Well, let's just ask a genius comedian about it: George Carlin:
Arrogance of mankind
I leave this video for you to watch, it has subtitles (not professional, but they can help).
If you want, you can translate the subtitles into English and compare them to what George Carlin says. You will realise that it is not exactly the same sometimes, but that's something common in subtitling. Anyways, they are helpful subtitles.
Hope you enjoy the video!
Leave your comments please :-)
Really funny! It has been a long time since I last watched one of his shows.

Hello!
ReplyDeleteIn my opinion, this video is a necessary point of view over our human condition today. I don't think that it represents the unique true, and surely, it's far from absolute reality, but give us a type of information that we usually don't receive in others medias.
It's obvious that we are eating our energetic resources very fast, like a sick society with bulimia nervosa, but it's veritable that we have a great science and technology to heal us too. Now, only we should cultivate ourselves, and for this fact we have the best tools: education and cultura. If we are able to use this tools conveniently, we'll have done the most difficult way.
In this type of discussion, also, we could rethink our life style, and surely, we could be more respectful with the planet, and so with ourselves. There is one thing very interesting in this video, and it's a thing that we think rarely. In the past all system have failed at least once, and when this happens, will be the people that least resources use who will face best the crisis.
I prefer to be optimist, and I believe that we able to get better in the next years.
