Are we becoming that uncivilized?
Were humans ever "civilized" ?
I think the majority are not.
In various mythologies the gods destroyed humans except for a few good ones.
I mention mythology because the human race has been mostly bad for thousands of years.
Take the Romans for example.
The Roman games seem like shooter videos in a way.
In my opinion shooter games & other games with lots of blood & guts appeal to mentally ill people.
I have seen some awful deaths in my time.
I'm an old Hippie too.
I never did like violence.
I do like Tomb Raider.

Lara Croft is nice in my opinion.
You can run her into a wall full speed & she says "oomph".
I think her appeal is more sexual than her committing violent acts.
And it is a difficult game to complete.
Unless you use cheat codes.
I think also that the amount of time & money spent on "sports" in society contributes to a competitive Violent nature.
Most schools might have a football & baseball field but not enough money to have a good computer or science class.
This situation disgusts me.
Another historical note--- The playing fields of Eaton prepared the "Lost Generation" for WW1 & trench warfare.
Organized "sports" make me sick.
They are a breeding ground for competition rather than cooperation, in my opinion.
I would rather see young people in school working on computers or raising a vegetable garden than playing with various kinds of balls.
I'm through ranting now.
Peace & Love to all.:thumb:
