Re: Is it that humans aren't smart enough or is it just inevitable? As the Constitutional Convention was ending in Philadelphia in 1789, a town matron met Benjamin Franklin and inquired as to what had been wrought. Franklin replied, "A Republic, madam, if you can keep it." Franklin, Adams and Jefferson all knew very well that just as soon as the people could vote themselves a corrupt claim on the public treasury that the U.S. would fail..... "America is at that awkward stage. It's too late to work within the system but too early to shoot the bastards." --Claire Wolfe

<Is it that humans aren't smart enough or is it just inevitable?> I think humans give their tool of intellect... or ability to think WAY too much credit. IF you go buy your gut, your wisdom mind, your wide angle lens, or whatever you want to call it, then much of the demolition of the planet becomes obviously that... it doesn't need intellectualizing using the same old models, that's how we got here in the first place. One never solves a problem using the same paradigm that got one INTO the problem. I think we're getting close though: crystalinks.com DAK
