so i'm talking to a friend about the two most important current affair issues, global warming and terrorism, right now there's a huge debate about which is the bigger threat, it's a strange competitive question, and it's a strange culture of question asking where the question never gets questioned. I mean, what sort of culture would even ask a question like, what's the biggest threat, what's going to do the most damage, what's going to destroy us first. it's not tv dude, its not hollywood or some plot from sc fi, we are curious about the dangers these present, and seek an answer so that we can do what exactly....?

the answer is obvious to me, terrorism has always existed, its the product of destructive and unimaginative memes, it's the last resort, it's the final statement in hopelessness and human defeat over brainwashed ideals and malevenent desires. the human destruction to the enviroment is terrorism as well, it's just not so localised, and we are all guilty, you me and mobil, unless you're living in the rainforest self sufficient and living in harmony with nature, but you wouldn't be reading this would ya, if that was he case. no the danger is imminent, it's islamic fascism.
the planet is not doing anything it has not done before, its not behaving erratically, it's evolving to its enviroment, adapting itself, we forget human beings have only been around in the blink of an eye, since the earth formed, our time is but a fleeting moment, what arrogance to think we are the first and last civilization that the earth has shrugged away as it changes. islamic fundamentalism does however threaten the earth becuase in order to create an islamic planet one has to use force and that will inevitably take the form of nuclear or germ warfare. an enemy that has no fear of death, an enemy that wants to die for its cause is a formidable enemy. a planet that wants to shift and change is not an enemy at all. people don't get it, they sit and talk about the two threats but they forget, the magic word in all of this is...wait for it. INTENTION.
The earths intention is to sustain life. The suicide bombers intention is to take it.

Back in the middle east, it's not Israels intention to kill the arabs, but its the arabs intention to kill israelis. And if you doubt me... Ask why the UN who promised israel they would remove weapons from Hezbollah have not. They had no intention of engaging with them and in 1 years time when they start shooting rockets, it's game on again and we know who is going to be blamed.

Are you talking personally, or generally about the whole world? Although terrorism is more immediate, it only threatens a relative few (unless nukes get involved, of course) whereas global warming affects the entire earth. No contest, imo.

today an australian poll was released saying australians are more worried about global warming than terrorism. i'm in the minority although i do feel global warming is a threat to our species i don't see it as dangerous in quite the same way, in fact i really have no problem with global warming, i think it's just the earth making minor ajustments to itself, sure the fall out may be human adaptation, i mean we all have to adapt, i think what i was getting at in my post was the more bigger threat is terrorists, (with nukes or chemical weapons), it's the fact that the intention of the planet is not to eliminate humanity whereas the intention of terrorism, is to do max damage.

terrorism and climate change are the same thing.
assorted sectors of the ecology bursting beyond their parameters.
for both, the answer is nuclear.
