Earth Democracy
I sat back in my bed and had to take a few minutes to really think about what I just wrote. Invision a world that lived politically and mentally as a society by the idea of Earth Democracy. It feels almost impossible to create this world of "justice, sustainability, and peace" with war, pollution, racism, and what not going on in the world. It seems so simple to create this, but it takes an enormous amount of people to start this wave and lead a life such as this. It's almost like a eutopia that could globally seize over the world if approached right. You see it every day with people attempting to make a small effort here and there, but it feels as though it's not enough to really make a huge impact. The ten principles of earth democracy say it all. But then if you think of it a religious aspect, going back to Adam and Eve, we now have the option of free will. Free will to think, beleive, trust, act, say, whatever we want by nature (not necessarily by law). With that in mind, people will continue to be terrorists, people will continue to be prostitutes, people will continue to be the old women in their fur coats. If everyone lived by these principles then yes, we would obtain this peace and sustainability. But everyone won't. There will always be a huge exception in society that won't follow suit. I have to say that by reading this introduction, it made me think a lot about other species then just humans. That is where the animal activists come into play, and you seem to forget about that part. Animals are subjects of identity as well on this earth. You give a dog a name, an identity. Why not anything else? The small expert that I have read from the novel has definitly jolted my brain and made me take a better look at society.
