Hating Society

[Beautiful sky]

I like my society for the most part. As a culture it is accepting and at the battlefront in dealing with key note health issues like HIV, public concerns like Syphilis and anything else that comes up. On one hand I love seeing people of all walks of life and preferences walk around and on another I think we are being more accepting and I don’t think I can live in a bigoted environment so this is home although people here can be nicer to one another.

I don't know if I hate it, but I feel like we've all been dragged into something we didn't consent to, and I have quite a hard time adapting and adjusting to it. As soon as possible, I'm moving out into the woods to work towards being as self-sufficient as possible. I don't like urban life, how self-important people are, thinking they've got somewhere important to go, the cultural starvation, consumerism, lack of dignity and spirituality of our times, selfishness, shallowness, irrelevance etc...

What did you type yourself again?
There’s lots of spirituality in the city. The churches, the way people are concerned for the welfare of others. It’s not perfect but it’s headed the right way. We are improving and learning.

Modern Western society is perhaps the most immoral civilization to ever exist, so I much prefer to keep my distance from the masses in whatever way I can. Generally, I'm too self-centered to accept myself as just being a small part of anything, so a Dantean role of the (self-)isolated prophet casting judgment on the world he lives in is attractive.

Total opposite of me. I want to be among people just get tired of interacting. @Sol how do you type Dauphine?

Not in Sweden. There's the political lobby organisation known as Church of Sweden, there's the Pentecostals and then there's the Catholic Church. All of them are very small here, and none of them appeal to me. This country is in spiritual starvation.

Oh I’m sorry to hear that.

Is that really so? Over here in Holland (a country that culturally has a lot in common with the Nordic countries) the number of people visiting churches are declining rapidly, but it does not mean people are getting less spiritual. It only means they are no longer members of a formally organized religion, but they do believe in something. In Dutch we call this 'ietsisme´, freely translated that means they believe in 'something-ism'. Like many other aspects of life, religion iand spirituality ncreasingly are becoming something highly individualistic.

A lot of people over here believe that Holland is becoming less religious as well (which is also a matter of wishful thinking), but sociological research shows this is not the case. Only the numbers of members of churches are in rapid decline.
