What human really is, and what humanity's perception of what a human have to be is the topic to be explored in this article.
I will not dive deep into human evolution and try to prove the fact of evolution to chained or middle aged minds.
However, I will point out the fact that we have evolved to be what we are now through the selection of nature and that is how much of a human we are at the moment. The selection of nature could have demostrated limited intention during tis process but that is a complex subject and it is not our subject now.
The Ancient Demand
Humanity practices some form of ancient survival techniques on a macro social structure level, now. Ancient tribal wars turned out to be technologically advanced nation's wars. We, as the humanity are still accepting wars as the natural cycle of human social orders and ecosystem. That being said, all nations have been praying for peace since the beginning of the time.
Religious organizations talk about peace and prosperity. On the otherhand, laws and human rights are there to represent the distilled human values saved throughout the time of human evolution.
That being said, we keepthe statusquo of wars which proved to be cruel as ever and more destructive than before.
This simple and most significant irony of human socialorder challenges the perception and ideologies that we have grown to evolve over the time.
Rape ,killing of sleeping kids and spitting on one's honour is just a daily routine of any war
Ironies is the fact of humanity's order and current reality of humanity is yet to be evolved where we could really call human , a human.
Tarhan GorgunThe Irony
In human ecosystem and orders things are complicated and not so black and white.
Nation's and societies have similar ideal ambiance of living which is peace and prosperity state and each society and each individual pray for it.
The middle age scripts allow killings and wars, and still today our ancient past, crafted by the natural selection, triggers wars due to the animal instincts and wild DNA bits in us.
Leave aside the ancient scripts since today any decent high school kid could write a better version of it. The evidence signals that the ancient DNA's that we carry produces vicious, hateful and protective behaviour in the current order of nations and human ecosystem. These ancient bits of logarithm also creates the urge of forming in groups and outer groups on the macro scale human social order and rules as the reason for blind eyed belief culture and behaviour of human societies.
Since we have evolved to be different species than our ancestors that lived a million years ago, in logical terms and as a fact we are evolving and transforming biological beings.
However, most individuals and human societies will love to protect the status qua. They will make pointless arguments in the subjects of abortion, homo sexuality and may even support the absurd belief that humans were created as how we are today since the dawn of humanity.
Water and Sunlight for the Humanity
What is human?
Human is a constantly evolving consciousness and have to be intentionally dynamic and flexible in order to exists in the universe.
We have learned to tame our ancient instincts on an individual level and with in few selected society orders but not on a global level, yet.
Don't you think it is the perfect time to tame our social order structure? Evolving from national world order to a singular nation order.
Don't you think it is time to invest more in AI tools to improve our leadership and regulation systems?
May be biological engineering will help humanity achieve a higher consciousness level and perhaps reduce the ancient human factor and authority within structural systems?
I think so....And I also think that you will also think so when a soldier knocks at your door or rapes your wife, or a bomb kills your baby angel.
Then the argument will flourish of course. How could it be done?
Do not forget that humanity have been managing to create what has been imaginable. Including god.
It is a good time rephrase what Mr. Harrari said once "Do not take human stupidity into granted" and add the phrase of "capacity also" in to the sentence.
Some science fiction movies of yesterday could be watched as a comedy movie today since we have further improved. Yesterday's fictions turned out to be today's home works.
However, the perception and ideological side of the social structures have been evolving slower than that of technological side of the story.
Personally, I prefer to be a robot than killing a kid. How about you?
The perception of evolving into a higher consciousness is an unstoppable demand of the universe. It is stoppable only by the immature extinction of the species homo sapiens.
The extinction of humanity is also unstoppable , but what we will leave behind to take the lag over will represent our perception of higher consciousness.
In today's reality it is absurd to expect societies to understand and accept revolutionary ideas since most of the humanity behaves as herds.
The higher intelligence with power to manipulate the herds will decide the direction of humanity's evolution. Personally, I do not think any human or group of people have the capacity to rule humanity.
The simple fact of human factor will create suffering for the herds. On an individual level everybody evolved to stand on different grounds and almost everybody could become a part of a herd. This is due to the human factor and the biological logarithm that we have been gifted by birth.
By birth is the term to underline here. We have managed to come to a point of time to be able to manipulate the mentioned term. It is not a day task but it is a task that should and will be worked on.
Human factor in leadership could also be reduced by the improvements in AI technologies which has the potential to efficiently distribute resources without emotional decisions.
I do not think any world leader should decide if your kid will live to experience the life.
