Mercnbeth,
[sarcasm]
I agree that the world will be a happier and better place when everybody on it subscribes to your bitter disaffection , cynicism, hopelessness, and feelings of helplessness about doing something, anything, to try to make it a better place for oneself and other people.
I agree that it is so much easier to go through life screwing up the world as much as possible, in the belief that the old adage "He who dies with the most toys wins" is true.[/sarcasm]

That's sarcasm? How weak?
Bitter? Quite the contrary, I've never been happier. I enjoy pointing out the hypocrisy of these movements. Hopeless? Not at all - the lack of attention and failure that was this event brings me great hope that more people are seeing through the bullshit - perhaps someday so will you. I am however very cynical and hope to continue to remain so. Otherwise I could end up like you - just doing something or believing something based upon the source, and worse - never considering or reading any source in opposition. But then I guess in doing so - you aren't cynical. Well - good for you!
Sorry I offended your messiah. Now that was sarcastic.
The "He who dies..." quote isn't my belief. I say - "He who dies with the most toys - still dies". It's a tie with everyone who didn't have as many toys with which to play. But I do enjoy all of mine, without guilt or concern for what people think.
I know in your case, its better to threaten minors with a good butt fucking to 'train' them - right? Oh, I forgot-you just do that - you don't agree with the method, but don't have the guts to challenge your 'boss'. Besides it reeks of "good intent", and that's all that is required for you to buy into the program.
