It is not just others - this is in the UK.....

It says that:
This stone commemorates the legend of Coinneach Odhar, better known as the Brahan Seer
Many of his prophesies were fulfilled and the tradition holds that his untimely death by burning in tar followed his final prophesy of the doom of the house of Seaforth.
bad, bad, bad.
It would seem to be a thing that all cultures go through
Ours have been through it all and a new attack has begun
There is not always an easy escape from those that know better
We have had the physical attacks, next it will be the law makers
Other parts of the world are still in the attack stages
Enlightenment will have to take its natural course
It cannot be rushed or pushed alone too fast
The strongest steel is tempered by heat
However, the strongest of buildings
Fall's to slow undermining by others
