Martin Luther King on Technology

"When we look at modern man, we have to face the fact that modern man suffers from a kind of poverty of the spirit, which stands in glaring contrast with a scientific and technological abundance. We've learned to fly the air as birds, we've learned to swim the seas as fish, yet we haven't learned to walk the Earth as brothers and sisters."
This clip comes from the documentary "Berkeley in the Sixties" I have no more info about this speech. If you do, please post it.

@oddtreenow2 And how does that detract from what he said here? Was this plagiarized, where from?

To believe in christianity and read a bible and lay judgement against another needs to learn to read. I care less what a person does but I do know one thing for a man to lead 1,000,000 + people to march to washington for a good cause is a great achievement. The founders of this country werent saints but they are on our money. They led the era of slavery . Its not even a black or white issue. To beat , torture ,and enslave the social growth of any human being sounds like devilment in the bible

@erfbgu Even those villains who crashed the planes into the twin towers died standing up for what they believed. Believing something fanatically is not an automatic virtue, little man. I do not despise King cause he was black but because he was a lust-crazed adulterer who was not to be trusted around women. Anyway, I have been blessed with plenty of peace. May you find some enlightenment. God Bless...

@MetrazolElectricity However you want to say it. He died standing up for what he believed. You are dishonest in your assessment of men because again when your argument is put back on you you make excuses (Jefferson). I love this country. What makes you think it isn't mine as much as its yours? You are not a founding father and neither did you fight to be here. You were either born here or you immigrated here. I feel for you sir. Life's already short and you waste it hating. May peace find you.

@erfbgu He was shot cause he went down and stirred up some trouble. Trickery has to do with his personal life. A man who is immoral with his family cannot be an honest man. Listen, you do not need to actually sit down to know that black america is generally an angry lot stuck in the past. Since, it's clear you hate America, there's no point in discussing. And we will take our country back this year. And you ought to go back to your own country in Africa.

@MetrazolElectricity The man was gunned down for standing up for what he believed. Where's the trickery in that? Be honest your goal is aggrevation the verdicts already in with you. Your mind is made up. How many of "my brethren" have you actually sat down with that enables you to draw the conclusion that you have (you people?)? Don't you realize that you end up becoming the same thing you hate (woe is me poor white man)? The commies haven't completely conquered us yet...take your country back.

@erfbgu So what? Thomas Jefferson is known for his scholarship and intellectual vision. Whereas, MLK's claim to fame is his supposed high morality and he can't even hold on to that because of his deception and trickery. Sure, I think we should work together. I'm all for it. But I think the anti-white racism and the constant whining about the past that some of your brethren do makes me irritated and lose hope in you people. Lastly, I do not blindly follow a leader. Obama's anti-american.
