People Fight example essay topic

Society is based upon a set of rules created for all men and woman. It represents that all people of all race, religion, and ethnicity should be treated equal. The part about society is that not all people do accept the fact that everybody is the same. You wouldn't think that this has been going on for a very long time, but really, it has.

It started in the past, it still occurred in the century I know best, the twentieth century, and it is still occuring to this very present day. The nature of mankind is corrupt, it always has been and it always will be. I believe that this is what will happen because based on the evidence I have read, heard, and watched on television, the nature of mankind is bad. Mankind led a hard life, men and women worked long, hard hours out in the fields, just so that they would be able to survive.

People knew one way of doing things, and the thought of a different and easier way to do things was out of the question. So when it came to the discoveries of certain things, people were outraged. This goes back to the early 1600's when Galileo Galilei was inventing and discovering. He came up with an invention, the telescope, to see into the outer limits of the earth. He spent endless nights, and came up with the conclusion that the moon was actually made up of craters, mountains, and jagged surfaces. He announced to the public his discovery, and many people, including scientists, were out ragged.

Galileo was put on trial for wrongful thinking. People did not accept the fact that people were getting smarter, and the world was changing before their very eyes. Mankind is unreasonable, right before them ideas were being brought forward, and all they did was push them back down into the dirt. Pretty evil, the world was going to change anyway, it was not going to stay the same. It goes to show what mankind is also like. For example, if all of society is supposed to be equal, then why are nobles and the clergy only allowed to have important jobs, and the peasants forced to dig in the dirt for back breaking hours.

Kings and or Queens controlled what people were to be doing, if they had to pay taxes and who they had to pay. People did not agree with this type of system, the feudal system, and therefore, revolutions would take place. People knew long ago that all of mankind was not treated equal, so why didn't they change so that every one was? I don't know how to answer that, but I do know that if people were treated equal then society would probably not be the way it is today. People would have reasonable equality. It did start to improve a bit, peasants were getting a little bit more slack, but nothing really changed, people set themselves up for the idea that they were bad.

It goes to show how much people actually want change also. In the middle 1600's, Charles I was king. He needed money, so he went to the Parliament, and they made him sign the Petition of Right. This made it so he had limited power, but Charles I found a way around it and by 1642, the Parliament and him created a civil war. The people won the war, and the king went down, the country was taken over by a leader, Oliver Cromwell, who promised the people a better way of life, but this did not last for very long.

Cromwell had his own beliefs on how the country, (England), should be run, but this soon got demolished. People are horribly stupid, they gave up on a new way of doing things so easily, they don't even give it a chance, but it also goes to show that mankind is stupid for making society believe in things that aren't even true. The twentieth century was the decade that I know best about, to an extent. I know that people did some pretty stupid things that would make you understand why mankind is corrupt and stupid.

One for example is that mankind is always fighting. Mostly for religious beliefs, but there is also many other reasons why. People are going to war for unhealthy reasons. In 1939, Germany decided to invade Poland, England and France demanded that Germany take its troop out of Poland, and when Germany refused to do so, England and France declared war on Germany. This started World War II. Germany wanted certain pieces of land that did not belong to them, and after some time, Britain and France agreed to let Germany have a part of Czechoslovakia.

Germany said that this would be the last territorial demand in Europe. Unfortuanetly this pact was broken, and war continued on. The sad part about it was that thousands of innocent people were killed, and there was no reason for it. The impression that people are good is not true, they are relatively evil. There was no need for fighting, a rational decision could have been made, but all because of and individual named Adolf Hitler, the world was put in great term oil. Nature of man is not good, fighting for stupid reasons, that offends mankind's ability to think.

Over the years, in Zimbabwe, African Americans and Caucasian men and woman have been fighting over the land. In the early part of the century, Caucasians' came in and kicked the African Americans out of their country, but now the African American men and woman are kicking the Caucasians out of the land. The land probably was rightfully owned by the African Americans, but why can't everybody get along? Everybody is supposed to be equal, but yet, people are fighting. This doesn't make mankind good, if we weren't bad, then we wouldn't be fighting for stupid reasons.

It's the same with the Israeli Militia and Palestinians. These two groups are fighting over the religions that they both believe in. Cause of the two different religions, and all the fighting, the Israeli and Palestinians want to separate and create two different country's, but Israelis' want to keep the land that they are on, and Palestinians want the other piece of this land. Unfortunatly, Israel does not want to give this land up to them, and the two separate leaders will not meet to come up with negotiations, and meanwhile, the Israel and Palestinians are fighting.

Innocent people are being killed, all over the religions that both separate groups believe in. People are all made up of the same material, and yet, still fight because they think they are so different. Mankind is so corrupt that it is not even funny. People are being killed and yet nobody does something to stop this from occuring. Something needs to be done about it, serious negotiations must be made to stop the wars that are happening in our world, its the only thing that can be done, or else mankind will always and still be know as bad. Even to this very present day, people are fighting for some of the most horrible reasons known, and yet it is the same reason over and over again, religion.

At a school in Belfast, Northern Ireland, the first day back to school for the Roman Catholic Holy Cross Primary School. Girls had to walk through a Protestant neighborhood, but there was one side effect, the Protestant men and woman threw rocks, bricks, bottles, and anything else they could get their hands on. During the nights, rioters threw Molotov cocktails, (bombs), at the Northern Ireland's police force. The motive for the attack? Little Catholic girls had to walk through the neighbor hood to get to school. Pretty low, considering the fact that these are little children.

Mankind does not know what to do with itself, it almost seems like they want to be labeled bad, but what for, it isn't changing society any faster. People need to learn to cooperate and realize that everyone of us is equal. It hurts all of society when people fight, like on September 11, 2001, a day no one will ever forget. The World Trade Center in Manhattan, (New York City), and the Pentagon in Washington D.C., were attacked by aeroplanes, who had crashed into them, and bombed also. Hundreds of people lost their lives because of Afganistan's Palestinians, who are believed to have attacked the U.S.A... The U.S. has now declared war on Afganistan if they do not give up the main suspect, bin Ladin.

The whole world is involved with this unfortunate crime because there are so many countries that help out the military for both of these countries. Its that this is going to occur, but it still shows that mankind is stupid, and from all the evidence that we see every day, mankind is also very ignorant. Mankind is stupid for the things that they do, not thinking before they act. Every where you go, and every news clip or newspaper you read, there is somewhere in the world, people fighting for reasons that only they understand. To everybody else, it is just stupid, because the main reason that people fight, is over religion. Society gets a picture painted for them, this picture represents evil and stupidity.

No one has to make stupid decisions, if thought out first and for most, things will be prevented. If people would have been able to accept the fact that the world was changing four hundred years ago, then maybe society would not act the way they already do. Mankind now needs to fix the problems that have been started so that this picture will not become a portrait, but instead, wipe the slate clean.
