Just to set the record straight

Just to set the record straight. I am a scientist but I am not fond of science. In fact I have always been allergic to the modeling of nature by humans. Why? Simply because it is so human. Science can be beautiful and science can save lives but imagine how many lives could have been saved by simply being humane. Science is game; a game of constraint logic and incoherent vision, a series of inventions, which either sustain or promote our state of decay.

The correct path is not the path of scientific knowledge but the path of spiritual advancement. The state of humanity correlates directly with our spiritual progress and if the yardstick is the state of the modern human then it is evident that what we have accomplished is not progress but ssergorp. Brian Aldiss was correct when he stated, “Civilization is the distance man has placed between himself and his excreta”. This has indeed been our biggest concern so far.

This innate human condition of spiritual illiteracy has been troubling me for quite a few years and only recently I have been able to trace its root. Foolish as I was, I was under the naïve impression that evolution of humanity follows evolution of time, perhaps not linearly but with a positive slope. False, completely false. I have been such a fool.

Allow me then to introduce the concept of the illogical average. The illogical average represents the ubiquitous, in both space and time, class of humans, which due to shear numbers and extreme proneness to manipulation not only stalls but also reverses our spiritual progress. By “our” I mean of course us, the group of humans who believe that life is sacred and needs to be revered. Not only human life but all life. The group of humans who believe that the path to progress need not cross bloody battlefields and ruthless slaughterhouses. The group of humans who have understood the meaning of "Do not unto others what you would not have them do unto you."

If your gods thirst for blood then your gods are humans but if it is you who thirsts for blood, leave the gods out of it. Should you decide though to make a change, you are in luck. Spiritual lobotomies could be reversible.

In the words of Octave Mirbeau, taken out of his book “The Torture Garden”:

“Not savages? and what else are we, I ask you? We are worse savages than the Australian bushmen, since possessing the knowledge of our savagery, we persist in it. “
