What's America's biggest fear? Terrorists? Nuclear warfare? Escaped animals from the zoo?
No, no, and no. Sorry you didn't get that one, as the answer is in fact DIVERSITY. Not so much as for the rest of the world, but as for people in this very nation. I'm tired of people thinking that anyone that isn't a Roman Catholic Republican is a piece of shit. I use this example, because these people seem to be leading the nation at this moment, unfortunately. America is supposed to be about freedom. Yet all we do is expose everyone's differences, exploit, and alienate anyone who isn't like us.
And as for the part about "the rest of the world." You cannot just worry about your own back yard. When you consider an issue, you have to think about it globally. You can't just think about what is in YOUR best interests. You have to consider what is in EVERYONE'S best interests. But, with political parties formed, we've succeeded in dividing the nation on every issue, and only about half of the nation can be pleased at once. And don't kid yourself, the second that freaky ass religious beliefs that restrain free thinking go away, so will all the idiots, and the majority of this planet's problems.
If humans actually NEED religion to function, then I quit. Life.
