One thing I've noticed is that most of humanity have a collective 'psychology' problem.

For example, lots of people are in denial of the truth, but I've also noticed that almost no one sees the bigger picture, you know the grand scheme of things... Even Peak Oilers are guilty of this too...

let me explain:

Recently I found out at Alex Jones website prisonplanet.com he
has publicly/officially announced a "call to action" warning the US public that he predicts there is a 90% chance that another 9/11
type staged government sponsered attack would occur on or before October 6th 2006.

This guy obviously is not 'anti-american' and depending how you view it, one could say he is VERY PRO-america, and even a true patriot. He loves his 'country' with all his heart, and he despises the crooked guys in office that is turning this country into a 'police-state' and undermining everything America stands for and causing the collapse of America itself.

But is that what BUSH and co. is REALLY doing?
PNAC is not off to destroy America, it exists for the sole
purpose of PRESERVING American hemegony in the 21st century.
(something that is increasingly hard to accomplish, thus the drastic measures of energy pearl harbors)

The way I see it, Bush and America's scheme to live and prosper will bring down global civilization and humanity itself down faster.
America's 'success' will other further serve to 'crash' earth faster...


BUT, is that really a 'bad' thing?

See this is the extreme irony of it all, you Peak Oilers aren't really much different from the brainwashed 'masses'. Much like the same way Alex Jones isn't much different than George Walker Bush.

Think about it. Think....

The bacteria in a petri dish let natures due course take its course, what will happen will happen. Every form of life instictive 'follows' the course of nature. Without life there is no death, yet without death there is no life. The Yin and the Yang are both equally necessary and need to be in balance. Death is a nature part of 'life'.
Whether this is death of a cell, a body, or an entire civilization or species. The dinosaurs had to die off to make way for new fresh forms of life, for a better variety, and genetic diversity and evolution dictates the ABSOLUTE need for 'death'. Without death there would be no renew, no process, and no optimization.

Each of us are here today because of the eons of lifeforms that came and went before us. They are (for the most part) all long long past gone, yet they served a 'purpose' and had 'meaning' while they existed. But they didn't last forever, and neither will we as human beings last forever.

Why is this so hard for you guys to understand and accept?

Yes America is acting like a virus, Bush/Enron Government is acting like there is no tomorrow, the World is unsustainable, we are no smarter than bacteria in a petri dish.

But need we be? If this is nature's design, and nature's intent, then WHO ARE WE to challenge that? Who are we to be clever and try to circumvent and prevent the all but too inevitable death of this homo sapien specieces?

Yes, know that the Government is the greatest liar in the world makes me bad. Knowing that 9/11 was staged, the devils acting as angels, infuriates me. But in the grand scheme of things,
I think everything is happening exactly as its supposed to.

And that is liberating.

Uhhh, so you're saying that we should just kick back and finish off the Merlot and wait till the end comes? Sounds like you're using a rather teleological view of things to justify doing nothing. I can't call your view a big picture anymore than I can call some creation myth about the world being created in 7 days by an omnipotent all seeing god the big picture. What if there is no intent on the part of Nature or God or Tolkien's Illuvatar or Zoroaster or Allah or Great Spirit or the Supernatural Space Hippo or the Spaghetti Monster God? What if all this is just the result of colliding particles with no beginning and no end and no purpose?

There's a lot of big pictures out there and it seems that they are like opinions, anuses and armpits; everybody has one. Many known personally to me use such "big pictures" to justify their own laziness and lack of preparation. Perhaps that is where the "liberation" comes into play. For my part, I'll leave this kind of "liberation" lying in the stagnant ditch where i last saw it.

You can keep your big picture. I'll keep building my lifeboat.

Thanks for the link Khan. There is one quote from Michael Ruppert that I picked up in the past and that struck me which was in the nature of this: If there is one thing that would need to be changed in order to change the current circumstances it is the way 'money works'.

Money is as complex as life itself it seems in its application and involvement. How to make friends with such a sucker, goddess and tyrant?

I've looked at all the 9/11 conspiracy theories and I don't find any of them persuasive. The only thing that is a little odd is how large the United Flight 93 debris field was--there were pieces of plane found up to 8 miles away I believe and one of the engines was about a mile from the crash sight, as I recall. Maybe this means the plane broke up before it hit the ground because of some wild maneuver or maybe a missile hit it....

But as for the idea that the whole thing was a conspiracy by the U.S. government, I think that is a sad interpretation of a really awful act by a group of Islamic radicals.

We evolve.
Guided mainly by our animal instinct we made it this far.
We will now learn to suppress these instincts and allow our brain to guide us the rest of the way.......... or not.
Think monkey think!!!

This is what Neitzsche meant when he spoke of the "overman" which is more then likely where we get the word superman from.
A being that transcends and solves problems...hmm with logic.

This also directly correlates with Darwin's "strongest".
In my attempts to define wether or not humans are special I find myself tangled in a web of words attempting to define the word "special".
If one choses to see things in a "matrix analogy" sense then we could even question the first two words "are we?".
All I want is a picture showing the face of the first monkey to panick when it first noticed it had hands



profound!
