The Unabomber: Is He Serious?

    There comes a time when everyone has something to say. The next step
would be to find someone to listen. If that doesn't work, I suppose you just
have to make them listen.

    The Unabomber's Manifesto was probably one of the most interesting and
thought provoking points of view that I have read in a while. It's just too bad
that every time he made a point that I could relate with, he would contradict
himself before I was finished with the paragraph. In my opinion, the entire
manifesto and every viewpoint expressed therein, was a strange mix of confusion,
fact and storytelling. Although written with an abundance of detail and many
strong convictions, I finished reading the selection without being able to see
the purpose behind it all and what he stood to gain. I'm sure that wasn't
exactly his intentions when he wrote it.

    I feel there is one thing the author deserves credit for right from the
start; his uncanny ability to set a pessimistic mood. From the minute you
glance at the introduction, he, assuming the author is male, begins to paint a
picture of destruction and demise of the world in which we live. What could
cause such a catastrophe? According to the author, it would have to be industry
and technology of all things. He was convinced that due to the industrial-
technological system in which we live, ultimately humans are going to be
subjected to world wide suffering and inevitably a total shut down of humanity.
