Beware of those who demand that justice and appeal to the society to swarm in mass against perpetrators

There are large numbers of people who do not want Government to exert his authority over ordinary citizens, rather they want to use what they call social justice to check the people and the fight against crime. However, in many respects, history shows us that this is a big mistake because the Justice of the crowd is quick and violent, often permanent and absolutely unforgivable of the persons who choose to call on a whim. In fact, Justice through the social crowd quite unjust as most events from the past have demonstrated.

If you doubt this, and you want to see these types of scenarios would play out in real time, it is easy to watch on internet forums, blogs and social networks as a group of people with a similar opinion will call the person who thinks a little different that. they will surely go attack that person orally, and abuse them. If the person who did not even get pummeled, other people jump on board and start saying stuff that is out of character for them, and the whole group gets riled up as a pack of wolves.

This is exactly what happens with street gangs and violent criminal behavior where groups of people do almost unthinkable. Things they would never do on their own, but once they get in a group they are somehow in a different mindset. The Salem witch trials were very interesting in that regard, together with the French revolution where they beheaded all leadership and royalties. These things happen all the time, on a smaller scale. It is how human behavior work, it's not a good thing, but it is reality.

If we want to live in a free society, with freedom of expression and free freedom, and if we are going to stand for the individual, and individual rights, we must stay away from the use of the society to enforce laws and behavior without some kind of buffer between. I'd say Beware of those who demand that justice and are willing to call on society to swarm against the individual, or someone who they are calling is an offender, because that is not always; real justice.

You see, as the founder of a think tank, that I am more and more descend into this line of thinking, and the concepts of social control over the masses to look. I do not approve of that because I look at how easily the masses are controlled by the media, and the winds of the current events, and things taken from part on social networks. We are in a dangerous new era and we must be very careful. This is a serious matter, and you only have to take a step back for a moment. I hope indeed will please consider all this and think on it.

How mythology has shaped society?

From the dawn of time, people from all countries have their own gods and myths invented. These legends are often passed from one generation to the next, until the invention of the written word. Once the written word was invented, it was much easier for people to keep track of their gods and the many heroes who went on quests, and mythology engaged in something much more interesting and personal for all societies. Gods who have their own personalities and agendas is gained, heroes went off on epic quests and from the mind of the authors, entire worlds were invented. Myth and legend had been linked to life back in the days of yore, and to this day, it's still a very important role in the society.

The days of the week are in fact named after the Norse gods, each of whom had a day dedicated to them, although there are not many people today who are aware of it. The creatures that modern society has come to love, such as dragons, werewolves, vampires, faeries and even all originated from several legends and myths. Mythology also plays a role in politics and even some of the spoken phrases that we use. Many video games and movies owe their back stories to beings or figures directly from the ancient texts.

Religion lead even of legends. People need to believe that there was somebody, some Almighty beings, which the world and everything in it. Therefore, the gods were born. Our modern all religions have very close resemblance to the gods invented by ancient cultures. Although it has evolved in the same way that all thoughts and dreams do, contain our all religions somewhat modern twists on the old mythology.

We even have our vehicles, some of our cities, planets, plants, animals and a few water bodies after mythological beings or gods. Pets are often named after mythological gods, and that trend has also started to influence how we call our children. Even some of our more common words such as "satire" are simply re-spell words from mythological texts. Some musicians mythological references in their lyrics or titles, and we still learn old religion in school. Although most people probably don't realize, is society actually very strongly influenced by the old society and the legends that have been created and passed on for thousands of years.
