I don't know where or why or how Islamic fundamentalism, radicalism, or terrorism came from. or about many things some of you are saying. and part of me doesn't care...ok I do care just not much this second

mostly what I do care about is confronting the who, what, and why when someone is doing harm to another. the rest is just bickering details...isn't it? idk.

Things like education or evolution in particular are slow sure deaths for anything eventually. that is the nature of change. and can be nice to know it exists sometimes especially when one can believe one group is more apt to be adaptable and survive over another. But its also a whole lot of not doing much when it involves people who have no wish or no motivation to listen or change... and alot like giving up on the present or immediate future and the people that exist in that time. Its why i want little to nothing to do with the very fundamentalist culture and religion i grew up in. Its why I never became a social worker either. because its the same problem. or it makes me think of all the people who knew there was problems with my family...and my childhood and chose to do absolutely nothing and turn a blind eye. I guess a person can believe enough in it so they feel like something is being done. idk. but it doesn't do much for victims. and there is no justice in it either. and i know i generally don't care about justice, but its one thing to reject justice as a personal choice...and another for lots of other people.

maybe evolution is the only way for change. if so, i think that is very sad, but it shouldn't keep one from doing what they can to encourage constructive change either, right?
