Man's Inhumanity to Man was a frequent theme of English Literature classes. Lord of the Flies was the story of a bunch of school kids who are stranded on an island and soon develop into a pack of animals where the mob decides who lives and dies. Animal Farm had a similar theme. The animals wanted Freedom.
When I started this list, I thought that it would attract a lot of good hearted souls who were interested in their spirituality. I hoped to read about and participate in many uplifting discussions about spiritual realization. Unfortunately, I guess most of the good souls are out doing good deeds. I was going through the archives and I did not find a single discussion where the members posted constructive ideas that led to a positive conclusion of any question, idea, etc. I did find a common theme. Someone had posted some kind of silly notion about Zen or Life or something else. Then the mob, often led by a Zen Monk were telling the spiritual pilgrim what a loser he was in the most degrading manner possible. Life imitates Art. ------------------------ Yahoo!
