THE PATH TO MAN'S EXTINCTION
Throughout our history and prehistory humans have been on a journey of extraordinary measures. Seeking to better our lives by creating and adapting to our environment to clothe, feed, and shelter ourselves in order to survive. In this most basic and inherit desire for survival we began to evolve to better our society, we have also set out on a path of our own unassuming self destruction. We began identifying ourselves by our clans and the primitive desire to protect that clans social and economical stability. In its self that is an innocent and positive strength, however as we multiplied into larger populations we failed to adapt these desires to grow as society grew. Instead we stayed focused on our small clans and keeping with that identity. As these clans grew so did our first steps to our own downfall begin. We developed a desire to conquer and kill that which we identified as different and unlike our own. By doing so we have refused to acknowledge all man as our social priority so we created war. Man began giving names and stereotypes to one another to associate the difference instead of the similarities of each other. We have created cultures within cultures to the point of disconnecting ourselves from our own ability to adapt and progress as one collective society for the betterment of mankind as a whole.
Even as technologies and sciences developed within society we learned to use this acute knowledge to further segregate ourselves from each other. Developing even further negative designations such as religions and politics that defined and separated groups into sects, and sects into empires by manipulating our advances into larger warfare. This second and greater step came in the name of gods and moral preservation simply as a method to further the annihilation of those declared different and unlike ourselves. Thus creating even greater rifts in man's ability to adapt and advance for the good of all mankind. We no longer see ourselves as the human race instead replaced by multiple factions raging to become the dominate and further binding us with oppressive control and superstitious desires.
We as a global society have condemned ourselves to a future of bloodshed and abuse of humanity. The hope is slowly fading of a peaceful, unified race of human evolution, working to better adapt in a cooperative effort to secure our place in the universe. As war roars on in the name of religions and fear, populations fade into the dusty pages of history. We have but only one chance and one life to ensure our future survival and evolution. It is sad that we have chosen to use this gift to destroy and isolate instead of uniting and striving for more. This is why I feel that mankind is taking his final steps into extinction. As long as we bow to the self- induced passions of judgment and fanatical mongering, our technologies and all our knowledge will not be enough to save us from ourselves.
