RE: [kj] First amongt equalsSometimes all the free-time is taken-up by the
basic stuff like finding food, so some
people just don't have time to think of anything beyond the daily sh!t.

  The fact that some societies have decided that living in mud huts (or
caves etc) isn't what they want does not necessarily denote progression,
rather it shows a different set of priorities . . .

  To suggest that a society in Africa (or wherever) is less advanced because
they haven't decided to live by your ideals smacks of the Victorian
missionary ethos ("they're not Christian and therefore need pulling into the
19th century whether they want it or not")

  Who decides what is advanced and what is the best way to live?

  Once again Alex avoids the issue by labelling it: A wind-up,stupid,
immature
  or  resorts to a personal slur.Whilst I know that he doesnt address the
  points because he knows Im right and has no answer with a valid logical
  reply.
        A thousand years ago ,living in mud huts was common the world
  over,some people have progressed out of them and some havent.
      Call it what you like,But you cant disagree with the facts.
