It’s not mystical
It’s just statistical

Isn’t it disconcerting being a child of the information age?
What are we gathering information for? For the succeeding generation to compile all of our hard work and reap all of its benefits?
Will we even be able to understand the product of all our hard work?

It is my impression that members of each new generation are raised in such a way as to separate themselves from the proceeding generation. Members of new generations are empowered with tools that were created by, yet un-utilized by their parent generations. Unfortunately only children seem entirely capable of completely adapting to new advancments, leaving adults and even teen-agers stuckin outdated ways, much like the computer you bought last year.

So the paramount of any generation’s efforts are only to install new ways of thinking into their children’s generation. We will never be able to reprogram our minds to actually live by our discoveries. As great as it sounds to be “another link in the great chain”, gathering information for our children sounds very unsatisfying. I think something along the lines of the Age of Becoming has a better ring to it.

I want to grasp my children’s tools, and I want my parents to grasp mine. I want to create something that will stand the test of time, and not only unite me with the rest of my generation, but unite all past and future generations.

Free and pure thought is a wonderful thing. I’ve discovered and learned so much just by thinking quietly, often about nothing in particular. It is in these moments of reflection that I extrapolate conclusions from the multitude of information I receive every day.

One of the biggest problems with the world today is that people don’t have enough time to think. If you have a job it usually takes up a good portion of your day-to-day life and thought processes. Then if you watch TV or play video games (two things that I’m extremely guilty of) you lose another large portion of time that could have been spent thinking. I believe the point of the media in this country is to stifle independent thought. The media feeds people information on a mass scale, it gives whoever is in charge of it the power to insert thoughts into the minds of millions of people.

Everyone take a moment to quietly reflect today.

I have two words for you that completely disprove the “theory” of intelligent design/creationism: male nipples.

Think about it
