Why do so many people in the world seem to have no soul?

Question

This question occurred to me when I was watching System of a Down (soad) videos, Hypnotize, Aerials, Chop Suey, etc..

It can't simply be apathy that is allowing the world to go on like this can it?

Can people really be so in a void of reason or conscience

that apathy allows them to accept things like starvation (genocide) and war?

Please help me here.

All the arguments to prove human superiority cannot shatter this hard fact: in suffering, the animals are our equals. The animals of the world exist for their own reasons. They were not made for humans any more than black people were made for whites or women for men, weak for strongest, poor for wealthier…- Alice Walker, African-American writer & storyteller.

Answer 2

It's not apathy. It's selfishness. People don't want to give starving people their food. People want what other people have and start a war. People in general care about themselves more than anyone else. They'll stomp on anyone else if it gives them a little more. This is not always the case, but in general I think it is.

Answer 3

The reason is that most people will sell their soul in order to have nice things. People get ahead in life by being mean. They sell their souls for dolce and gabbana and plasma screen televisions.

Answer 4

System of a Down has no musical talent or substance, not worth considering.  You can't hear soul in a copycat band.  Go and listen to the Clash, the Who and the s*x Pistols.  Rage against the Machine/Lincoln Park copycats suck.

Answer 5

People who experience or watch terrible things (in person or on t.v.) gradually wear down their apathy and turn them into empty shells with no feelings towards others. This includes everyone from regular kids playing video games to child soldiers in a third world country. No apathy, no soul. It's not something you can grow back.

Answer 6

Mind controlled by the elitists using mass media and entertainment to keep people from thinking critically and caring about others.

Answer 9

And who might you be to tell the people of the world that they "have no soul?"
