What happens to the world when personal responsibility no longer exists? In The Mercy Seat Ben and Abby sit and reflect on their personal needs while the world is crumbling around them. Abby even mentions that she followed a woman around while she posted fliers looking for her missing son. What happens when the most basic humanity is replaced by complete selfishness. Could their efforts have been better spent not chasing each other cat-and-mouse-like through arguement after arguement? In this day and age when so many need help and aren't getting it, isn't there a better way to spend our time than in arguing over semantics and personal needs?
And I know that some people will say "I donate to charity all the time." Donating is not enough, the world is not as the John Mayer song says. We shouldn't be "waiting for the world to change." We should be making it happen.
