RE: The Unthinkable: A Collage for LMAC #142

in Let's Make a Collage2 years ago (edited)

Excellent post you share on this topic and accompanied by a nice collage of images, also very creative. Nuclear weapons have always made me question the intelligence of the human being, as it is the only species in the world that creates something to destroy itself, while other life forms seek the opposite, in short, they seek to survive and maintain the perpetuation of their species. The devastating effects of these weapons seem to come from hell itself, I also find it absurd that current politicians are more inclined to push the red button than to eliminate these types of bombs. I hope that the current tension does not reach the use of this type of weapons, but unfortunately it is still one of the tools of deterrence used by some countries to avoid being attacked and to intimidate others. I liked your post @agmoore, these issues always give a lot to think about. regards!

A powerful thought. Very sad and sobering.

I think of religious traditions: every one I think of deals with forces of good and evil. It's a tacit recognition of the conflict at the core of human nature. It's recognition that we can and do destroy, not only others but ourselves.

You work with the other side of nature, the part that tries to see the relationship and cooperation between all life forms. Besides the fact that I learn a great deal from your blogs, this is the best reason to read them. They always make be feel better for being part of the scheme of life.

Thank you very much for reading and for your comment.
