Signs of Real Humanity Evolution

Signs of Real Humanity Evolution

We humans spend a lot of time talking about and worrying about and doing stuff that doesn’t really matter in the grand scheme of things. And I’m not just talking about the obvious things, like Real Housewives of New Jersey. I mean stuff that the media and schools tell us is important. Including stuff that I used to think was important – like politics, GMOs, how “big chemical” is poisoning us, the revolving door between government, finance and business, widespread corruption, and how the financial elite continues to fleece us peons. I still think these things are important, because they impact those whom we care about.

But, from a broader, larger, and historical perspective, which party wins the election, what the stock market does, which countries rise or fall, or who wins the war, are, to quote Dr. Evil, “quite inconsequential.” It’s like rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic. Everyone dies and new humans take their place. Every civilization declines and new ones rise.

Where is the evolution of humanity?





It is a mistake to think it is found in science or technology. As much as I love gadgets and the bleeding edge of high tech, products do not equate to the evolution of a species. Cloning, nuclear power, nanotech, and 3D printing are not signs of human evolution. They are merely examples of our ability to control matter.

Nor are medical advances that extend our life expectancy. Does it really make sense that living longer evolves our species in some way? On the contrary, it only causes more problems. Humans now have to compete with an ever-increasing number of humans for limited resources. Instead of dying of quickly of natural causes, we live past our natural life expectancy and instead die slowly and miserably, often without dignity. And the increasing human population rapidly takes away and destroys habitats for countless species of other conscious life forms, as well as using them for cruel experimental medical research, which continues the cycle and only serves to make big pharmaceutical companies even bigger. It is all based on the mistaken assumption that we live in a cold materialistic objective reality. Hardly evolved thinking.

All is not lost however. Despite the war profiteers and religious nuts that contribute to the devolution of humanity, we slowly progress in the right direction. From the Magna Carta in 1215 to the United States Bill of Rights in 1789 to broader recognition of gender and racial equality in the 20th Century, to the fact that homicide rates have dropped by a factor of 30 in Europe over the past 500 years, it can be said that this trend represents positive evolution.

Another good sign is the general trend away from religious dogma and toward spiritual growth. The percentage of Americans who don’t identify with a particular religious preference has grown steadily from 2% in 1950 to 16% in 2010. At the same time, the desire for “spiritual growth” has increased from 58 percent in 1994 to 82% five years later, according to a USA Today/Gallup poll. Why is this a sign of evolution? Because religious dogma teaches you that you are right and they are wrong, while unaffiliated spiritual discovery almost always results in the recognition that love is what really matters.

And finally, my favorite sign of human evolution is exemplified by what India did a few months ago in declaring dolphins to be “non-human persons” with similar rights including the right not to be held captive. Three other countries have similar laws and more are sure to follow. I believe that this, along with a significant trend away from cruel animal practices (think free range chickens, more vegetarians, and the growth of no-kill shelters) is a sure sign that more and more humans are recognizing that they aren’t the only ones with rights on this planet. Truly evolved thinking.

So maybe there’s hope for us yet.

Brilliant Post!

I am glad you liked it mia.

Are you saying Stephen that there is a new population arising in the future or new ideas are arising for the future.

New events are going to happen?    Change in the planet are changing the population?

I have noticed lots of changes for the better.
In one place in USA, there is no discrimination of dog breeds.
Two or three countries have banned GM/Monsanto crops.
There is loads of publicity for marijuana curing cancer.
The public are changing their thoughts and making those in 'power' take notice.
The above may be small things, but it will get better.
There are many more incidents than I have listed above, many more xxx

Changes in the world,Mia.    They are making themselves noticed now....

"Where is the evolution of humanity?"

In the science of evolution sense evolution means to successfully adapt to a changing environment. Humanity changes the environment as well as the natural changes that the earth is going through and then successfully adapts to these changes. This adaptation is called evolving into a more successful species. From a scientific stand point "Where is the evolution of humanity?" is a very interesting question. Because our planet and solar system is in transition, our science is in transition, and our behavior as a species social group is in transition, it is impossible to tell at this point in time where the evolution of humanity is at. Theoretically we have to wait for the dust to settle from all of these things that are in transition and then see who is left alive and how they have adapted to the changes (evolved) before we can answer that question. All we really know at this point in time is that everything is going to be different and that even though there is a loss of individuals, humankind as a species (at least the odds are) will adapt and become more successful as a species and will have evolved into something different than what it is now.   john

Excellent comments.Bill and John.
Thanks.As usual much to ponder
Stephen

try the words

to CASTIGATE

Arbel wrote:We come to this world in order to reach the level of spirituality that is required of us but the problem is we have never been informed about that level when we come to this world.  Evolvement to humanity is what is achieved in wealth; power and greed and also creating life themselves or in other words humanity have declared they have become Gods.  What if humanity has reached this material level before and what is now happening on this earth has happened at least three times before hand.


Three times in the past the Two are One have come together on this earth for a special reason which for myself could very well have been about the earth being  the same then as it is now.  Once again and this is the fourth time that in this time period that Two are One are going to come together once again.


I have had a theory for a long time that we are given say two million years to evolve and if humanity has not evolved then the an ending comes just like what is going to happen now and then we have to start from scratch once again

 Awesome Bill! That was very well said.     ! Love, john

Very interesting Bill.

Good thinking Bill.

Satan's true power is the "Lie" and the "Lie" is what separates humankind into two camps. The camp that chooses to listen to the "Lie" and the camp that does not chose to listen to the "Lie". From there the "Two that are One" harvests the wheat and discards the chaff. The truth of the matter is that Satan is just a tool in the grand scheme of things. No more and no less. john

TO CLEANSE TO CLEAR TO MAKE PURE AGAIN through what seems like punishment

Well I suppose that burning the chaff for eternity could be thought of as, "to clear and make pure again through what seems like punishment". Ok! Just love, john

'but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire.”

kundalani energy....pure spirit form...the quickening of enlightenment

to burn the unneeded, non serving you any more aspects of you, your surroundings, your mind , your home etc

Deep stuff

everything is  a metaphore for another...everything is  a teaching

so much of why so many get so burned  out spiritualy so easily

it Is really  simple once you learn to follow the yellow brick road
