Question

What is the greatest injustice in the world?

Answer 1

those who give up on themselfs

Answer 2

Harming children.

Answer 3

WAR it affects to many poor & innocent people

Answer 4

I think the greatest injustice is HATE! People can let others effect them so negatively, that there is something on the inside that triggers that rage and anger.  In those moments people say things they regret and do things  they normally would not do, all because they have something on the inside that makes them want to be in control.  Once hate is released amongst two people it is hard to erase, forgive and forget, what has been done.  

On the flip side, part of understanding someone's hate is to understand love.  Once you know what stems them both, you have more power to choose what gives you the most enjoyment in life.

Answer 5

I will sum up all of these people's answers in one:

The greatest injustice is the flawed architecture of our egocentric mind.

That is to say, man is the measure of all things, and of himself. Therefore, one measures himself in relation to another.

A rich man is so in relation to the poor man. A strong man is so in relation to the weak man. And the best consolation available to any man is the ability to reflect upon those in a plight far worse than his own.

The phenomena of life must exploit itself to continue.

This applies anywhere from Wall Street to the Safari. A lion must kill just as man must exploit his own kind. In the former case, it is survival, in the latter case, it is propelled by unfettered greed and insatiable ambition as a means of alleviating the boredom of life.

Life is an injustice unto itself.  The design is a flaw.

Answer 9

coming into existence WITHOUT knowing why and how all "existence" came to exist.this is a universal injustice

Answer 10

hmmm injustice ...forcing slaves to work until they die and then using their bodies as morter to hold the bricks together. (the great wall of china). That ranks pritty high. Really slave labor in general has poked it's ugly head in so many places and not only of people but of animals too. Making other people work for you with the threat of death and violence seems to be a strong injustice.

I also think the slow decline of English rule over the world is an injustice as no body else in the world should have power over themsevles. The English know how to rule a country. Every place that ever jousted the english out has gone to c**p ... America, India, South Africa. If people knew what was good for them they would simply have their bloody tea and cookies and like it.

I think Europe uniting under one coin was a terrible injustice as many people can no longer afford to buy homes in their own country because the cost of living has risen so dramatically. Come English ... come to america and please leave the new generation behind as they seem as terrible at leadership as the rest of the world. 55 and up only :)

The daily rape of thousands of people and of the earth is a terrible injustice as well that ranks up in my top 5 as it destroys millions of lives: peoples, animals, plants, air, water, soil.

The fact that there are no more good leaders is an injustice and a tragedy. With population sizes growing and growing the chains that control and guide them are breaking. There aren't enough intelligent and powerful leaders left to keep the birthing mob underwraps. I'm afraid for the future of the world unless we can find a good way to kill off most of the worlds population without destroying the planet itself. "looking forward to the next global natural disaster of 2012 late december. It's going to be beautiful anarchy and chaos."

Answer 11

That the Ten Commandments are not enforced............

This is perfect law and would remedy and discourage bad behavior.

Peace Be Still

Answer 12

Slavery, denying another the right to choose.

Answer 13

I think that the greatest unjustice is taking opportunity away from man or woman. Like we do to the kids that are forced to become guerilla soldiers, or the slaves that work the diamond mines, or all other injustices we have made cause i think opportunity is all we have in this world to do whatever but poverty, and war take that away from us and forces us to do what we would otherwise hate.

This is too broad of a question to give a correct answer.  No one can ever know for sure due to the fact their has been so many that have been undocumented.

Answer 21

The way our kids behave and treat their parents AND their peers. What is this world coming to? As a parent, do not make a mistake, because if you're children know, they will use it against you, even if things are different and have been for years. Knowledge is power, and they want power over the parents these days so that they can get their way much easier by throwing it in your face.
