What would the Aliens think if they were observing us right now?
Humanity is in a mess! Our global economy is ailing. Everyone is at each other’s throat for this or that… people are dying of malnutrition both in Africa and in America: the Africans don’t have enough food; the Americans have too much of the wrong kind…
There are inflamed pockets of unrest in strategic places all over the world.
They are threatening to spread and to take permanent control of the human psyche, overriding our intellect and turning us into irrational individualistic and egocentric fiends.
As a whole we cannot reach consensus as to what needs to be done in order to save our planet.
We are sleepwalking towards our demise if we carry on exerting planetary resources at the rate we have so far…
But we are happy to carry on attacking both nature and our own bodies by plying ourselves with as many pesticides, drugs, and radioactivity as we can muster regardless of the fact that we have no effective means for controlling those forces!
The closer we live to each other, the more aggressive we become.
Fraternity and unity are only to be temporarily attained at someone else’s expense!
Individuals form close knit groups in order to defend themselves from a perceived outside attack: that’s what you see in football hooliganism, Communism versus Capitalism, Atheism versus Religion, Homeopaths versus Allopaths… you get the idea…the more insecure about your own survival you become the more prejudiced against others, and the less tolerant to their views.
Our fellow human has become a threat!
Take the example of the London gangs who organise themselves by where they live and will attack members of other gangs if they come into their post code – by the way, I hope the powers that be have taken this into account in their restructuration of the London Boroughs…I’m not joking, the last thing we need now is gangs fighting on our streets to establish their new territories!
A common threat does wonders for cohesion and unity!
The secret is to find a common threat that is large enough to enlist us humans in the some war instead of dividing us to fight lesser causes.
It needs to be something that doesn’t raise too many philosophic questions, and also something that it is truly an outside threat so that we cannot blame each other for it…
That’s why neither the approaching of the “End of the World” in 2012 nor the “Global Warming” are able to bring us all into unity!
The first threat relies on the assumption that the Mayans had visionary powers for looking into the distant future guided by a mythical god; the second brings a pass the bucket attitude, with individuals cynically blaming companies for providing them with the means for planetary destruction… let’s try to be honest for once: as individuals we should be able to take the responsibility for most of the damage that’s been done! After all the corporations wouldn’t have been able to keep in business if we hadn’t support them by buying their products…
Any way that’s not going to be a reasonable and permanent way to unity either, but let’s at least start by taking responsibility for our own mistakes and our own lifestyle choices!
Just a couple of days ago we're holding our breath and hoping that the UARS, that blasted thing that NASA had taken into space to monitor the damage that we are doing to the Ozone layer, wasn’t going to fall on someone’s head!
It’s okay for NASA to say that the chances of someone being hit are only minute, but when that is said under the same breath as “We don’t know where it is going to fall, and we cannot be precise about what day or time it'll happen…” it’s hard not to take it personally, and to not think that we could be the unlucky one who gets hit by that piece of space junk the size of double decker bus tumbling from space at high speed.
Space junk is a serious problem with millions of objects orbiting Earth right now.
Should we be angry at Space Agencies for trashing our atmosphere despite their knowledge of the increasing problem that they're causing even to their own spacecraft? Risking a huge ecologic disaster with such a cavalier attitude to discarding rubbish in space as we would leave our trash cans out for collection? Or by dismissing incidents like last weekend’s with a “ everything that runs out of fuel will eventually come back down to Earth”?
Off course I’m angry! I would like them to start cleaning up after themselves!
It wasn’t me who trashed space! But wasn’t I happy to see photos taken from space, to learn about new research and to find out about every one of the space missions?
We are in this together… pointing the finger at each other and doing nothing is not going to bring us long term wellbeing!
Still looking at a possible solution for our global fragmentation as a collective …
I say: BRING IN THE ALIENS!
That’s right they may be the only solution we’ve got left! So if there are any Aliens out there reading this blog: prepare to do your bit for us, just come in, and stage an invasion! That's a sure way to bring us all together in a collective effort against you - the common enemy, and to remind us that after all we are all human!
Oh! And by the way fellow humans, don’t let those alien invaders belittle us for our current financial mess! Take them to Westfield Shopping Centre I’m sure it will put their alien minds at rest about the threat of a Terrestrial double dip recession!
