My wish is for you to have a Happy Monday
If we are to accept the findings of science then our ancestors has been on the earth for some 6 million years and man the modern human form evolved some 200,00 years ago and civilization as we know it is only 6000 years old. This may partially explain why man has survived and not self destruct a long time ago. (The idea that civilization as we know it is only 6000 years old is in line with the creationist teachings of Judaeo/Christian religion.)
Creationist and science agree that modern civilization is approximately 6000 years old so it is reasonable to assume that after approximately 6000 years of existence, humanity should possibly have worked out a formula for survival, peaceful coexistence and how to share the earth's resources. However, after 6000 years of civilization as we know it and with different nations at times dominating the earth humanity, is awaiting an excuse to self destruct.
One of the driving forces in humanity is the need to dominate, a need which is powered by the hormones androgen and testosterone in the males. The females often desire to lord it over the males but it is unsure as what hormones power their desires to do so. There are other females which use a more effective means to control the males and the world knows that governments and policies are directed and manipulated from the bedrooms. It becomes dangerous to have a man in charge of government who does not have the calming influence from the bedroom. it is known that women are more sensible and practical than men. Maybe this is why humanity have survived this long.
Science tell us that modern human evolve from an ancestor that is somewhat close to an ape. This may explain the need for the alpha male although the alpha male need powerful friends to keep him at the top and there are those who are ever ready to topple the alpha male. Humanity have discovered that in order to have a civilized society then there is the need for leadership and government. We cannot afford a world of alpha males with no alpha females to exert their calming influences.
Leadership styles differ and it may be difficult to establish which leadership style is most effective or the best because ultimately the desired results are achieved. The same thing can be said of the various forms of government because it is a fool that practices a form of government while declaring that another form of of government is better. The end result of government hopefully is that those governed are happy but it is also true that for some individual it is being at the top irrespective of what others think.
After 6000 years of civilization as we know it humanity should have worked out how to get along in terms of government, race and religion among other things.It is time for humanity not to allow diversity to cause death and destruction because these three poses some of the greatest threat to the survival of humanity. It is ridiculous that the other party is seen as a threat and must be destroyed because he pursues a different form of government, is of a different race or practices a different form of religion.
Pride and testosterone are a dangerous combination in males and the most aggressive and belligerent often dominate on the one hand. On the other hand the man who is most evil and crafty may exercise power over others. It is the desire to be the alpha male which make one nation desire to force its beliefs systems, ideologies and forms of government on another nation.If a close look be taken at the past twenty years it will be found that the so-called dominant nations that have sought to punish and overthrown other governments have been guilty of worse atrocities than those they seek to punish.
Religion is a reality in our world and Hinduism, Islam and Christianity are practiced by more than half the population of the earth. Buddhism with it 500 million adherents is worthy of note and there are many other religious beliefs. It would be amiss not to mention Judaism which could effectively be described as the mother of both Christianity and Islam. The idea behind religion is that there is a supreme being that directs and controls the destiny of humans. Religion for the most part does not encourage peaceful co-existence but demands becoming a convert to the religion or be destroyed. Islam, Christianity and Judaism awaits the messiah who shall destroy all unbelievers and their religion be the only and ascending religion.
Science does not adequately explain how the various races evolved or how the continents and islands got inhabited. There are tribes in the Amazon Basin of South America and possibly other areas that it is illegal for outsiders to contact. These tribes are people who have survived and continue to survive in primitive conditions for thousand of years. Who knows if there are other people to whom they consider themselves superior. There have been the rise and fall of nations and peoples over the course of the 6000 years of civilization as we know it. It is in the DNA of man to make war and to conquer to establish superiority. What is it that makes one race superior to the other? The answer lies with the standards set by man. Science agree that humans have a common ancestor but as noted there is no records as to how the various races evolved or how they got to the land areas that they have occupied. One of the big issues in terms of superiority of race race is the need for persons of Caucasian descent to prove superiority to the person of African descent. This have lead to persons of Caucasian descent desiring to be rid of persons of African descent because the competition becomes unfair. What the person of Caucasian descent have accumulated and achieved over a period of a hundred years the person of African descent accomplishes in one sitting. The Caucasian chose to level the playing field in terms of education opportunities and continue to regret such a decision because the Africans are outshining the Caucasian. The brilliance of the persons of Indian, Chinese and Japanese are accepted but because the Africans were subjected to being plundered, enslaved and robbed by greedy Europeans and people of Caucasian descent. The African surpasses the ideal of what the person of Caucasian descent desire to be and this is why persons of Caucasian descent claim superiority by virtue of skin color.
Maybe the time has come to put all to the test and put an end to debating. Each government, religion and race could get the universe to set the standards then have a test to see which is the best form of government, which religion is the best and which race is superior. This competition should be open to all form of government, every religion and have every race represented.
have a happy week.
