this talks about geometric progressions, and exponential growth. how population, an exponentially growing element, should have led to exponentially growing possibilities. but instead, we’r stuck in a deteriorating state.
imagine a traffic jam. a long one. when the light’s green, the cars accelerate and cross a line, a line that divides this side of the road from the other. if the cars accelerate, and assuming a trouble free road (where they don’t have to stop again), the speed of any car crossing that line is increasing. the difference of speed between a car that has crossed and is crossing now, is getting bigger. the speeds are increasing.. going higher and higher.
this is geometric progression. exponential growth. its like a rubber band; the more you pull, the further apart the atoms go, and the difference doesn’t increase linearly with the distance you are stretching..it increases exponentially.
does one remember the times of Einstein and Newton? of Darwin and Copernicus? has anyone else noticed how these all-changing theories popped out, one after another after another. in what would seem a very small time, humanity had traveresed accross so many territories of thought, found so many things.
with exponentially increasing population, shoudn’t we have traversed the planet at an exponential rate? with more people working on similar projects, shouldn’t we have cut down on the delivery-time dramatically? and with exponentially increasing population, shouldn’t we also have more people thinking of more and more innovations in more and more fields of expertise?
while i was bent trying to use coal as fuel, wouldn’t tom try to get a head start by looking at alternate forms of energy? couldn’t dick have ditched us both and researched on chemical reactions and the energy they release as a source of energy? if harry had let any of us a helping hand, wouldn’t we get done with our innovations faster, and had more time to appreciate and improve on, or move on from our ideas!
why would i be bent on crude oil, if i understood it was a limited resource and, read about your ideas on making machinery run with water – a cleaner, and readily renewable source of energy? why would i produce carbon when i see promise in your idea of getting the energy out of the process that makes water!
i’d have to really be an idiot to do that. a finely programmed idiot, with no ability to think freely, or to critically analyze a given situation. i’d have to roll over based on commands, without thought or recognition, without sense, on a puddle of shit.
we are in a world where we are fed to believe lies, and are doctrined to wield lies as our greatest weapon against this crisis called life.
