Why or Why Not Human Origins Really Matters

We know we are here because we are here.

We know that at some time, we were not here.

Therefore, there was a beginning of the humans on Earth.

The Bible says there was an Adam and Eve.  But what race were they?

The scientists say we evolved from single-celled organisms.  We cannot prove this until we can repeat the process in the laboratory.  And, those bones and skulls found here and there do not fit with the time frame of hundreds of thousands of years of supposed hunting and gathering.

The ancient pyramids and stone structures around the world indicate that some serious rock moving was going on in the past and we moderns have yet to explain it.  Then again, if an ancient were to see a major city with all its skyscrapers, lights, and streets with cars, would they think they had gone to paradise?

The only conclusion is we do not know how humans got to Earth.  Or, an intellectual may shop around the various origin stories and choose which one feels right.

Time is also a mystery.  Does the Universe even have to go one-way in time?  Clearly, we are making progress.  But towards what are we progressing?

Without consensus, how can a human origin story really matter?

A story is just a story.  We need stories to make us feel comfortable and give us meaning.

We need stories to tell each other, dare I say, regardless of the truth?

Philosophers who seek truth may be in for a surprise after they have written their books.

It is a mystery why we are born, live, then die.

I don't know why I am here.  I just know I am here.

UTOPIA --- or THE AUTOMATIC REPEAT OF ONE WHOLE WEEK

So, it's been awhile, but what is TIME anyway?  A human construct is the answer.

I was watching a YouTube video on "Safe Spaces" in Universities, and I had been fasting for at least 12 hours when the following rant came to me:

--------

My rant here:

RELIGION + RACE + GENDER + AGE = CULTURE  -- the means of COMMUNICATION are:

MONEY (POWER OVER MATTER) + SEX (REPRODUCTION) + GOD (POWER OVER MIND) = HOW A CULTURE CHANGES

The way we make these work is we make AGREEMENTS:

1>  I will not force my beliefs on you if you do not force your beliefs on me.
2>  I will not persecute you if you do not persecute me (for my Nationality((composition of DNA))).
3>  I will not assume you will have relations with me if you do not assume I will have relations with you. (rape/abortion)
4>  I will listen to your story (new) if you will listen to my history (old).

FREE SPEECH shall be LIMITED by what OFFENDS.  (THE PARADOX) (how can you know what offends before you say it?)

Telepathy and dream time is the MEDIUM of AGREEMENT and shall be developed at an AGREEABLE age.


Plug all these ideas into a supercomputer, and voila -- UTOPIA !!!!


---------

This, I believe, is a path toward a better society for all.

I should add that this is only a skeleton.  The vital organs are yet to be "fleshed" out...

Stay tuned, as I may flesh this out right here, right NOW (???)
