The ideal change the world may seem unrealistic and utopian. If we tell someone we want to change the world may think we are nutters, and we tilde disparagingly of "idealists", but what is not taken into account is that we know very well that we can not change the "whole" world, but we think it can change much of it with just the commitment of yours and mine. But ... Why change the world? The answer is found if we look a little news, listen to the radio or read the newspaper ...
live in a world ruled by the individualism that weighs the interests in need of the common good, a world where ignorance rules that he believes be happy is to get pleasure, a world in which poverty, marginalization and injustice are commonplace, a world that believes that pride, hate, power and revenge are values, a world where honest people honest is considered foolish, a world where hopelessness and lack of peace are universal frustration, a world where families are torn apart and homes are simply places to eat and sleep, a world completely remote controlled by the media and press, a world that believes that the image and aesthetics are more important than the people inside, a world where the consumption and trade includes the same man, a world which proclaims God believer but ignores; a world where the dignity of human life is conspicuous by its absence ...
Y. .. What needs to change? Indeed there are many things that need to be changed and some of them we hear constantly in political campaigns and speeches, but all that is summed up in something or rather "someone", "man." There is nothing new to know that the rulers of the world are human beings, therefore we are primarily responsible (when I say "responsible" I get first). By this we mean that the crisis is internal. The problem is man, rather, in his conscience. If we go to the merits we will see that all the problems are rooted in a moral crisis: poverty in the world is a result of the selfishness of man, the garbage in the city is produced by those who throw waste in public streets, the injustices are often the product of someone who bribes and one who receives the bribe, the drugs would not exist if there were someone who sells and buys another. So what is wrong with the world as a war macro or micro as the fight with the neighbor, turns out to be a moral issue ... Now we find the root of much of man's problems, we wonder ... How to solve the moral crisis facing humanity? Some think, with "education", and rightly so. But today the school system simply provides "knowledge" is not in values, gives content but does not teach how to reason, on the other hand, the family should be the first to sow values, is also in crisis. That's why young people and many adults, end up having a personality that responds to the simple result of a culture run by the mass media ... But is it safe? What risks are our values \u200b\u200bfound in the culture? What awaits a society that does? If we were, we would realize that cultures are constantly changing, so if our way of responding to "as are all in society will never have a strong moral. So we must seek to establish our values \u200b\u200band our conscience in a transcendent principle, with which we seek the truth, the only truth, which is immutable, which makes us free because it transcends culture. This principle is the reason.
seems that we are approaching the main reason for the moral crisis, ie ignorance. When we speak of ignorance, we do not mean the lack of "knowledge" such as learning a language or a country's capital, but rather we refer to the absence of the cognitive tools necessary to help ensure a critical eye and be able to perform reasoning incorrect. To reason correctly is the ability to be objective and subjective where appropriate, to put emotions aside when making a trial, to find widespread fallacies in the arguments of the world, to seek truth beyond our ideas, to differentiate the superficial fun of profound happiness, mark a horizon to our life, to find the ultimate meaning of existence, to evaluate our daily attitudes, beliefs grow and generate independent of social thought. In short, the thinking person we are talking about must be from your favorite verbs, "seek", "change", "grow", "believe" and "create" ...
think this is the explanation of the root of all problems and we know the solution, ie, "we must encourage the thinking man", but it is not so simple: because the human crisis of which we speak is very strong and is crowded by the media. The ignorance of man is so deep that it has formed what we call "motivational crisis." We turn to explain, to the intellectual crisis, people are no valid reasons why you do things, but as equally we breathe, everything ends in a plea, "the mood." This approach is not bad, if applicable, where appropriate, for example, if I want to eat ice cream and I want to choose chocolate instead of vanilla, it is entirely legitimate for the will direct my actions. But it would be if I choose this or that health or taste for a diet, because in this case there are reasons far more valuable than you earn. The subject of "win" is completely contaminated by ignorance and intellectual disability that makes finding no reason to act on things every day, and always end up acting just for the "win." The boy looks if you win, helping others because you feel sorry and wants to assist, steal and do drugs because you feel like it is corrupt because he wants to work to have a nicer car, etc.. In short, "the urge" to act when there is no reason in front of them, but in the social mediocrity reason, the will always come first. Therefore, How to become a thinking being a person who does not want to be? How to ripen to a person who has no desire to grow? How to change to someone who have no desire to change? How can anyone reason to not feel like it and no reason because he can not reason? This is the deepest crisis that emerges from the intellectual and does make things because people feel like, period.
This is the time reflection where we ask ourselves what do we do to change it? Can I do anything? How do we do?
