The culture of the world is such that one is valued not for oneself but for what one can give or do, thus reducing us to a utility. So we must always strive to prove our worth. The effect of such a meritocratic society is that those who are undeserving have no place in this world. It is no wonder that society is advocating euthanasia, encouraging abortion, advocating stem cell research involving embryos and even cloning so that we can produce the supermen and superwomen of society. Those who are weak and unable to excel have no place in society, because society does not want to be burdened with them.

Do you agree?
