why make things more complicated?

Once upon a time, water was water. You could drink it. You could wash things with it. You can't stand on it.

It's molecules are 1 part oxygen 2 part hydrogen. And then I ask myself why did it have to get more complicated?

The more that a human being "understands" something, the more he makes something complex. Now, i ask myself: Is that how it's supposed to be? Is there no way to understand something by making it more simpler?

I guess that's why fables and parables are so popular. In simple words and simple stories, one would realize a multitude of ideas. No, noone would explain to you the workings and the math of how it works. It is so simple that you simply know what you need to know.

Man has this endless pursuit of knowledge. And i think that the reason it is endless is because the more you know, the more you need to understand.

But what if this pursuit of knowledge is just an illusion? Like two mirrors facing each other. If you try to look for then end of it, you'll never find it. But you never needed to. There were just two mirrors.

Wisdom or Knowledge? Well for me i choose wisdom. Wisdom gives you a better life. Knowledge ,although it can make you rich, ultimately only complicates life.
Both of them are endless, but i think one of them is just pointless.

For the longest time, I was a firm believer in Darwin's theory of evolution. Survival is for those who are the fittest. But then the science of ethics comes into my life, and then it shatters my belief. Survival of the fittest? WTF!?!?

Survival of the fittest. Every man for himself. You scratch my back I stab yours. All is fair in love and war. Nothing personal, just business.

Interview with Hitler: Why do I kill? Because I can. I am the fittest, and only I will survive. Until a new alpha-male comes I will destroy whom I please.

Well, yeah, I suppose in Darwin's theory he wasn't really specifying humans, so i don't think he had the human lunacies in mind.

I recently watched the first "Matrix" movie and i came upon the more convincing theory of how man came to be. It comes from my favorite character in the movie, Agent Smith. Humans are viruses.

What an insult to viruses! Viruses only propagate and spread because that is all they are. (to my knowledge) If viruses could choose not to infect, would they still?

Human pride. Human ego. In the novel K-PAX, aliens refuse to disclose knowledge of light energy to the human race because they KNOW that they would only use it to destroy themselves. And when you think about it, how very true that is. All the knowledge and discoveries in the past millenium, however noble the causes of their discoverers or inventors, were in some way used to destroy life. That is just so screwed up. But then again, the one who kills with the scissors is "fitter" than the one who just cuts paper with them.

Survival of the fittest. What the screamin f*ck.
