Evolution

-

Evolution is darwins scientific observation. Physical changes measured or compared over a period of time.

What it doesn't do is measure intelligence or emotional or spiritual changes or responses. 

We are the ones who ascertain the ability to create and use technology as the intellectual development guide, thus drawing the line between us and the natural world. All the fears from the natural world we borrow from each other draw the lines further between us and the unseen world, the spiritual world.

Yet, we can't separate ourselves completely and those of us who have less technology, less security from the natural world relies more on the spiritual world to protect ourselves not only from what natural world consequences there are but from those who fear the natural world and use technology to smother the natural world.

Science fiction tells us we are capable of doing anything if we can think or believe or hope it's possible. Hope is the spiritual aspect of this type of thinking. If we hope something could be true, then we tap into both the spiritual and natural world. Intervention, by technology or belief, becomes the mainstay of progress. We see no end to possibilities. We believe we are gods, or we are gods little army. God and we become interchangeable.

We don/t want to see ourselves as animal, flesh, bone, until we are pressed to the edge of dying. And then everything we lived for, hoped for but never got, is gone.

We are insatiable until that happens. Like ants, like beasts, like armies of revenge, hell bent on desire, addicted to hope, devoid of truth, we stand impoverished.

Stop Standing Around

Stop Standing Around Here we are. We, the american people get to play the german people, get to dress up our consciousness for genocide denial. Are there even words strong enough, we've spent our collective hubris already. Some 13 or so saudi terrorists crashed planes into the towers, the pentagon, a field in pennsylvania and the people of afghanistan paid the price, the people of iraq were thrown in for good measure and last week america threw in with the twisted dictatorial netanyahu. America is Revenge. Saudi Arabia never saw a bomb, a plane, tank, had its water shut off, its food supply, its white flowing robe empire stripped clean. This week we supported and encouraged the wrong nation to do what it has wanted since 1948. The arabs knew it in 1967 and 1973, that the zionists have eyed the entire region. The Zionist are not the Taliban nor Hamas, though they are not any more exemplary. Their treatment of women is just as foul, their egalitarianism still bound by prejudices form

Conversation and Change #4 by Kraig Scwartz History of World Social Forum

-
                              World Social Forum   After the Cold War ended neoliberal capitalism , no longer fettered by the Soviet Union, expanded to all parts of the world.   Whether it be farmland in Ethiopia, or the fisheries of our great ocenas, the world increasingly came under the control of unbridled “free market” capitalism and the corporations that serve and benefit from those markets.   Under the sway of neoliberalism, governments deregulated their economies, cut back or eliminated social spending,   pushed aside labor unions and promoted “free trade.” Perhaps the major economic hallmark of this post Cold War era was the expansion of world trade through the WTO, NAFTA and other regional trade organizations.  The yearly World Economic Forum held at Davos, Switzerland embraced the  world-wide neoliberal capitalist order.  Yet,  strong resistance to this push for the commodification of the world emerged in various parts of the world, most notably by the indigenous  Zapatis

Don't Obey, Resist

  Don't Obey   It’s the people who obey the orders who scare me Not the ones who give them, those you can ignore. It’s the obedient, whose conscience is devoid of reasoning. For when consent is based on authority alone Freedom and true democracy cannot reign, REAL Democracy is merely giving temporary consent, each time, Not relegating power, forever
