When you think of all the whacky future possibilities for the human race what do you hope happens?

Eg, terminator/in time/various space stuff/a world where people are uploaded to AI instead of dieing.

Personally I find it all depressing other than the idea that there's life on other planets to explore and maybe time travel.

I think the invention of hover scooters are the start of spaceships that can go long distances and people need to invest and work on that - that and holiday trips to the moon. There needs to be holiday trips to the moon.

What would you like to see in the future of humans?

@fakable and causality.

Which is greater? The immovable object or the irresistible force? 🤷🏻‍♂️

that which is born must die

@fakable and will reborn. Perhaps not as the same thing. Yet we are all nothing but dust.

@fakable love the song, yet sadly it doesn't go far enough.

Unfortunately Kansas Christian values show up throughout their songs. And Christianity doesn't encourage thinking. 😞

@DeWayfarer
the irony is that all these things encourage thinking and multiply mental noise

@fakable thinking is the gateway to change.

Life is change.
fakable · T
@DeWayfarer
no
the mind orders chaos, but does not change it
DeWayfarer · 61-69, M
@fakable yes, chaos does seem to be like change. Yet change is always progressive over the ages. There is a certain order to change by that.

Does not any sun evolve? Die? And be reborn? Everything changes.

@DeWayfarer
yes
but chaos is unchanging
only the mind changes
DeWayfarer · 61-69, M
@fakable notice I didn't say IS chaos?

Order and chaos go hand in hand. Both evolve

The universe forever expands. Or collapses and is reborn.

kaleidoscope with multicolored glass

you look into it and twist it and you see slender geometric patterns

the mechanism of the kaleidoscope and your mind turn random sets of glass into coherent patterns, but chaos remains chaos
DeWayfarer · 61-69, M
@fakable Yep order in chaos. Yet as well chaos in order. 😊

@fakable just to give further though I believe this song is more appropriate to this thread...

Everything is similar, yet it does change.

@fakable interesting, I frown upon monotheistic view points though.

I am more inclined to believe in things causing changes. Yes I do put change above everything, yet I don't believe it's just only change.

Therefore my beliefs are not really theistic in any way.

Our early ancestors gave what they didn't understand a name. Each different in order to distinguish each thing they really didn't understand.

This methodology just happened to turn into religious beliefs. The methodology is actually appropriate. Can even be applied today. Just not tobe worship as a deity.

The wind is like a god to a caveman. Yet the wind does exist. So is change. Change exist in everything though. Even the wind.

@DeWayfarer

you don't think in legitimate societal stereotypes. that commands respect

you have nothing but mind. all sense of mind is illusory. including sense of change

when the hand touches the face of the host, the palm feels the tactile sensations of touching the face and transmits these signals to the host's brain. at the same time, the palm does not understand what belongs to the host and does not understand the meaning of its work

i am a mechanism for collecting and transmitting signals from a limited segment of the spectrum of reality

collecting and transmitting signals to the master is the meaning of my being

my human consciousness is only for the continuation of this process

everything i know, think, feel, believe, etc. has no meaning for me as a human being

@fakable Oh but I do. In fact I recently made a post to exactly about what you are referring!.... 😁
