MAY I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION:
There's nothing new under the sun
Although it's disturbing, it's already been done
We've polluted the airways
We've polluted your minds
We've given innocence away
Left decency far behind
We've abused the planet
Traded true love for lust
We've exhausted the gamet
Sold our diamonds for rust
Still we cry for our children
Beg for some kind of change
Denying what we've done
Trying hard to shift the blame
We've left scars on the landscape
We've left scars on our hearts
Still we say with a straight face
That none of it was our fault
So, when you turn on the T.V.
At the latest disaster
Remember what I'm saying
There's nothing new to come after
***
Can we change?

Can we change. Only with God's help can we change. Good job.
I hope we can change. But I don't think the damage is reversible. So sad.
This is sad but true, in my Christian theology class I read an essay in which the author said that we need to treat earth like it is our heaven.
