I believe that there is no God, only good and bad forces, and decisions. Wiser people tend to make better decisions. People who lack brain power make worse decisions. The world would be a better place if the people in it where just smarter.
Any thoughts? Posted by Corvus

Who says the Hittlor was smart? And who says he was cruel?
Who says the America was smart? And who says she was or is cruel? Might is always right. Look at the history. Whenever certaing nation or say a mob of people gathered enough power, they tried to strengthen themselves more. No good, no evil. Its lust. Of not recognising the truth that the humans live on this earth. If someone is curbed, he will certainly retaliate sooner or latter. If there would have been a sense that all are humans and therefore equal, then supposidely there would not have been battels. Beginning of all so called evils is the lust. Today's example is Iran's Nuclear program. I won't say on this issue, because I have'nt read much about this issue. Posted by Mirza

Yeah, that's kind of what I meant. Just....more equiliberated in in understanding other people and their religions and just over all more wise and experienced.

That is, if you consider Hitler to have been smart. But he wasn't, because he just wasn't wise, or familiar with the jews, and their way of life. He wasn't smart enough to realize that he was no different from them.

WHATT? always people uses so easy the rod SMART? Maybe you should be more clear saying that Hitler was smart tlking about how he could make people follow his ideas, but wa not smart, not even intelligent ofor many other areas, so you can not say he was SMART; what Red said has more sense, although he used too poorly the term. MAybe he should have said in the end ... if people in it where just more equilibrated in their intelligences in a higher level than the actual ones.

Noel you are right in saying that "might is always right" senses the retrogade thinking. Its just people with growing power thought and also thinking in these days too. And consequently they considered themselve right in all aspects irrespective of human values.

Hitler only exploited and pointed out the problems that already existed in germany. lack of food jobs and all that, it wasn't too hard to get people bitter and angry, and find a scapgoat (hope i spelt that right :D) Some people would say thats a brilliantly calculated move, i just think its tainted and cowardice.
Hitler was cruel his tactics were merciless (blitzkriege) there are those who think he's smart or not smart, a brilliant tactition, or charming and all that jazz, but the point is he was EVIL!! and in my opinion, totally useless. A good heart is better than all the brilliant minds in the world. Posted by Augustine Kim
