Mr Long Goh's writing

10/15/2008

Long Goh’s writings

Mr. Tzen Long Goh’s writing is really some thinking in some sort of depth. What kind of depth I don’t know. First of all in answer to his first sentence, "Man dose not need to be selfish." No this is not possible, because man is a human being, not a robot. It is in human nature to be selfish and greedy. Just look at all our elected officials in city, county, state, and federal governments. All these people are selfish and greedy, and power hungry. Now these changes Mr. Goh is writing about all sound like science fiction or better still from books by H.G. Wells.He suggests a new language...what kind, babble ? Part English part Spanish, German...changer words to mean something different from what they are? What does he mean when he says social norms? Our Society and social norms have already been changed from where people were considerate to one another to the way it is now. Little or no consideration for any one but themselves. Our standard of living has been going down for decades. Life is very cheap now. What caused this, the new thinking in education, our news media, television and movies making gangs look like poor misguided children who’s parents don’t have anything to do with their growing up? The movies and television in some cases make the bad guy the hero. Magazines they have the same thing. Few or no morals. Men and women murder their own children and have no regrets about what they have done. There is a religion in this world that it is alright to murder you own children, they are called "honor killings". People are not perfect and they will never be. Few people are not selfish, most people think of themselves first last and
What Mr. Goh is suggesting is selective breeding of the human being. Hitler tried it during WWII, it didn’t work. Now if genetic breeding is to make every one super intelligent, super strong, super talented, all the same is called Communism. Every one the same. Or all clones. Another problem comes up, who is going to select the people who are going to be genetic changed to fit into Society? The Federal Government, Mr. Goh, the collages, by a lottery. May be Big business. Ford Motors, G.M. may be the Heinz Co. What Mr. Goh for gets is, man is corrupt and man will always work for his own and disregard the rest. There is nothing perfect in this world. Governments, Religions, Mass Media, you name it have tried to make people perfect and it never worked out. What Mr. Goh and his pie in the sky teachers forget is to stop tampering with Natural selection. God’s way or if you want Nature’s way. Mr Goh and teachers and people like him are dangerous to freedom and humaity, because some day they grow up and become Liberal Congressmen and Senators and there are nuts and bolts out there that will say ,"hay that’s not a bad idea. I could have a kid who will be the greatest football player in the world.Then if the idea catches on who will benefit from genetic Cloning, the super rich, rich, or who.

Mr. Goh’s article sounds good, but in reality would not work because the same people he writes about who are "selfish..." will be the same people running the program. There will never be a perfect Society as long as man is running things.
