An idea worth spreading
Throughout the ages we, as humans, have prided ourselves in the belief that we are unique and deserve a higher calling, that due to the possession of language, or other tools, we alone are privileged, however, in the face of substantial evidence, the body of which continues to grow, it is time that we took our rightful place, amongst all the other congregations of molecules, vying for stability, desiring only that dissipation of excess energy..No doubt, we have equipment that allows us to temporarily transcend the immediate fate of other, less complex interactions, (albeit that only a few of us seem to use it beneficially, and it is those that do not, that propagate such delusions of grandeur), and whilst there is a majority, that clings on to that heavenly, transcendental ideal, there is always going to be inequality and injustice or a moral and ethical law that benefits only those in power to enforce it..It's time we woke up and cast aside these unfounded, petty and peevish beliefs..

A comment on Talk: Daniel Goleman on compassion
???
"So the next time you tell someone that you love them, also tell them that you don't really love them, it's just a blind algorithmic process in your brain saying that you love them."
Just because this, may be the mechanism, by which, love occurs, that doesn't make love any less real..It is still a profound phenomenon, regardless..
"And violence brings wars. There is more violence today than ever before; there is more crime today than ever before. Awareness of good and evil brings more violence."
Actually, ignorance, power and the inability to rationalise in a conflict of interest, are what drive and motivate the violence..
