Human's poison

Thinking on birth conception. And the things humans do in society made me want to talk about how wrong we are in our lifestyle. I personally believe that we are doing a mistake by living the way we live. What do I mean with this? Basically the way we live in a society. The way we act, by being different from the rest of the species and the way culture, and technology, misguide us from the real purpose in life.

I know that this idea is very extreme butI believe that we should live like the rest of the animals do. The way our ancestors did. And I mean our primate ancestors...

Just because we are more intelligent, doesn't mean that we have to leave the way we do. For example, why do we need technology? In the world we live in, we do need it. We want it and we wouldn't let go of it. But think for a moment, why would we really need an ipod for instance? Why would we need a TV. Why do we need telephones? These are all things that were made, and then became necessary, not the other way around.

We live in a material world and as cliche as it may sound, we are forgetting the meaning of life. We are forgetting nature. And we are forgetting that the world isn't ours. We just make a part of it.

In fact, I believe that there wouldn't be that many wars if we lived in tribes. We would collect the food, eat our food, and then sleep. What a wonderful world would that be.

As I mentioned in one of my previous posts. It is the intelligence that we posses that made us go in the wrong direction. Just as Daniel Quinn proposes on Ishmael, "where are going on a downward spiral that will destroy humanity".

The problem is that we are too mistaken to change. It would be impossible, first to convince all that nothing that we use is necessary. That we don't need economy. That we don't need cars. That we don't even need schools.

It is a shame to know that we are going to crash, but we cant do nothing about it. Just like a driver who has no brakes and is approaching an abism. There is not much we can do. Fortunately, you might say, we will not be alive to notice these effects. But eventually, we will all accept that we've gone wrong.

This looks like the beginning of a story like 1984. The only way to manipulate poeople for their own good is by making them forget. By erasing everything and starting over again. But how can we do it?
