1:well I say this new thing.
2:I mean i think ive heard this, but i and everyone think THIS
1:yeah everyone does... you're right
2:i mean it's common knowledge
1:yeah thats what was i thinking

-If anyone could argue against this, it would make me feel alot better.
The technology of man has been growing at an exponential rate. Think in terms of the earth... the thing we take our life from (along with the sun). We've been here for the smallest portion. We've VERY recently been able to kill other people with the pull of a trigger. Next came the possibility of thousands of people with the drop of a bomb. During the Cold War, we as a species, developed the ability to destroy our own planet many times over. This has grown and spread to where it reaches the poorest areas of the world.
-As a people we have created things and reasons which have more importance than our lives. (rightly or wrongly...people are poor and kept down) For longer than we have known, people have been dying for things they think greater than they are, and so people put things in front of their life and value other things more than human life. (suicide bombers, hari kari pilots, on and on through history)
-Realistically, how long until THIS technology reaches THESE hands?? If you really think about it, there is very little chance life as we know it will live for even two hundred years.
The thing is its in the nature of a group to sense its own destruction and I'm just wondering, how have we not noticed this?
-We have and there's nothing we can do.

this just spurred my thoughts

saw this quote on a joy division docu "To be modern is to find ourselves in an environment that promises us adventure, power, joy, growth, transformation of ourselves and the world - and at the same time that threatens to destroy everything we have, everything we know, everything we are." Marshall Berman different context but I liked it

It is a very scary thought. And the more i think about it the more it seems right on the money, as much I don't want it to be.
