is it bad of me that I find it hard to care too much?
obviously you are in a much better position to have a direct effect on that, but similarly I could have equally strong views on engineering, but I just can't bring myself to give a shit.

I didn't always care about that stuff.
There are other things I care about which are a bit more controversial.
I feel quite strongly that Religion has little place in modern society beyond being a quaint tradition.

but these are negatives.
I think the point of my thread was to illustrate quite how much time we all spend getting angry about stuff and not enough time defending things that are worth our time.

I support our government for instance and I'm astonished at how cynical people are about it.

I am as well
the government has a hard job to do, particularly now, and I think that the way it panned out with the coalition is probably the best we could've hoped for.

with regard to your religion comment: I was at a wedding on saturday and I couldn't agree with you more. I strongly object to being told that our actions are worthless without God's love.
