What kind of prick would do that?

Mmmh. I could see that. It also highlights how important it is to keep rational thinking close to the heart.

Out of context I'm just bluntly asking.
I despise myself, but I have no say to humanity as a whole, since that's the most gross generalization that one can make. We are all individuals, but we are often unable to distinguish those differences, hence the concept of humanity.

Well I am quite insane, but I do not have any delusions about the fact what I am. Suffice to say that my issues have nothing to do with any of the above. Furthermore, I don't usually want to think things in too large scale, since I have no say whatsoever, so why should I care either way?

The Na'vi are only hostile to the humans who have mistreated them.

I would MUCH rather be Na'vi than human, but I don't have anything specifically against humans in general.

Now that's where I could write literature to China, however I won't, my mind is pre-occupied with more taxing feelings.

I suppose people just find it easier to blame a race as a whole, rather than turn their anger against the obvious oppressors of what they believe in. People, as you said, need to use their brain to think, rather than the incorrect organ of the heart.

People will be forever lazy. What can we do to correct such inherant flaws?

Try. But what use is that when each attempt results in failure?
Better well leave them to their thick-headed ways..

We may at least relish the fact that we are not as oblivious to fictions and dreams as others.

Peace cannot be tought. It must be built as an empiracle foundation of society first. If that can be accomplished then the individuals that live within will forever be free.
