Cena you're an idiot. Watch 'And the band played on'. It's a movie about the rise of AIDS. Pretty depressing.

for whom who doesnt know it was the nuclear bomb launched by the americans at japan ( which hit 2 cities nagasaki and hiroshima) and after it japan surrendered and the WW 2 was ended ....

over 100000 death .... and until today no grass can grow on that area

yes or we could have killed 500,000 american G.I.s trying to take tokyo by force.

and when they were finally beaten we wouldn't have been nearly as sypmpathetic to them as we were and they woudn't be the world power they are today. think puerto rico.

it was a horrible mistreatment of them. But why does progress have to come to grinding halt.

"the industrial revolution bad"

well if you don't like the industrial revolution then get the f*ck of your computer and sell all your stuff donate the money, and go follow Thoreau, and the indians and stop using your modern convinces to bitch at the rest of us for having them.

if you looked up the word hypocrite in the dictionary you'd find the deffination which you are.

1 : a person who puts on a false appearance of virtue or religion
2 : a person who acts in contradiction to his or her stated beliefs or feelings
- hypocrite adjective

You could say that the Industrial Revolution was bad, mainly because it caused us to create unneccesary pollution which does affect our health. Even though I'm saying this I'm NOT an environmentalist or nature lover.

The question is though (and notice i didn't do the constant quotey thing), would we be better off having disentry, malaria, and wild animals trying to eat our sack cloth covered dangley bits ? Maybe a bit of warm weather was the better option

The industrial revolution was good for all of us in our personal lives, but i think we can all agree the unfair treatment of workers was a tragedy (something that JSMill spoke out against, and eventually labour laws were put into place, getting rid of the poor conditions)

ur just an asshole. i ride an bicycle around my house is solar powerd.
am i realy supposed to believe that. where do you live again.
the good ship lollipop by chance.

are you a vegan. cows produce shit. shit makes methane. methane destroys the ozone.
do you use the bathroom. do you flush the toilet. if you live where there is a muncipal swer system your comtaminating the water because the can never clean 100% of the crud out. if you use a septic system the excriment seeps into the ground. well idon't know about you but i think that is considered pollution.

you still use things like your computer that come from places that are coming from places that aren't so pro enviroment like say i dunno umm china.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Environment_of_China

go read that that is interesting. i couldn't find the ap article on china but that probably was ripped right from it

so unless you live in some insulated self sutaing little bubble i can't really belive you pollute absoltley zero.

Gotcha.

The pros and cons of life without the industrial revolution can only ever be conjecture, we will never know if we'd be better off as gun toting victorians. Maybe the Bronze age was more significant...and would the only difference be that the chinese would discover electricity first ?
