We have a broken society. I am often reminded of the A.I. movie by Steven Spielberg, which I think can be aptly viewed as a reflection of our society in general. Kids and animals can be cast aside so easily by so many.
I hope that one day all living creatures will be treated with respect, but I'm sure I won't see that in my lifetime. |
I think you said it better than I could
. It's the way we view things that need to change. Until we do that we won't see better treatment of the defenseless. I don't think I'll see it in my lifetime either
