[quote=MISHEN                  ,9613]The more things change, the more they stay the same - if you think about it, the changes you talk about are different expressions of the same thing.The red guard standing with red books in hand, cheering for Chairman Mao with their hands waving in the air... the Christians standing with their bible, praising God, hands waving in the air... I went to an AMWAY meeting in Shanghai not long ago, where the prospective clients were being excited by the marketing speaker, holding their product guides, hands waving in the air chanting 'An Li Hao!'Almost all social activities of all kinds break down to simple forces. People need to be together, and one of the side effects of happiness shared within a group is excitement, which often leads to fanaticism. Getting excited about earning money is almost the same as getting excited about believing in God - they're both about a blind hope for the future. None of it ever makes you satisfied - it's not supposed to work that way. DESIRE is a MOTOR, to make a human being do something, it never promises satisfaction, and if you get what you want, you'll find something else to desire.[/quote]
