just saw this shit on the internet thought it was profound as fuck:
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is all very simple.
There is no god, Humans evolved.
Humans die and upon death they cease to exist.
It is in Humanity's best interest to avoid death for as long as possible, preferably forever.
Death can and will be avoided in the near future, it is only a matter of gaining the necessary technology.
If death cannot be avoided (as is the case today) it is prudent to at least preserve the brain for rebirth at a later date (cryonics).
Humanity's main goal is to develop a center where the best and brightest work constantly on the research needed to develop technology
which will keep us from dying and technology which we can use to preserve the brains of those who die in the meantime.
Once Humanity has achieved the technology to stave off death forever we can get to work on our second most important problem besides:
1. Resurrecting the dead.
2. Housing unlimited people.
3. Others.
That problem is happiness; constant happiness is biologically impossible due to the way our brains work, we will need to rework our brains so they
feel the ultimate rapture, happiness and pleasure that they can, every single second of our eternal lives.
Once this has been done we can get to work on understanding everything about the universe and beyond if there is such a thing. Essentially we will
attempt omnipotence and it is achievable for us as a species.
Once we have achieved omnipotence we may be presented with new problems and issues which we may have to face, such as:
1. The prospect of the universe (and therefore Humanity) ceasing to exist in some way.
2. The plights of lesser creatures.
3. Others.
At that time we will deal with those problems to the best of our (now incredible) abilities.
This should be the future of mankind, it should be our destiny.
We have been blind to our purpose for too long, let us unite and begin work on our paradise immediately.
