What we Think of Ourselves

When we think of ourselves, we have to realize that we are many selves - and we are getting more of them (and more complicated ones) all the time. 

The typical response to this, is to decide to not think about it, at all. The problem goes away, instantly! 

Except it doesn't go away - it gets worse. 

The world is getting worse, something we can recognize easily enough - but instead of being horrified, we rejoice! Because this means the End Times are approaching - when everything will be destroyed, and rebuilt properly. 

I have covered a lot of ground here, in a few paragraphs. And I need to go over them again. 

We have become an over-developed society - and that always leads to a collapse - one that is going on, right now. We don't have to wait for the End Times, that will never happen - there is an huge adjustment going on right now! 

A new kind of person, a new kind of society, is being built - beginning with a destruction of the one we have now. 

This is not an intelligent destruction, however - quite the opposite. It seems to think, the worse it is, the better the end result will be. 

The basic attitude here, began two thousand years ago, with the Crucifiction of Christ. Something that never happened, but was the basis of Christianity. Something bad had happened - and, as a result, many more bad things, were going to happen - and could not be prevented. 

Not everyone believed this. They\didn't see why everything had to be destroyed, or anything had to be destroyed. Why not make things work, instead? Why not be constructive, instead of destructive? 

Allow me to return to my statement, that we are an over-developed society. This seems obvious, but what does it mean? It means, an economy based solely on the pursuit of profit - is no longer working. Other objectives, other values, must also be considered. 

This is reasonable, but people are not being reasonable - they are being religious, in many new religions.
