The Future Itself Is Dying George W. Bush said:  "When an 18-year-old Palestinian girl is induced to blow herself up and in the process kills a 17-year-old Israeli girl, the future itself is dying" ... Today we the People are embedded in crisis,and paradox, and we find ourselves facing the end times.  Humanity is in crisis, because we cling to the old ways. Life discovered billions of years ago that the best method to escape the old ways, was to transcend them. To transcend means to change the rules. When you change the rules problems can become opportunities. To put away war, to put away conflict and indifference, we must change. We humans can change and United we can change our world. Humans are Time-binders. Ours is the power to know and that knowledge grows without limits. If we remain in our childhood as a species, our conflict and indifference will continue injuring us until we eventually we produce such unlimited weapons that must by definition destroy us. If we are to enter our adulthood as a species we must put away childish things. We must put away the conflict of the adversary way. We must put away the indifference of the neutral way. And, we must put away not only nuclear weapons, but in fact we must put away all weapons. And then and only then will it truly be safe. ... We humans are part of a larger whole. We are a part of the community of humankind. Our time-binding power  —  the power to understand allows us to produce unlimited knowledge. If we use our knowledge to kill  —  if we use our knowledge the adversary way, we will produce unlimited weapons  —  we will produce unlimited death.  (04/06/02) A Human Being is Part of a Whole Albert Einstein wrote: "A human being is part of a whole, called by us the "Universe," a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings, as something separated from the rest -- a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circles of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. " ...   Yesterday, I discussed some of the "other" parts of that whole --  Light, Particles, Atoms and Molecules. Today, I complete the disclosure of Arthur Young's Theory of Process starting with the Plants, and Animals, and finishing with us Humans. (04/06/02) 3:10:30 PM
