<p>Well we know a whole lot more about human nature now than our ancestors did. But as I said, it isn't without risk, you cannot cover all the basses, and when you try that's when you enter into utalitarianism. Fear and the use of fear as a political tool is where Fascism and utalitarianism come into it and that's what's happening now.</p>

<p>I have my own ideas on how a comunity can work, but the one thing that I don't want to do is to try and sell my own personal views of how a soceity should be run because that would be tantamount to fascism.</p>
<p>We've seen social experiments where a small group of people live as a Saxon comunity, they lived as a family and they survived. Lets keep it simple. What I'm saying is lets form small comunities who support eachother, not selfish indeviduals who are only interested in there own survival and personal gain.</p>
<p>All we can do is try, if it fails then it fails, but we tried to live better lives without greed and that's what counts.</p>
<p>By the way the communist ideal failed because it was corrupt. you can have all the riches you want in your house, but if you don't allow your walls to be built with strong meterial, then it will fall. Greed and utalitarianism destroyed comunism.</p> I agree with these points, bu…tag:saviorsofearth.ning.com,2011-01-14:2492330:Comment:3228732011-01-14T00:49:46.127Zdarkwolfhttps://saviorsofearth.ning.com/profile/darkwolf
<p>I agree with these points, but if you want to build a community/society on utilitarianism and respect for the enviroment you will have to remove the necessity of need and expantion, for example as a community gorws so does it need for food,water and shelter,for this you need to have or aquire the resorces for these, this bring in the outside elements that might or might not be disruptive to the balance.

A prime example of this was the Communist ideal which crumbled in the former Soivet Unoin (which was based on the Marcsist Ideal of utilitarianism where greed and over population brought it down thourgh lack of resorces amongst other factors).</p>
<p>If you look at the way our ancesters lived there was a some mutal repect but there was a lot of brutality with inter Clan /Trible dissputes over things like resources.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>How do you remove basic driving forces like these?</p>

Our ancestors had the right idea, native americans had the right idea (and they were called savages by the settlers). If we live with mutual respect, respect for our environment and work to support each other rather than what we can get for ourselves, then humanity will survive and evolve. I believe that a disaster will happen, because the universe has had enough of the misbehaving children known as humans and we’ll be given a choice, live for each other or not at all.</div>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt;">This shift in power gives us the problem of how to will the perditors deal the people that they deem not to useful in the community which bring us back to the ones with the power control the ones without which got us here in the first place.</p> Wow, I did not know that.

I think some spring cleaning of the old widely (or wildly) accepted assumptions are called for. Somehow I'm not in the least surprised that Disney would go to those lengths though</span>
