If you could shape society and/or the world, what would your contribution be? On what platform would your influence or impression come from? What would your message be?
If...
Hm, ignoring details the message would be: "It's 2015, when are we going to learn that it's completely retarded to kill your own brothers and sisters?"
I'd like to see more old fashioned values - like honesty and respect; a world where people are as good as their words; where people aren't so into themselves; less ridiculous litigation.
Don't know what platform could be used, though.

I'd retro technology back to mid-1980's levels.
I'm not sure that all of this technology at our disposal nowadays is more harmful than helpful.
Get your face out of that F'ing iPhone!!!

Bring corporal punishment back into schools...
At least into the homes.
Kids have no respect these days.

We all shape our society.
That's why we go to university or learn trades etc?
Even if you wait tables you have the chance to make an impact on peoples life.
my message: —I'm in the persuasion business. And frankly I'm disappointed by your presentation.??
collectively yes. i guess i meant as an individual that had the ability to impact all of society...

What would yours be Creepy?
you'd think that me asking means i have an answer... lol i really don't.
if i had to come up with something right now...
learning to grow some of your own food and learning to cook it (spending more time communally at the dinner table) could be a major key to things like better agriculture, better care for the environment and better nutrition. it could also make a huge impact on the food industry which seems to do whatever it wants regardless of health impact. it could be a significant chain reaction just by doing stuff people used to do a long time ago, but with all the information and resources that we have today.
what platform? yeesh... probably a book. a lil person like me could manage that much. a book with an attention grabbing title like "how i transformed my body and health by getting a little dirty." lol or "how you can change the world by getting fit" i dunno.
"save money, get fit, change the world and get your ass in the kitchen" ?? LOL
Okay grandpas, keep thinking technology is harmful as you fade away into history and the future generations become galactic gods. Oh make sure not to take the immortality pill coming in a few decades, don't need you polluting the minds of future generations, kthnx.

I also think we should be focusing on the future generations. This world is going to hell in a handbag and these kids have no values or respect. They all have their faces shoved in to some sort of device.. I find these days parenting is taken a lot less seriously than it was in previous generations. It seems people reproduce to create a new friend for themselves rather than concentrating on raising an intelligent and respectable child. These are lives that will one day be all we have left to sustain our planet and none of them will even know how to spell. A lot more concentration should be put into education. The school systems today are a fkn JOKE! Also I think a big focus for everyone should be learning to live in harmony with our environment. Too many species going extinct and our Natural Resources.. Well give it a few generations and we'll all be saying "What Natural Resources?"
A huge concern of mine is our wildlife, we are taking over their homes then complaining about the increase of such wildlife in our home towns. We are hunting all of their food and destroying what solitary forest lands they have left.. then turn around and start exterminating species because they are a "problem" when a lot of these species are not even native to our lands. We brought them here selfishly to rid of other wildlife that were causing us problems and now we want to wipe them out as well. SMH..
I am not a religious person really, but everyone believes in something.. Well the plants and animals were the only thing any of us know FOR SURE were here before us.. So they should be worshiped and treated with a much greater respect. End rant! LOL
love it! totally agree about the wildlife... climate change is also putting them on the move to areas they aren't normally. and the earth just hit the 30 yr mark of consistent ave temp increase. no denying global warming by way of technical definition now.

that and our things just aren't built to last like they used to be. aren't there dial phones from decades ago that could be used or are still in use? I feel the same can hardly be said of a 5 yr old iPhone.
and i think the apple watch was partly developed on the premise that it'll get our faces out of our phones, and rather onto our watches. so fear not... they've made another device to keep our attention off our devices. -_-
Repair the broken mess known as the modern family?
Education reform so that the country that has the nerve to charge the most for education, actually gives everyone's their money's worth?
So much...I suppose accountability would be on the key principles I'd want to get across to society/humanity as a whole.

agreed... i think a lot of our way of life now is fashioned for the individual. many of us are living in I-land and when you're that self serving, you're less reliable.

This is simply because we are currently in the information age, so we're evolving in terms of intelligence and capability. It's not an "evil" of technology, it's just the way things go. We'll evolve spiritually and ethically too, we're already starting to see signs of it. But one thing at a time.

Ladies and gentlemen of the jury:
I present exhibit A.
This young man's iPhone has told him he will soon be a galactic god.
Not sure about this "immortality pill" thing, but Apple can keep that too. I won't be taking it.
CapTenn, they'll force you to take it and make you live to a ungodly 666 yeasrs old.

taking the pill will be part of some upgrade you manage to avoid until you realize you need it to file taxes.

Kids are so much smarter today than we ever were, we're making them grow up faster and use them to generate money as if they are cattle and we expect them to respect us, when we all know respect is earned.
The baby boomers of today are flying a plane that they don't know how to land and quite frankly they don't give a fuck if it crashes and the future of our childrens childrens children are burned, all they care about is their retirement fund, travelling in RVs and controlling their kids lives as a way of living vicariously through them.
I would like to create a strain of super plant that takes over the world and puts us below the food chain. humans thrive under pressure and I'm afraid we're getting too complacent.

Kids today are costing us a shit ton of money, while generating very little..........
Baby Boomer pilots don't care if they crash their plane ..... Really?
I WISH the Boomers were/had controlled their kids lives, we'd be better off, and maybe they'd be independent and leave their parents homes before age 30.
Living vicariously through millenials ..... bwahaha. What a boring life! But, the Boomers would kick ass at XBOX.
The Boomers have certainly screwed up society, and the economy in many, many way, but none of which you have listed here.
I'm Gen-X and I'm looking forward to my retirement and traveling around in an RV.

I love how this is an example of how different we think.....
I'm not talking about kids living under their parents roof.....I'm talking about the governments and corporations that the Babyboomers run that are milking the the younger generations of today...
In babyboomer time they didn't have to pay for her education, they didn't have to pay half as much for car registration...Now days everything is so expensive for kids, they're going to be in debt paying off college for the rest of their lives and to get a car or to even get a fucking house because the babyboomers got them first and now they want to jack up the prices to the millions for houses that used to cost not even half that.
Not only that the music of today is targeting kids and the babyboomer music moguls don't give a fuck about the messages they send to kids they only care about shitty music artists that m
