In a world of blind people, the person with only one eye is king.
In order to understand some of the things I'm about to talk about you should know about the two people who this really referes to

(Removed by request)

and

(removed by request)

This all has too do with 9/11 and how it has effected people. But it also has to do with other things politics, ethics and phlosiphy.

Politics, In the world of politics seperated away from everything else both sides of this dispute. (the fundamentalist muslams, and the United states) The muslams see their way of life being trampled on, and they see the United states as the cause of this effect. The US requires the resources in the area that the muslams clam as theirs. Now since it is always easier to obtain something from someone who is like you, the US atemps to "Climatise' the people they deal with. Who is right? That is for history to decide.

Ethics, Is it Ethical to kill people so that you give your way of life a chance to contue that way of life. The US needs that oil to contue there way of life. The feel ethicaly that to survive they are allowed to interfear with the people the control the oil and put people incharge of the oil that they can control. The muslams feel in in order to insure survival of their way of life that it is justifible to sacfrice some of their own people to kill alot of their enemies.

Phlosiphy, their are currently two schools of thought when it comes to this issue: 1 people should be able to recongise that they are all in this together, and we should lay dow our arms and work together. The pro's? if it where possible it would mean we could pool the talent of all peoples and it would be a golden age of man. Cons? It makes the assumption that mankind does not need to compete, and will not have to compete again., which is fine if you wish to risk being conqured.

2. We must fight to perserve our preceved path to perfection. Pro's: it's been proven in history that we imporve ourselves through compition, without modern warfare we would not have he microwave. Con's it means that some must die so others can live.

Now for me personaly I do as I have always done. I look to nature to see the answers:
1. Man is apart of nature, and cannot currently seperate himself from his biology.
2. In nature EVERYTHING competes with everything. Even the dear kills the grass inorder to survive, the grass will eventualy evolve to survive the deer, and the deer will either evolve or die.
3. Man has no current lifeform capable to compete with him. So where does he turn to compete? he must turn to man. He must compete agenst man to make man evolve.

During spet 11 we saw heros die on both sides to prove their respective points. Was it a good thing? No. Will it happen again? how can it not? Man is not a enlighted being, It simply is. My generation will build the fiture weither it will be built on the paths of old or try a new one.
Some might ask, how am I so calm knowing what I know?

I look to my peers, the ones who I referenced. Two friends, two very different views, they have fought over this, things got personal and harsh, both said things that they regeted later. Now they are trying to mend the fences. I'm finding my generation dosn't hold a grudge as much, they can change., we are evolving past our programing. We arnt there yet, we will still fight, and make mistakes but we will learn from them, we will adapt. We will find a way to compete and evolve as a species together.

To these two I hope you please will hear my words, hear what I say now: Without risk, without putting our hearts and minds on the line, without being out there...on the edge then you cannot grow. Do not let this dissigeement, and the barbs attached seperate you. Your visions of eachother have changed, you are new, Can the new Ren and the new Wolfdom learn to get along and respect eat other? I hope so, because I know the old Ren and old Wolfdom would have liked that. I would also like to say I am here and will listen to you whenever you need me.

OK all rant over. Sorry to drive you nuts.
