The Other End Of History

Finally, as far as all of this goes -- the world affairs, the religious disputes, the toils of mankind at this day and age -- as far as all that, we are so early in the era of human history and development that the time will come that everything that is happening today will be as relevant and consequential as the tribulations of the early Cro-Magnons are to us now. And since all of time is happening at once, if these events WILL BE irrelevant SOME DAY, that day is now. They are completely irrelevant.

Many will listen, but few will hear.

People Are Morons

People are morons. It's pretty amazing that we're as smart as we are in comparison to other animals, true, but mostly it's frustrating that we're just smart enough to see that we're not smart enough. If people weren't morons, they wouldn't need to invent religions to keep themselves organized. If people weren't morons, they wouldn't need to invent governments and laws to keep them from raping and robbing one another. When you look at us as really clever chimps in clothes, our accomplishments are quaint and impressive. When you look at us as, quite possibly, the highest developed manifestation of intelligence in the universe, suddenly you get depressed. The next step is to invent a god that's smarter than you, so you don't have to be depressed anymore. And it all starts again....
