Can’t We All Just Get Along?

Kids, in our last blog we pointed out to you the amazing  achievements of a small culture. The value of education, covering many centuries, has lead to these achievements by the Jewish people. These achievements have been available and made possible for all cultures, since we all came from the very  first two Homo sapiens to have children. 

It’s not to late for all cultures to put education and critical thinking as the highest priorities in the 21st century. All the educational resources are right there on the Internet.

Is it possible that all wars will be eliminated in the 21st century? Not likely. In the movie Avatar,* after we humans have depleted the Earth, humans move to the habitable moon Pandora in the year 2154, and then become engage in more fighting . As we get into  the 21st century, fighting is still about the haves and have-nots and economics … but with a more more obvious theological influence. Belief against belief … culture against culture.

The United Sates has been the melting pot experiment for over 250 years where people from all the world’s cultures live. Each immigrant has had to under go huge belief changes to become Americans. On the whole the experiment has worked. In America your achievements are more important than your origins. But, the United States, as the world’s super power, policemen and ultimate “have” nation, we are still hated.

But kids, I’m optimistic about the planet’s future. Grandpa has dubbed all the children of the world now under 20 years old as the “Enlightened Generation”.

Now fast forward to the year 2154 we find a columnist writing an article about our planet’s slowly being restored to it’s environmentally balanced health and beauty, he entitles the article, “Maybe we all can just get along!”

*(Kids I haven’t see Avatar  yet. Hopefully I haven’t made some erroneous comments about the movie.)
