Biggest Problem facing the world today?

What would you say is the single biggest problem facing the world today?
War? Poverty? lack of education? what do u all think?

I believe all you suggested there, war, poverty, lack of education all in one way or another connect but I believe our human iggnorance is one the biggest problems contributing to all of those three it is one of the biggest problems we face ..

I've got a HUGE opinion on teh matter, write tomorrow, i'm tired tonight lol

I do as well that was just in short...

no replies i would say terrorism.. the things ppl do to eachother.. the only animal without any natural habitat is human beings.. we just adapt to the surroundings.. kick all the animals out and just take over.. I watched discovery the other day back to the topic.. im really frightened of this terrorism wave that is crossing the world today.. ppl blowing themselves up just to kill as many ppl as possible to please their god? holy crap.. im scared as hell.. although there has never been any terrorism attacks in sweden its still scary as hell... where is the world coming? wow messy post but hey u understand wut i mean i hope

Okay, Vicki, I promised a long time ago to reply, you convinced me lol.

To my mind, humanity's worst enemy's its own greedy. I believe that's the source of all evil, maybe I'm wrong... but let me explain my theory.
It's due to this blind sought after power that this vicious circle's started. You DO have a point Vicki, terrorism is terrible, but then again, I believe it's only a consequence of human's greedy. When searching for absolute power, men become depotists, from there on they can do anything... They get people who are hopeless or at least, feel that way and make them believe that by joining some religions, the traffic, terrorist groups, etc (whose only aim are to get more power and more money) they'll find salvation. Fact is, they aren't entirely to blame, because their values get lost in between all this mess and nothing much is salvagable anymore. Thus, they wind up losing all fear and ppl who have nothing to fear, have nothing to lose, so they'll literally go to the ends of the earth to accomplish their aims. So... the harmful circle of hate, greedy, power and fear's formed... Those like us who have ppl and things to lose, get scared and are slaves to the big mafia bosses, terrorists, preachers of war, etc... The latter who are VERY feaful and coward as they DO have sth to lose as well.... End up using the ones bellow them in the ladder as their weapons and shields. Lack of education, opportunities, etc, certainly contribute to it....
To sum up, I'd say this insatiable sought for power's the biggest problem facing the world.... Though in my humble opinion it isn't recent.... has always been this way, since our dear cavemen.

i say its a lack of compassion for eachother...which that influences war, poverty and everything else...if people had compassion for one and other bad things wouldnt happen as often...

Overpopulation

at this stage of the game I'd say it could well be the rise in terrorism or just the overall apathy toward hostile nations developing nuclear weaponery. while there are some who would argue that each nation should be free to develop any weaponey they choose I would remind you that if you were to apply for a gun permit and you are a criminal you'll get no such permission. If you see a child with matches you take them away..and If you see a nation built on hatred begin to develop the weapons needed to take action on that hate..you must not allow it.
