[i] The average age of the world's great civilizations has been two hundred years. These nations have progressed through the following sequence: from bondage to spiritual faith, from spiritual faith to great courage, from courage to liberty, from liberty to abundance, from abundance to selfishness, from selfishness to complacency from complacency to apathy, from apathy to dependency, from dependency back to bondage."
--Lord Alexander Tyler on the fall of the Athenian republic [/i]
Histrically, as recorded in teh Bible and OTHER history books, civilizations that collapsed have all gone thru HEDONISTIC periods shortly before their collapse. Ancient Greece, Rome, even earlier Mesopotamian civilizations have all proved this trend true.
By "hedonistic periods" I mean those charachterized by selfishness of doing whatever one wants, and the complacency and apathy for right and wrong, particularly in teh sexual arena.
So by all means, have a good time at these types of orgies. It will be short- lived. All you have to surrender is your national liberty. It ain't my words - see above.
