Will Humanity become extinct?
Question from the Internet:
“Do people deserve extinction? Why?”
No, we do not deserve extinction and Nature does not have the intention to “exterminate” us.
It is true, that at present humanity behaves, and exists like cancer, excessively overconsuming, ruthlessly competing, surviving, succeeding at the expense of others and Nature.
But we act like this blindly, following our inherent “software” Nature installed in us. We are not evil or sinful since we had no free choice about the original software we are born with. And evolution intentionally, purposefully created us this way.
Our free choice starts from the moment we recognized that blindly following our inherent operating software drives us towards self-destruction and terrible suffering and we also recognize that we can change, and further develop ourselves. Our responsibility for our state and for our future, the so-called “reward and punishment” starts only from that recognition.
And this point of free choice, this point of responsibility for our future development arrived in our generation. Masses of people recognize and accept that the root of all our problems — both historically and in our time — is within us. many also accept the need to change ourselves instead of changing, correcting, defeating, censoring others or manipulating the world around us.
And we also have the necessary, unique, purposeful and highly practical scientific, educational method that can help us in “upgrading” our original software, complementing it with Nature’s integral template, with Nature’s ability to form sustainable, positive, mutually responsible and mutually complementing integration, cooperation, communication between diverse and seemingly incompatible parts.
It is this conscious self-adaptation, self-upgrade that will elevate us to the “truly Human” level. Nature installed the unfinished, raw operating software in us so we would have free choice and conscious ability to finish our Human development by our own efforts.
This will make us the Natural system’s only conscious, integrated but independent observers and partners.
