Forum Title

"The true woman will not be exponent of another, or allow another to be such for her. She will be her own individual self... Stand or fall by her own individual wisdom and strength... She will proclaim the `glad tidings of good news' to all women, that woman equally with man was made for her own individual happiness, to develop... every talent given to her by God, in the great work of life."-Susan B. Anthony

The world is in so much caos where the abuse to women, children and the mother earth has over passed the limitsto sustain our civilization. Life for many are unberableand many do not have even the understanding that maybe pushing a little more life can make it end more dignifyinly. That actually in many cases could finish a life that is not life in the first place. So, then what is "permited" the usage of drugs that can make us diminish our anguish . Intersting would be what is the corelation to consumption and human misery. Can this be stopped? Maybe butnot by any stupid law that forbites the only way still people can use to bear this painful existence.By not giving any real solutions to humanity, would probably end in a massive suicides from many of the users.The question will be how can we value our humanity and what we could do to preserve the real life by giving to ourselves a good reason to exist.More and more women are understanding that we can finish with human kind if we decide to no have anymore children in a world who does not value human life.If we do that politician will not have anyone to rule , if not more children exist, who will renue the old and sick? and continue the specie. We are powerful and we have always have been and nobody should tell us otherwise. Weshould not wait to have the power be handle to us , we should just take it.
