story about this highschool girl "powderpuff" (whatever that means) football team in Chicago, and how the senior girls were "hazing" (as they said) the junior girls. They showed clips of it on the news (i guess someone videotaped it). The senior girls were basically beating the **** out of the junior girls: punching em, kicking em, dumping paint on them, smearing dirt on their faces, and (according to the news, "some people said they were..") smearing animal feces on their faces and forcing them to eat animal parts. They showed footage of all this. The girls were just crying for help; lying in the grass; helpless. Then it showed some f***ing girl (presumably one of the seniors), afterward, and she said something like "I don't see what the big deal is. It's not like anyone died or anything." SPOILED EVIL LITTLE B*TCH!!!! It was f***ing sick. i'm serious, it was SO freakin disturbing to me. And it made me depressed as s**t. Highschool girls. The evil; the cruelty. It just blows my mind. i wish all those involved could be put in prison for life, or better yet, just ... .
> Seriously though, people. It just makes me see how bad the world is getting again. The cruelty, the callousness, the lack of empathy or compassion or love. And it kills the love for humans inside me, too. i mean how can i love people like this? i'm just filled with hatred toward them. OH i just wanna freakin... Ah and those girls who did that crap will probably just get off easy and continue to live their selfish lives, wounding those in their way; indifferent to the pain of others. Makes me sick. Makes me sick. Sick to my wretched heart.
> Is this the next generation? Yes, it is, isn't it? This is an example of the callous indifference and selfishness of so many people in my generation. When this generation gets older, and they are controlling things, and the next generation of young people (their kids) are growing up, and all the older people of the present are mostly all dead... it's REALLY going to be a sad, sick society. It is, isn't it? It's only going to get worse. No matter what. The rampant egotism, selfishness, arrogance, cruelty, and lack of courtesy compassion kindness and love-- it's only going to grow and grow, isn't it? This is the world i have to look forward to. This is the world i am fighting for. This is the world that children are growing up in! Sickening. Yes, i hate this world.
> This kind of crap just gives me such a deep hatred of people-- not all of them, but in general. i detest our species. the worst curse of the earth. Yes, people like those girls-- they make me hate this world. They make me lose almost all hope in humanity. Is this the future of our society, and of our world? If so, it seems hopeless. Does it not? Ah, i am sickened. The world is going to be utterly terrible in the next generation. As if it wasn't bad enough already. Yes, the world goes in cycles of progression and regression. But i don't want anymore regression. i'm sick of all the pain and cruelty. There's been far too much, far too frequently, for far too long. But i'm afraid the world is only going to get terribly worse.
> Please tell me i'm wrong. Please tell me there is hope.


I definitely think there's hope. This post should probably go on the faith board because I believe that sometime, possibly in our lifetime, a Saviour will save us from this wretched world if we choose to accept the gift.

What I see is a world that has become colder to each other in general. Fortunately, there are, and always will be, genuinely kind, caring people out there. They just seem to be getting fewer and farther between.

I'm not in the best mood right now, so if I had answered this question on a different day, I might not have sounded as gloomy as probably do.
