In the "old days" criminals were treated, punished or executed (murdered) in the Public Square as an example to other would be criminals. The Romans hung bodies on poles or crosses to rot in the sun and be eaten by ravens and vultures. I'm sure these public displays had some effect on society. However, we STILL have the same elements running amuck to this day. Murder is one way. Another way is physical castration. But is more violence going to stop the violence it is designed to stop? When is a murderer not a murderer? Another proactive method is stop supporting those that encourage and support anti-social behaviors: Hollywood, media, lawyers, etc. Society didn't get this way over night and probably cannot be fixed over night. Actually, there are many people working on possible and appropriate solutions. First the issue must be understood. People (and I use that term lightly) commit "crimes", as pointed out by LadyM, for all kinds of rationalized or unconscious reasons. In the end all violent actions are seen as the result of a choice. Which is to say there is thought followed by action. Probably more often than not these violent action provoking thoughts are unconscious, emotional, reactionary and may be termed "insanity" or some such excuse or label for non-volitional and irrational choices. So to clear up violence the originating thought (conscious or not) must be modified. This is the reverse of those conditions and manipulations that created the violence prone thoughts and actions in the first place. As LadyM points out these are effects of media, Hollywood, sexed-up advertising and all the rest. In general sex and associated violent murders are actions of the beast-people (both male and female) or beast-mentality. Therefore we must come to some understanding of this beast-mentality often called body-mind or animal-mind as opposed to divine-mind, spiritually enlightened, etc. Distilling all the above down (and a whole lot more) these two general personality groups can be simply stated as 1) those that Love self and others and 2) those that hate self and others. The issue then is What is Love? What is hate? Both are mental constructs or belief systems. Change the belief system and subsequent behaviors change accordingly. It is not for naught or by some unfounded belief that religions were created and have expanded around the globe. Some people desired positive changes in their lives and some portions of some religions aided them in changing their beliefs and hence their life experiences from one of confusion, chaos and violence to more stable and peaceful personal and social exchanges. Religions, at their core, are belief systems and nothing more. What is becoming more and more clear to some of us working with sacred or spiritual science is these mental constructs (belief systems) can be induced artificially. Individuals can be made more peaceful and loving or more violent. Some refer to the negative side of this technology as "mind control" and other labels. But how about the positive changes? Can people really be made more loving and peaceful? The answer is an emphatic YES! The technology exists, albeit in primitive form and efficiency, to bring an unstable personality into stability, personal peace and socially acclimatized - without destruction of the base personality. The process is not infallible (yet) and some disturbed personalities are so ingrained in the negative there seems to be little if any effect even after months and years of exposure or treatment. In other words the negative personality to successfully tame the savage beast within must WANT to change. Change must be a free will choice. Such changes cannot be forced although I suspect that too is not beyond future capabilities. Forcing change on anyone, no matter how noble the rationalizations, incurs extreme karmic consequences. (Who among us loves their fellow man enough to incur such karmic debt?) Thus one would not go out and willy-nilly change peoples' belief systems to some other belief system. Who would decide what is to be the new belief system? |
