I think calling current period the New Dark Ages is too pessimistic. How about Global Clusterfuck?
Will New York Become the New Urumqi?

@littlefoxy For me, the other ones just don't make sense.
Been into Rogers & Hammerstein lately. Reminds me of the time when others still looked up to US as a model.

@littlefoxy Interesting that many go from Xtianity, Judaism to Buddhism, but have not heard of many other way round.
@littlefoxy Externalizing evil makes it possible to blame others for conflict and evil. Instead we should search within ourselves.
@littlefoxy are part of our makeup, which we must deal with ourselves.
@littlefoxy Appeals to me much more than the other options. Judaism, Xtianity, Islam externalize evil; Buddhism recognizes that our devils
@littlefoxy If humanity was not attached to its own existence it would be much happier. Attachment to life is desire, which is bad.
@littlefoxy This belief meshes very well with Chinese concept of change in the I-Ching (Book of Changes). Humans should not become attached.
Hmmm.... Is the Great Global Population Cleanup about to begin? Think we are on the brink of something...
China is so big that it can blow up in the west and have a growing world class city in the east at the same time. #china
Xinhua reports 129 killed in Urumqi disturbance. This is the outside vairable I have been talking about.

Is there a Chinese composer of classical music who can even remotely be compared to Aaron Copland?
Aaron Copland's work was pure genius. Captured the vibrancy of America at its peak in his music. Great!

@raykwong You end with a smaller, healthier population and the women are ready to make babies with the men left. Good cleanup.
@raykwong Plague and starvation are always good for getting rid of us old guys who made the mess. Fighting gets rid of the young guys.
@danzwithwolve Global human population needs a major pruning. That is what it all boils down to.
@raykwong I figured that out a few years ago. Not a damn thing China can do about it either. Except for a good old civil war...
@Morgan_03 FYI, the south is bankrupt too. Taking Mandarin lessons? I can teach you how to say "I want to keep the BBQ" in Mandarin.
Listening to Aaron Copland's "Fanfare for the Common Man". A true American classic composed when US was at its peak of influence. #music
@danzwithwolve Chinese not into constitutional crises. They do rebellions, wars, floods and droughts with a few million dead for starters..
@sagebrennan Seriously doubt that they talk to each other...
