A FINAL SUMMARY FROM by Samuel Tolsdorf

 


A FINAL SUMMARY

Spiritual beliefs have evolved over the centuries, and there is no actual evidence to support that humanity's prospects on earth are overseen and determined by such imaginary deities in the heavens. However, I must admit that our present prospects continue to be determined by our promotions and entrapment by them. In modern times we have learned much about the universe and the earth that contains its many forms of life. Our investigations and discoveries have given us a clearer understanding as to what causes all species on this planet to compete for survival, and why mankind is fated to eternal struggle and strife in their competitions with each other. We should wish to overcome such of a pre-destiny, and it is disturbing to find that our species hasn't taken the necessary action to do so.

We have explored the far reaches of our planet, and have discovered that our species has evolved from animalistic origins and less intelligent ages, and we should now realize that if there were no opposing nations on our planet there would be no competition and wars between them. With our modern transportation and communication advances we have gained the ability to rule the planet with sensible rules by a single and permanent world government, and then we could gain the peace and good will amongst our divided ethnic national populations that our present efforts have failed to accomplish. As well as preventing the competition between nations, we also must endeavor to reduce the friction and competitions between individuals and groups that are presently driven to oppose each other within the boundaries of our individual nations.

The natural forces of nature drive us as well as all other species to compete for survival, and our ancient survival values which encourages the doubling of populations continually reduce the earthly resources available, causing mankind to become more competitive in retaining the use of them. In order to remain popular and in power our political parties and national leaders in sating the greed and demands of their supporting groups provide laws, and regulations, that discriminate upon the less influential minorities. This practice causes additional competitions within a nation, and amongst its citizens for an economic and prestigious advantage over each other: creating the various social levels within a nation, and the never ending expense of campaigning and holding periodic elections in the democratic portions of the globe.

The leaders of most nations are persuaded to subsidize the teaching of the major religious denomination of their area, which promote harmonizing social ethics and services to the needy. In newer settled areas that are peopled by migrants of mixed heritage, the properties and profits of all religious groups are not taxed, to prevent discriminating and to avoid any political rivalry by their congregations. These subsidized teachings tend to overshadow the discoveries and truths of our scientific investigations that are not as well promoted, and as a result, the people of the world are dumbfounding themselves, and fail to realize that they can overcome the expense and injuriousness of their earthly competitions. Instead of promoting the spiritual beliefs of the ancients, and the survival values of the planets divided societies that are driven to use increasing amounts of the planet's resources that deteriorate its environment, we must teach the public that the influences of nature can now be overcome: so that we can guide our civilization toward peace and plenty. Our hunger for food should not be to get obese, but to maintain a healthy weight. Our urges for sexual fulfillment should no longer result in an increase of numbers, but to maintain a healthy balance between human population and the amount of earthly resources they require for their needs and wants. Only then will not national military needs or limited world populations be driven to overuse the many environmental altering materials they do at present, and our reduced needs may even allow us to leave large portions of the globe unoccupied for the preservation of other species.

There are many ways that individuals and groups take advantage and bully each other in business dealings, and in influencing their governments to favor them with laws, regulations, and economic advantages. Such of a discriminatory practice is common in both democratic and dictatorship regimes that cater to the supporters that keep them in power. A worthy and long lasting world government couldn't discriminate amongst the planets population and survive, but with plentiful earthly resources available for all to prosper by their own efforts we shouldn't need or wish to subsidize some at the expense of others, and it should become unethical for our new government to do so. It is not the government that should equalize our income in a none-socialized world, but parents and relatives would be free to assist their friends and loved ones to the extent that they wished and could afford.

Many will enter into marital relationships and provide their descendents with the means that supported them, others may not do so, but our government will no longer be in the business of supporting the portions of the population that cannot provide for themselves in virtuous ways. Family and cooperative groups that are industrious and supportive of each other will replace those that are not, thereby, upgrading our new society's solidity and worthiness. We must improve our prospects on this planet to the level of our intellectual ability, for our species can become free from the past and progress into the future by abandon the promoted spiritual beliefs that have provided the power of numbers and populated the earth to excess, and replace these mystifying teachings with the wisdom to rescue humanity from the competitions that nature imposes upon them. Humans are the only species that have the foresight and ability to do this, and by guiding our civilization toward desirable objectives: we relieve ourselves of the pains that nature unwittingly imposes upon all others.
