Are We Civilized?
November 21, 2001
Michelle has a great update which I would link but since it’s such a big secret, I can’t (her webpage that is). Aargh. Here’s my opinion. Are we civilized? We think we are but in my eyes, I see ourselves nothing more than a mere species of animal. All our ‘advances’ are just an evolutionary extension of our monkey relatives. Vocal speech can be compared with being able to spray crap out of your ass a la skunks. Opposable thumbs – ability to jump 15 feet in the air. Etc Etc Etc.
We celebrate our superiority and then revel(sp?) in the fact that sometimes we do bad things to each other. So if we were so great, why do we do these things? Thus, we are not great at all. Don’t reply to this because I really don’t want to know your view about this. After all, it’s my opinion.
It turns out I’m adding something else to my 5 Day Campaign but at this point, another assignment is just a drop in the bucket. I get to see my girlfriend in less than a month. Sorry folks, no drinking party this year.
