How Long Can A Human Species Dominated by Ignorance Possibly Continue to Desirably Survive? 

4/28/09 Update: A Consciousness Frontiers Renassiance Person has, substantially, answered the related question, in his blog post MAKE AN END TO BILLIONAIRES BY SQUISHING AVARICE ! 

As I commented to Professor Emeritus Peter Bagnolo:

[Original post here]

As George Orwell wrote: "In a time of universal deceit - telling the truth is a revolutionary act."

Although I do not like the ugly and nasty truths of the particulars that YOU, I, and numerous others throughout human history articulate and communicate, I accept the fact that no truth changes based on whether I, or anyone else, like it, or not. I do, most profoundly, love the benefits derived from knowing the ugly and nasty truths, and acting in accords with 'what it is is what it is' - rather than being my own worst enemy by trying to ignore or deny the ugly and nasty truths that I do not like.

In my experiences, observations, studies, research, intuition/inner knowing, and so on, it is clear to me that any and all attempts to address and solve the individual and grouped symptoms are doomed to fail. Simply because there are far too many symptoms to deal with - with new symptoms and manifestations of the symptoms occurring at an increasingly rapid rate.

Basically, fundamentally and absolutely essential to any realistic hopes, prospects and possibility of healing is the need to laser like focus on the root causes of the vast number of symptoms - with clarity, calm, courage and confidence/faith in the power of personally individual integrity, thinking, actions, behavior, and INNER knowledge beyond academics, and the sanction of the 'official' scientific community.

As long as the majority of the human species continues, for whatever reason(s), to ignorantly FOLLOW, enable and support the crazy, inept, diabolical and destructive world leaders, more doom and gloom for the future is assured - hopelessly believing and wallowing in mental waste, trying to make sense out of nonsense.

"Imagine the people who believe such things and who are not ashamed to ignore, totally, all the patient findings of thinking minds through all the centuries since the Bible was written. And it is these ignorant people, the most uneducated, the most unimaginative, the most unthinking among us, who would make themselves the guides and leaders of us all; who would force their feeble and childish beliefs on us; who would invade our schools and libraries and homes. I personally resent it bitterly. ... To surrender to ignorance and call it God has always been premature, and it remains premature today." (Isaac Asimov)

I AM convinced that my individual best hope, with beneficial practical application, as well as anyone and everyone else, is to continue to increase/expand the Evolution of Cosmic Conscious Awareness of True Identity of each of us being eternal Souls in sentient spirit/life matter forms. The awareness of which is obscured and blinded by the false teachings, distractions, trappings and illusions that we are all, indoctrinated with, subjected to, and have to deal with, one way or another, during our short lived human body incarnations.

"A human being is part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. We experience ourselves, our thoughts and feelings as something separate from the rest. A kind of optical delusion of consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from the prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty. The true value of a human being is determined by the measure and the sense in which they have obtained liberation from the self. We shall require a substantially new manner of thinking if humanity is to survive." (Albert Einstein, 1954) - "The most beautiful and most profound experience is the sensation of the mystical. It is the sower of all true science. He to whom this emotion is a stranger, who can no longer wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as dead. To know that what is impenetrable to us really exists, manifesting itself as the highest wisdom and the most radiant beauty which our dull faculties can comprehend only in their primitive forms - this knowledge, this feeling is at the center of true religiousness." ( Albert Einstein - The Merging of Spirit and Science) -

"God is not separate from the world; He is the soul of the world, and each of us contains a part of the Divine Fire. All things are parts of one single system, which is called Nature; the individual life is good when it is in harmony with Nature. In one sense, every life is in harmony with Nature, since it is such as Nature's laws have caused it to be; but in another sense a human life is only in harmony with Nature when the individual will is directed to ends which are among those of Nature. Virtue consists in a will which is in agreement with Nature." (Zeno, founder of Stoicism, 333-262 BC)

"The religion of the future will be a cosmic religion. It should transcend personal God and avoid dogma and theology. Covering both the natural and the spiritual, it should be based on a religious sense arising from the experience of all things natural and spiritual as a meaningful unity..." (Albert Einstein)

"It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it." (Albert Einstein, 1954) From Albert Einstein: The Human Side, edited by Helen Dukas and Banesh Hoffman, Princeton University Press

"Truth alone is eternal, everything else is momentary. It is more correct to say that Truth is God, than to say that God is Truth. ... All life comes from the one universal source, call it Allah, God or Parmeshwara." (Mahatma Mohandas K. Gandhi 1869-1948)

Call 'IT' whatever - the revolution for evolution has always been and will always be ongoing among sentient Beings on this Earth, and beyond. Hopefully enough individuals of this Earth's human population will WAKE UP, as described in "THE 100th HUMAN," soon enough for beneficial shift in thinking, actions, behavior, and relationships to activate the critically neccessary New Paradigm.

Most importantly, those of us who are awake, aware and alert must continue to do the best we can - all things considered.
