LP 'Minutes after the disaster', they had no idea of the scale of the disaster, nor did the rest of the world. As for being ignorant I suspect, subject to correction from any of you, that I am the only person posting here that has spent a considerable amount of time in Sri Lanka, not as a tourist, but working, first when I was in the Royal Navy based at Trincomalee on the east coast and years later as a businessman working in Colombo in connection with the railways. And, by the way, your assumption that Sri Lanka is a Muslim country is incorrect. Certainly there are Muslims there as there are in most countries but a very high proportion of the population have other religions, including a lot of Christians. Moreover, I do not agree with those who started this thread by suggesting that the USA is dragging its feet on aid. I believe the USA is doing what has to be done as fast or even faster than the aid can be handled at the receiving end, which means 'fast enough'. |

Put 'religions, sri lanka' into google and within seconds you will learn that it is not a Muslim country at all as you seem to imagine.

Unfortunately, religion is not a force for good in most people's lives, though. It's a way of feeling smugly superior to all others ("you're going to Hell and I'm not, nyah nyah"), a way of justifying their prejudices, and a rationalization for cruelty & robbery. Whatever slight positive effect on morality religion might have is due to fear of punishment, which IMHO is not really anything to brag about.

Doug,
In order for your first point to succeed, you ahve to have your second point in place for development of conscience. When young children are being raised, it is necessary that there be consequences for actions...good and bad. Consequences can be equivocated to punishment at times if the infraction is grave. Fear of negative consequence is a healthy thing. It keeps us from becoming sociopathic. "DSK" wrote in message .. .

Doug, In order for your first point to succeed, you ahve to have your second point in place for development of conscience. I disagree. ... When young children are being raised, it is necessary that there be consequences for actions...good and bad. Agreed. But that can be reduced to simple behaviorism... mechanistically reinforcing children to act in ways that are "good." This is not the same thing as having (and following) a rational moral & ethical code. ... Consequences can be equivocated to punishment at times if the infraction is grave. Fear of negative consequence is a healthy thing. It keeps us from becoming sociopathic. The problem with this viewpoint is that it erases the difference between a sociopath who is restrained by fear of punishment, and a person who has no tendency towards sociopathy. This sort of thinking is like those cops who believe that there's no such thing as an honest citizen. Do you believe this is right & good?!? I find it hard to believe that you do... DSK |

people=institutions Yep. Any time more than two people get together, you have politics. ... unfortunately, there are a lot of bad people that hide behind and even gain power in institutions. People don't discuss the good that institutions do, they only like to look at the bad that the people who hide within them commit... Because hiding behind istitutions is a good way of avoiding consequences... ties in rather neatly with earlier post... But to a large extent, it's human nature. DSK |
You're south and east of Alaska right?

All the EU, the smelly frogs, and the Germans are envious of the USA's ability. It hurts don't it.... there you are dancing like a whirling dervish... and nobody gives a damn! I'm quite sure the frogs and the germs are telling its citizens we are not doing enough. It's the French way. Nope... they hardly ever mention the USA. They are much like Americans and believe you are beneath their contempt. What's lame & trite is Canada's military. What do we need a military for?? Everybody else loves us and you guys can't find us on a map. How come everyone one on earth calls us the only Superpower? Since we are the superpower, every American is a superman, or woman. Get used to it. We are not bragging, it is just a fact. Superpower... relative..... Super Stupid?.... well, you're buying our cows again! The views of the low un-superpowers is of no concern to us. We will lead by example, please fall into the back of the line. If the EU, Russia and China attacked you...... we'd help out by giving all your soldiers a place to run and hide. No sir, it's a case of jeliousy, pure and simple. Sure it is..... all of the rest of us want to be as brainwashed as youse guys! CM |

As far as I can see, the world is not concentrating on US AID. Perhaps your TV stations are placing undue emphasis US aid???? The victims are waiting for US aid, No, they are not. They are waiting for drinking water and food. What is wrong with the aid from other countries? Where are the ships and planes from France and Germany? Where are the supply stations for Spains relief goods, They don't seem to of much help. Where are they and what are they doing? They are delivering aid. They are delivering much more than the US. You should complain to your TV stations for misleading you. Donal, please enlighten me? I think that your TV news is concentrating on US aid. Regards Donal -- Ole Thom |
