WHAT IS THE WORLD COMING TO...

...is one of those things people say that drives me crazy. "That guy killed a dozen people. What is the world coming to?"

Have we forgotten the Crusades? The Holocaust?

All these kids today, on ecstasy, crystal meth, 98% of them have smoked pot by the 8th grade or whatever. Do the sixties ring any bells? Or the seventies, or eighties, for that matter?

The world is not "coming to" anything. The world is what it is, same as it ever was.
