Our present, mostly Western civilization is collapsing like the Roman Empire

Question from the Internet:

“What period of history are we currently reliving in 2022?”

Human history is basically the chronicle of the constantly growing and intensifying human ego driving us. And as a result, human history is a helpless chain of recurring vicious cycles, the growing ego repeating the same mistakes and crimes on an ever-intensifying level, with greater destruction each time.

But if you truly want a parallel, we could say we are reliving the collapse of the Roman Empire as the long-ruling and prospering Western civilization is crumbling within. And then the “barbarians” — non-western powers considered inferior or barbarian by the West — nations will pick it apart, although they won’t fare any better in the long run.

The minority of the Western world might transition into a “religious fanatic” enclave, but it is unlikely to be Christianity or a version of it this time. And whatever it will, it won’t survive long either.

Nothing we can repeat or invent from history based on our inherently selfish, egoistic and exploitative nature can survive any longer. As our egoistic human system has reached its peak, we have become totally incompatible with Nature’s strict laws that govern the general balance and homeostasis life depends on.

Unless we consciously and purposefully change in order to reach compatibility with Nature’s finely balanced and mutually integrated system, humanity will lose its “right to exist”, and we will eject ourselves from Nature’s evolutionary system.

These are the crossroads we are standing at right now. Either intolerable suffering or a wise, purposeful and methodical process — based on nature’s laws and evolution’s direction — will make us change our ways and adapt.
