WHAT THE MAN IS
There is P-time and U-time. P-time is personal time. It started when you were conceived and it ends when you die. U-time is universal time. It started in this universe at the moment of the big bang and it will stop when all activity stops. I don’t think, at least superficially, this is a particularly hard concept to grasp but it does play hard with just about every religion I’ve ever heard about.
Curious, that.
if you are looking to find the least evolved most tribal people in the world, especially among our so-called leaders (as we are once again seeing at the moment) there is a woefully plentiful number of candidates. if, on the other hand, you are looking to find the calm intelligent rational pragmatists among us there is an unfortunate dearth of them in our time and, I suspect, really, any time in the past.
whether or not we will survive much longer depends on people being willing to identify with no group smaller than all mankind, including the biosphere, with all its varied life that sustains us.
I will leave the odds of that happening to your own imagination. but time is running out.
