Will we next create false gods to rule over us? How proud we have become, and how blind.
Sister Miriam Godwinson, "We Must Dissent"
I've had some questions on my latest tag line that I've used for the past 5 or so blogs. above is the original context from which it derives.
Now my take, and purpose on it. We live in a complacent time. Life is relatively easy. We work, do our needed things, piddle with our unneeded things, and basicaly give lip service to the state of affairs in our wotld. Right now, both while I am typing this, and while you are reading it, people are dying, children are going hungry, and some people are getting richer by letting this happen.
We must dissent.
As I have said in the past, I am a nihilist by nature and an agnostic by birthright. While I have no problem with humanity hitting the big reset switch and dumping the majority of us into the Void, I do care about how we treat each other.
We are slowly but surely changing the planet, a window seat on any plane flight over 2 hours long can show you that, especially at dusk and dawn. Nature works in a balance, and it is a balance we do not obey. In the food chain, we are a prime order predator, our ancestors rose up gathered together, and multipied, to the detriment of everything else on this planet. Also to clarify, I'm not a bleeding heart liberal, Peta, Earth First, ELF, Greenpeace kind of guy, most of those groups I consider follies, amusements that have no real effect on the state of things. We have gone too far for that.
Learn to swim.
