Warning, just a rant.
When comparing the human race as a whole in development to that of a single child, it can demonstrate some very simple, yet fundamental correlations in our evolution as a species.
From the micro to the macro if you will.
Where we are currently, where we've been and where we are going.
Mind you this is very fundamental and just off the cuff.
First the basics. The instincts programmed for survival.
Human race, primal drives, non-reason or effort, do whats neccessary for basic survival according to your nature.
Baby is born, knows to suck on mothers breast for food. Purely physical pain pleasure drives of crying and pure experience. No concepts as of yet.
Next, the developmant or birth of awareness.
This is this, and that is that. No longer one big blur or experience.
Seperate objects mean different experiences.
This is me, that is not me.
The need for love, dependance.
Having that being come and feed you when you cried, or felt uncomfortable.
To tend to you in times of emotional uncomfortableness.
Needing a father or mother figure in your life.
Someone to make everything all right.
For a child, this would be the parent.
The human race, this would be god.
A good parent would eventually be able to teach their children to become independant and think for themselves.
Unfortunately, God has never come down to do the same.
Why? Well, let's just leave that open for discussion.
The human race is arrested in development.
It is stuck in a pubescant period.
Waiting for god to come down to teach them how to be independant and think for themselves.
This is not going to happen.
I can't help but feel mean when I say this.
However, the world needs to grow up, quickly.
It is time for us to become what we are.
Independant thinkers and reckognize reason as our primary means of survival.
You will either wake up and choose to think for yourself, or choose not to think and wait for mom or dad to come and save you and show you the way, to bring you back to that time of that blury sensual experience of something other than you taking care of your every need.
Time to grow up Human Race.
If there is a God, he's getting ready to kick you out of the basement.
I warned you this was a rant.
I'm still awesome.
