Very true. Society is slowly breaking down in every way possible. It's really upsetting. The future is bleak. I'm young and I fear for myself- my family to be- my husband to be.

Intolerance needs to go.  It's the source of almost every world problem.

Different people have different ambitions and they are not always in sync with that of organization, hence all these problems. Basically people are plain stupid, simple.

There are two ways "society" trys to control its own behaviour in order to prevent utter chaos; The first is by imposing a legal code, or a set of laws that "everyone" has agreed are things you should be punished for doing, like killing other people or stealing stuff.  The other set of rules is the more arbitrary one of a "moral code".  It is within this second set of unenforced (and generally unenforceable) rules that definitions of what is and isn't cursing develop.  Regardless of what anyone tries to tell you, morality is entirely a cultural construct.  There is nothing but opinion that makes one word bad and another acceptable.  You can say "fudge you!" or "f*ck you!" will equal vehemence and mean exactly the same thing, but one will get you kicked out of WalMart.\n\nIt does not really make any sense, but if you want to get ahead in this world, the easiest way to do it is to go along with the morality of whatever society you happen by birth to be a part of.  These "rules" and acceptable behaviours serve as a model of behaviour that is supposed to make everyone less "uncomfortable", so you are right, "curse" words is a completely made-up notion.\n\nOn the subject of what is acceptable to some societies but not to others, you might enjoy this one VERY strange example:\n\nhttp://www.bellaonline.com/articles/art38424.asp\n\nTry putting THAT in a nativity scene in the US!

because we are an anti-social, throw away society. We don't value human life (abortions) and we communicate more through faceless machines like self checkouts and computers and phones. People are disposable, therefore not worth our time or effort. And any person exhibiting an ouce of morality, kindness or common sense is looked on as having an ulterior motive because heaven forbid someone should actually just be treating someone with common decency. Many ppl would just as soon sue for your last buck than to help you across the street.

our society values money too much.\nwe care more about $20 then an hour of good care for our children.\nperson A is a better person, but he needs to care about himself as well as others.

my personal opinion is that society's biggest issue today is judging other people.  between religious beliefs and patriotism, etc., people are always putting other people down for something they think is wrong.  and it's not always so simple as making someone feel bad...it starts wars....look at all the terrorism happening today.  if everyone was just accepting of all races, religions, sexualities, etc., the world would be so much better.

It's because society is sometimes very selfish and inconsiderate of their neighbors. People should learn how to respond to others with respect and fairness.

In a nutshell, Liberals have made everything in society a subject of controversy, so that you can't find a common consensus about anything anymore.  That makes society impossible to function.\n\nLiberals are destroying the fabric of society.  If you pull at it in every direction, it will unravel.\n\nChildren should be given Civics classes. The problem with our whiny, self-indulgent society is that no one realizes the responsibilities of democracy that go hand in hand with their rights.\n\nToo many people have a very warped view of how ultra important their "rights" are, completely oblivious to the fact that a society cannot function if everyone makes a huge fuss out of every silly, inconsequential thing that doesn't suit their particular preferences (hear that, ACLU??).\n\nWhen everyone can be deprived of seeing a beautiful, traditional Nativity scene because of one ignorant complainer, society loses. These people confuse freedom of religion with freedom FROM religion (exposure to religious symbols, which could only offend the most self-indulgent, self-important whiners).\n\nSo, civics classes can teach people to be more responsible and less selfish. It can bring interest to their history class, so they will understand the meaning behind the events they are memorizing for the test.
