Evolving words a solution to society?

smurf had a thought. if certain words that society know could change with the times. evolution/revolution then the world would be a better place. less generalising, misconception, judging & classing etc... people are lazy though & figure if some thing works dont change it.

if people were all thinking of the greater good this could of happened already, maybe it has? if so it has only happened in small amounts that can't have a huge beneficial impact like the below first example.

some examples:
here in SA our 'drug stores' as other countries know it, were called chemists a few years ago. the name changed to a 'pharmacy' a while back. as the pharmacy is now a distributor of the drugs being made from the chemists. a chemist back in the day was fine cos things were made in house by the chemist/cook.
.................................................. .................................................. .................................................. ...............
now to help people with their beliefs & have a effect for the well being of humanity/society.
think of these & other words.

drug. this has quite a stigma to it & there is various drugs, so people get judged for it being the illegal ones. yet to have head ache tablets is fine, this is having a natural negative effect.

i strongly believe it should be changed to what is more suited until & if it perhaps gets too much of a stigma or what ever then change it again when due. quick easy example for a illegal drug is it is a psychedelic 'stimulant'. this word will do alot more for peoples views.

the word faith. people get judged on this & get the wrong impressions.
the word god. people quickly think of a person. it's too traditional.
the word religion. people get judged on this & get the wrong impressions.

certain words like love are great cos that creates a good correct thought in your mind.
if one thinks of the word hate & uses it directed to some one it is quite a strong feeling to have to another person. surely dislike is more appropriate depending on the circumstance. so naturally one should think before speaking.

smurf has to throw this one out there. government! the word government can remain unchanged as most peope have the right impressions & thoughts when thinking & using this word & is why things like this idea are'nt in action & have such a negative effect. lol...

i'm sure other swimmers can think of many examples smurf is trying to make a point of... post your views here if you agree, smurf can think of alot more words to post.

it's a long shot but the education system is'nt at it's best that it can be. my opinion.
