Wow.  These seem to be really defeatist attitudes.  So many of your answers 
are based on helplessness.  You seem to believe that we can't change the 
future, what we want doesn't matter, and it's all inevitable.  Your answers 
are short to the point that it seems you don't want to even try discussing 
these issues because we can't do anything about them.  Is that how you feel?  
Is it as all hopeless as that?  Do you think you have any control over future 
destiny?
