(4,442 posts)Every time man thinks he is smarter than nature he fucks things up. The real solution was for people to CHANGE. For people to realize that the wants of the individual (person, nation, religion...) is not more important than the needs of the whole and that the needs of the moment ALWAYS have consequences (positive or negative) for the future. Man couldn't be bothered to change. Still can't be bothered. So perceived simple solutions, of the sort that got us into this mess, will have their own consequences.
This may not be what GG is suggesting but it is what i believe...I believe that acceptance, for the consequences of our own behavior, at this point, is wiser than chasing our tails with more of the same. WE MADE THIS BED, we will have to lie in it. The best we can do at this point is learn to fluff the pillows.
