Add to basketIt seems as though in modern society people are becoming more and more idolatry, and caring less about the traditions of life. We see as our culture changes people drift with the tide and the past is something we can only reminisce about. When sports is recognized as an excused absence in school and a religious holiday is not, we can see a decline in the moral and ethical values that undermine our way of life. A deterioration of traditional institutions is seen. The purpose of this book is to identify and analyze parts of our past and contemporary culture while breaking down the monads that mold it together. Throughout this book, you will become more aware of your surroundings and the sophist explanations that you have been socialized to believe. You will see and realize how people feel the need to "fit in" and how they will go at all lengths to achieve this.
Formally, this book will serve as a contemporary conditional commentary to what we androgynously refer to as mankind s social conditions. These are comments on the social condition and on humankind. We will examine the deinstitutionalization and disenfranchising of our life traditions. Weather or not they will be left standing is yet to be determined.
It is vital that we understand that these institutions will either protect or infect the American nostalgia. It is determined that these malversions be exposed because of their indoctrinating detrimental effects to the same society which we inhibit and holds the next link in the chain to our future.
For you, the reader, I hope that this text will help you to uncover some of the taboos of these institutions so that you may live your life under the right conditions, the ones you choose as compared to those chosen for you. This is a society in which political correctness (PC) is just another way to sterilize our language.
It is these sociological institutions that represent the importance of our legacy, ideals and rights. Cherish who you are, believe in what you feel and never set astray, as it is you who is ultimately protects or infects these commonalities of everyday life. We are now left to the last resort, that being social abdication and reconstruction of the human condition.
We are now living in a world where less and less maters. Ideals and values have no background to them and sooner or later nothing will matter. Is this the world you want to live in?
One of false prophets?
One with a lack of a value system?
One with a lack of morals?
One surmised of social Darwinism?
This can only do one thing to our way of life and its not help it. The human condition has gone too long aspiring for progress. Now it seems as though we are becoming an end to ourselves.
Society is becoming more and more intolerable. It is moving towards modernism in which all the old values have been invented. The social machine s hegemony is that of a deplorable nature that insists of the feats of life. We are now stuck with our middle class materialism and there is almost no hope for a better future.
An idea of social consciousness must be established prior to heading off the disease that runs through the blood of the world. This book will serve as a basic introduction to human interaction with a social conscious.
