This is NOT About Aliens

Someday the world is going to blow up into a million tiny pieces, if nuclear war doesn't do it, then a few billion years later the sun will (provided global warming doesn’t wipe out the whole species before that). One can assume that by then mankind will be advanced enough to travel space, and have colonies or maybe even cities on far away planets, and be time traveling, and have hovercrafts, and blah blah blah. Hell, we might even have alien slaves, or we might become alien slaves (really depends on which race is the more intellectual).

So you must be wondering where exactly am I going with this, and I must tell you, I’m not here to talk about alien abductions and things like that (I’m not that sane yet), I’m just writing about the first thing that comes to my mind.

Now where was I? Oh yes, as I was saying, the destruction of the human race is inevitable, and do you know why I say this? Man by nature is ambivalent and a more intolerant species, they don’t like the idea of things being aberrant, or even disparate from the “norm”. They say one has freedom of speech and thought, and all those amazing rights that one would believe they are born with, but still have to be given by the constitution of a country, but tell me, how often can you use these rights and not be called completely insane? People are castigated for having views separate from the rest of society, and in some extreme cases they’re even isolated.

Homo sapiens happen to be a very dreary race, that and dim-witted. Many great men (and women) have been ridiculed in the past, only for us to accept their theories as more correct than not in today’s time. I say it’s about time people grow up and stop acting like five year old babies throwing tantrums over a silly toy. Being narrow-minded will not help the race, but will only slow down the evolution process.

Ah, unstopped thought.

even if this earth were to break into a million pieces of equal mass, they wouldnt be tiny..instead of ridiculing homo sapiens, you can always look for others who think like you. and if everyone was so very rational and sensible, everyone would start acting the same way, and this world would be a lot boring than it is now.

hi sonam,
loved your blogs. It's amazing how you can say such deep and meaningful things in such a casual (and sometimes very funny) way. looking forward to reading your next post.

Hey..I liked this one simply because of the fact that it appeared random in writing but not in ideas.! How it gradually and subtly drifted into telling us an important message.was really good..and obviously it was funny..!
u know there are a lot of people who think like this..but i guess there are not enough..
