Sometimes, we as a society make and create standards that are meant to be for the good of everyone. Not always are these standards as good as the society believes it to be. Sometimes these standards do irrevocable harm to individuals or groups that can never be taken back. We as humans, as a society, need to do better. We can do better.

The Native Americans were nearly whipped off the map of the world because the society that decided to live here decided that they were too savage and not needed. It was believed by some that they were evil and should be destroyed. When others got to know them, they learned from them and came to find out that we ourselves who call ourselves civilized are the true savages for the irrevocable harm and destruction we caused these noble and humble people who lived at peace and in harmony with nature because we refused to get to know them and understand them better. We decided that our ways were better mostly because it was what we grew up with.

People had slaves in their homes doing jobs that could have been done easily by themselves or by paid workers. However, they didn't want to pay them for work that they could have done for free. No one at the time saw the evil in taking people from the homes that they had, away from families and villages that they knew and forcing them to work in impoverished conditions with no money and very little food at times, like animals. To tell the truth sometimes even the animals were treated better than the slaves were.

We as people have been condemning others and committing great acts of evil for centuries as we pronounce wars upon our enemies in the name of all the heavens and in the name of God, Goddess, and more. Always we blame the devil, the heavens, the earth and the stars for everyone else's trouble when truly it is our own fault for the evil done to others. I've heard people scream out aliens are trying to destroy the world so that they can take it over. I seriously doubt that. I can't say that I don't believe in aliens or intelligent life beyond our own, but really, I do not think that people from another planet want to destroy something like earth after coming so far to visit it. Bunch of bunk if you ask me.

If the earth were ever destroyed we would only have the so-called civilized human to blame.

The civilized human has yet to recognize that there are more than two sexes amongst the modern human. The modern human sees and recognizes the male and female genders, but will not recognize
