-These are the notes Macha has made whilst listening to this video-
1. We will blow ourselves up first. These laws that would 'unify us' would be excellent in theory but I don't believe human beings have the ability to put aside their hatred, malice and over all need for domination over any given culture (and in short, the world) and willingly embrace these unified laws. When we don't understand something-- usually people and their way of life/beliefs, we seek to dominate them and restructure them to our ideals. If we can't do this, the next best (horrible and totally unnecessary) option is to destroy them/it.
2. I believe its more wishful thinking (and I'm in that wishful thinking/hoping side) and hoping that all humans will gain a better understanding of the universe. Ignorance is an epidemic we've not yet found ways to eradicate though we've made great strides through public education, awareness, media advertisement (which is considered propaganda if we don't believe or agree with the advertised material) and various books and published theories to allow people open access to the knowledge we've found and or are still in the process of exploring for further definitive answers. Very few people take advantages of such resources and a fair few that do go into conspiracy theories and join all those anti-military, anti-brain control groups that are more like cults than concerned and worried citizens
3. "Children ask the big questions because they don't know enough not to." I agree with this statement yet I'm disgusted by it. At no time should you be of any age and taught 'Not to ask'. If we are conditioned to 'not ask', how in the hell are we suppose to learn? How are we suppose to progress? How are we to evolve? Further more, in order to understand a universal law or set of laws, one must ASK so they can be EDUCATED and INFORMED so they are given the proper tools and knowledge to make a decision or opinion from what information is offered.
4. Thank you Mr. Dude with the ear piece! YES! Schools DO in fact discourage children from an early age NOT to ask questions! We are conditioned from an early age that asking questions is WRONG when the answer is complex or easily debatable-- meaning when the answer can be very biased. A good example is a child asking a teach if evolution is real. Well if the teacher's religious views say NO-- then the theory of evolution in their mind is wrong and their answer to the child will be influenced significantly-- thus really never answering the question. Not to mention the American Public School systems are rubbish in my opinion. But thats a discussion for another day ^_^
5. THANK YOU AGAIN MR. EAR PIECE MAN! "Why is the moon round" asks a child, and the teach responds "What shape did you expect it to be? Square?!" Well FUCK YOU teacher! Its not like we're BORN with this knowledge and frankly if the moon was square from the beginning of time till now, and the child asked the same question, would you reply the same way? Fundamental questions are building blocks to a secure foundation of knowledge and will only increase a child's desire to learn, understand and explore. We NEED people who WANT to explore those unknown variables and theories so we can better understand the world, the universe and life itself! Society demands better science, better health care, better everything! How can we better things when you're stunting the growth of a mind from such a young age?
6. Damn. We're old. Our earth is a fucking dinosaur. No, in fact, our earth makes Dinosaurs look like whipper snappers. (Not that I didn't know that but damn...hearing it is so odd)
7. Cosmic evolution is grand. And in my opinion what the cosmos can do without human assistance (such as create an entire galaxy) is scientific divinity. It is so amazing how little help the earth really needs from humans to sustain itself. In fact, if we weren't here, the sun would continue to shine (believe it or not!) and the earth would be pretty peachy. I think that is amazing. So the next time you have a friend with their head rammed up their ass, consider this; so do you. We don't often consider that if we didn't exist, the earth still would. It would be a totally different place, but the earth would still exist and be perfectly content in her every revolving circle around her lover, the sun.
