"Deep Space Earth"
Space Station Earth:
Look at any
photo taken from space and the issue is clear.
The first
revealing photos taken from the moon July 1969 over 30 years ago.
We have evidence that modern man has been looking at the stars with dreams
of adventure since his arrival on earth. However, in today’s world
with the Hubble Telescope we see no other blue globe in space, which will
support Human Life. It seems daily we learn of some new threat to man's
survival however; man has become his own greatest threat. For this
reason I feel we need to rethink some basics of social structure.
By no means
do I think I have an answer, this web site is simply food for thought.
Social structure is an extension of the interactions and transactions of
humans to humans and humans with their environment. Law, Government,
Economy, Religion, etcetera, are all attempts to modify the human
interactions and transactions of life. When the outcome of this
modifying results in equality of profit or loss for all, we call this Good,
when the results of the transaction is at the expense of all but the few in
control we call this Evil. We often express life in terms of Good and
Evil; we could say that the definition lays in the out come of the human
transaction be it physical, financial, or emotional, be it within our family
or international affairs of states. When the result of the transaction
is equal for all, this is Good; when the result of the transaction is
at the expense of others or the environment, this is Evil. Evil
may seem like a strong word, however, when one takes unfair advantage of
another or their environment we all pay the price with our quality of life.
Leadership is by example; if we are the leader we have no other choice. The fact that we are the leader is, that others will follow in our footsteps and do as we do. Whatever we call our Government, Religion, or Ethnic group, serves only to identify it, it’s how our leaders behave which, will define it. As a leader of a family group, his or her actions will define the family, as the action of world leaders defines social policies and social structure. It is when our leaders began to think that somehow they are greater then the sum of their follower that social and economic structure begins to fail. No Government, Religious group, Ethnic group, or Business, etc. could exist without a following of willing participants. When the participants become expendable the structure of any organization will fail.
