Regardless of our differences, can't we all just live together peacefully as human beings?

Or we could just live together peacefully as flamingos.
That would be WAY more fun.

HERMITISM
The awesomeness of the human brain is irrelevant in countering how shitty the world we live in is. If hell exists it's here on Earth. Now you can have an optimistic view on the world, which is awesome because internally you have a good attitude concerning the suffering around you. However, the rest of the humanity is suffering.
We have momentarily pleasures. And sometimes we have these small glimpses into happiness. But the majority of people in the world are suffering. Even if you personally have this great prospective on the world, that's not reality.
I mean even those that are fortunate, to leave in a peaceful country, or the rich. Still have relationship problems, depression, disease, fears...and if you're not the problem then it's your relationships. Your spouse cheating on you, your new born baby with medical handicaps....and so on and so forth.
Oh we do a damn good job attempting to distract ourselves from this truth. Drinking, drugs, smoking, sex, video games, love...whatever. We do a lot to escape the reality of how shitty the world is.
Since before religion man has believed in God/gods. And hundreds of years after we die man will continue to do the same.
