The cost of living in an inhumane world

The terrorist attack in Boston this week reminds us that inhumanity anywhere, is inhumanity everywhere.  Steadily increasing demand for natural resources and wealth concentration are resulting in an increasing number of human beings, who once enjoyed self sufficiency and a manageable existence, who are now desperately  fighting to survive if not losing hope completely.  We all bear the cost of desperation and injustice in the world but the more those who are able to help look away, the more desperate those with the least become.

Ongoing erosion of the rule of law and capitalistic exploitation of human rights abuses yield abundance for wrongdoers and offer increasing evidence to those who believe in the primacy of individual rights of the need to actively defend those rights for all people.  The alternative to a civilized society in which individual rights are protected and the rule of law is applied justly is a bifurcation of humanity separating those humans who enjoy individual rights and freedoms from those who don’t.

To be supportive of individual rights, we must acknowledge the fact that we live in an inhumane world with rampant injustices everywhere and the less humane we are to those most in need the more animalistic our world becomes.  Inhumanity and injustice threatens the notion of a civilized society, and just talking about it does not fulfill the moral obligation each of us has to do what we can to promote the concepts of liberty and justice for all.

Take action to end injustice in the world today and envision the possibility of mutual respect for individual differences and adoption of The Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

  1. I found your weblog web site on google and check a number of of your early posts. Proceed to maintain up the excellent operate. I simply further up your RSS feed to my MSN News Reader. Looking for ahead to studying extra from you later on!…

  2. Dude.. I am not substantially into studying, but somehow I obtained to experience lots of article content together with your internet web page. Its wonderful how attention-grabbing it seriously is for me to go to you pretty frequently.

  3. There are certainly a number of factors to take into consideration. Abusing human rights is more profitable and more prevalent than ever but its the apathy and the growing number of people who are willing to profit by someone else’s loss that are contributing most the growing inhumanity in the world. I offer the thoughts above as normal inspiration but clearly there are questions where the crucial factor will likely be treating others as we want to be treated. I don?t know if finest practices have emerged around issues like that, however I am certain that your feeling that we all share the cost of the inhumanity in the world is true– whether we are willing to admit it to ourselves is another matter. Young people, especially, really feel the impact of just a moment’s connection with a caring adult which can stay with them, for the remainder of their lives.
