OUR DISPOSABLE WORLD: UPDATED 2008 VIEW
OUR DISPOSABLE WORLD
Is our world disposable?
Have we arrived at the point that we
view each other as needless, pointless, &
worthy of "death," because of differences?
Disposable, to whom, by whom?
God's call is the final call, to that end
we are all inevitably disposable for a prearranged
appointment we must answer, no matter what we are doing
or where we are......."Death."
Death, finality, knows no age, size, gender, ethnicity,
nor religion, we were born with a price; and are disposable by
one final judge & arbitrator.
However, the question remains do we view disposing of each other, and destroying one another
acceptable behavior? Can we truly create a life? Why take one?
Everything seems disposable: paper plates, paper cups, plastic flatware.......
It seems as though most things are:"throw away things."
I still am left wandering whether man will ever get to the point that he views himself as disposable, rather than human;
just another "disposable thing."
I hope not!
But, somehow it is a given perhaps, if we keep our disposable way of thinking.
OUR DISPOSABLE WORLD RE-CRAFTED FROM THE ORIGINAL VERSION PRINTED IN 1987.
