ARE WE SO DIFFERENT FROM STONE-AGE MAN?


~ARE WE SO DIFFERENT FROM STONE-AGE MAN?~



Thinking independently without
any programming of our mind;
letting go all that was fed to us
since we were a new-born child;
becoming a free thinker with
perfectly pure logical mind;
we need to think about ourselves
and the whole world around us.

The first thing that we see around us
are nature and natural order
in a totally chaotic world.
The theory of chaos is interesting
which explains how order can
exist in a world full of chaos.

I am not going too deep into that.
I want to explore the relationship
between nature and ourselves.
Our existence is a result of natural
circumstances beyond our control.
The distance between Earth and Sun
gave suitable circumstances for
life to flourish on Mother Earth.

Too near would have been too hot
and too far would have been too cold
for life to start and flourish on Earth.
We have no control over this factor and
in the future change in this distance will
take away the life given to us.
Nature gave us life and nature
may take it away from us and there is
nothing we can do about that.

The human mind is clever and tries to
fix problems and Nature can pose
too many problems to count.
The stone-age man tried fixing
problems by worshipping Nature,
giving all kinds of names to it and
by praising it and offering gifts
as a sacrifice of animals and even
Human beings to please Nature
to avoid getting burnt in lava or
getting eaten by wild animals.

We might think they were so silly
to strike a bargain with Nature by
praising and bribing to have their
wishes fulfilled but the question arises-

"Are we so different from the
Stone age man?"

The answer is, "NO";

with one exception- sacrificing human
is against law and sacrificing animals
is considered barbaric but still happens in
some parts of the world.

A common thing exists between us
and the stone-age man and that is
"Praising and wish to please to change
the course of nature and its effect on us."
