i am not a humanist. for that i have to believe that the human is the center of the universe and the height of construction among the living.
all information we gather about the human show the contrary.
lately we saw a octopuss using a tool. a last refuge for our greatness vanished. we hardly accepted that some apes use tools. now we have to deal with the issue that spineless squids know how to use a tool. what a desaster for a selfcentered being.
being humanist is always used in terms regarding the protection of the human or living. human society showed humans reach their height under danger and extreme circumstances. protected environment lead to mediocre life. he becomes good but not inventive. all great invention that enhanced human life was a invention for war or the asociated industries or craftworks.
is the human the center of the universe. hardly. mathematicly it is possible for developing circumstances that protect or make possible life. it is possible that the life on other places in the universe is much more advanced and the living their are much more advanced living then the human are.
and is the human the most advanced on earth. he has tools so the squid. he has housing so do many living building nests, he has family so do many living and with more care, he has wisdom, we don´t know about the widom of the other living, you can´t compare, and the other living is far ahead it has greater eyes, better ears, greater smell, better taste, more senses electric organs, infrared, ultrasonic sound wave and other senses we know nothing.
turn the page we know nothing.
