"The Aokigahara Forest is the most popular site for suicides in Japan. After the novel Kuroi Jukai was published, in which a young lover commits suicide in the forest, people started taking their own lives there at a rate of 50 to 100 deaths a year. The site holds so many bodies that the Yakuza pays homeless people to sneak into the forest and rob the corpses. The authorities sweep for bodies only on an annual basis, as the forest sits at the base of Mt. Fuji and is too dense to patrol more frequently."

"Godless society on earth" the notion that the proportion of Godliness should exist more so in one part of the world than the other. almost as if one was to run out of salt halfway through a bloody plate of salad. bloody amusing.
"To burn always with this hard gemlike flame, to maintain this ecstasy, is success in life."

Yes, status. Lets say you're a doctor, you have status, but do people respect you?Originally posted by Karachi View PostThis is what happens in a society where your status is everything to you. Japan is the most Godless society on earth, and look whats happening
Status or respect? Or you don't actually have any status if people don't respect you?
And lets say, if you were a doctor, if that doctor-ness is taken away from you - is there any redeeming quality in you? Is there a personality, intelligence and passion -anything?

Holland is a very small country. So when people commit suicide they make sure hundreds if not thousands notice it. They jump in front of the train which causes allot of pain and agony in this small overpopulated heavily conjuctioned country. For the commuters.Originally posted by FirdousiNever talk with Afghans about politics. All their political knowledge is limited to conspiracy theories, political demonization and contradictions. No logic, no reason.
