Humans quickly learn to focus on the things in their lives that they can change and to rationalize the things that they can’t change in order to feel ok.Yet the rationalizations created by the mind attempting to refocus attention on fresh opportunities – create lasting ideological barriers. These ideological barriers keep us from learning how to change the things we previously believed were out of our hands.
the bible makes no mention of DNA
the Buddha knew nothing of direct electrical stimulation…Humans have long believed in the indomitability of involuntary suffering, death, and life experience Darwinian design.
We have the power, using biotechnology, to potentially eliminate the involuntary suffering and death associated with our genetic design.
Yet some Darwinians are so addicted to their rationalizations that they fear others having the ability to change their lives – as this would cause them to face the realities of life.
Darwinian minds addicted to specific memetic rationalizations like religion feel real pain when their ideologies are threatened – as the false veil of subdued acceptance is lifted.
How can we alleviate the pain caused by the truth while empowering Darwinians to shed their rationalizations?
We can promote effective means at resolving the human condition. When people have the options in front of them – they will choose pleasure over pain (all things being equal).
The truth is seemingly self-evident in retrospect.
