Is Your Brain Truly Ready for TV, Porn, or the Internet?

This is just an accidental filter for our species. I mean, look at Japan. It has decreasing amounts of young people wanting to procreate or socially interact.<p>The people who can handle junk food, tv, porn, and the internet, will carry on. Maybe some will go crazy or become dysfunctional, but let&#x27;s look at the other side of this either or grouping.<p>The people who can&#x27;t handle these vices will more than the average, die from unhealthy foods, become depressed or kill themselves due to bad habits&#x2F;addictions with porn&#x2F;internet&#x2F;media.<p>Eventually, more people who can handle these adaptations will be born than those who can&#x27;t. It may be a hard pill to swallow, but that&#x27;s how I see it.<p>Of course, we all may not be capable of a certain severity of these stimuli, so the truth may be more cynical.<p>My hope is that we change directions. But I think we have to ask ourselves whether we deserve to exist as a species. We certainly have our faults, and one could say we&#x27;ve crafted our own end if you choose to believe that&#x27;s where we&#x27;re heading.
