"This is the essence of human evolution upon Spaceship Earth. If the present planting of humanity upon Spaceship Earth cannot comprehend this inexorable process and discipline itself to serve exclusively that function of metaphysical mastering of the physical it will be discontinued, and it's potential mission in universe will be carried on by the metaphysically endowed capabilities of other beings on other spaceship planets of the universe."
"The Great Pirates did run the world. They were the first and last to do so. They were world men, and they ran the world with ruthless and brilliant pragmatism based on the mis-seemingly 'fundamental' information of their scientifically specialized servants. First came their Royal Society scientific servants, with their 'Great' Second Law of thermodynamics, whose 'entropy' showed that every energy machine kept losing energy and eventually 'ran down.' In their pre-speed-of-light-measurement misconceptioning of an omni-simultaneous - 'instant universe' - that universe, as an energy machine was thought, also to be 'running down.' And thus the energy wealth and life support were erroneously thought to be in continuous depletion - originating the misconception of 'spending.'"
"Next came Thomas Malthus, professor of political economics of the Great Pirate's East India Company who said that man was multiplying himself at a geometrical rate rate and that food was multiplying i=only at an arithmetical rate. And lastly, thirty five years later, came the G.P.'s biological specialist servant, Charles Darwin, who, explaining his theory of animate evolution, said that survival was only for the fittest."
"Quite clearly to the Great Pirates it was a scientific fact that not only was there not enough to go around but apparently not enough to go around for even 1 percent of humanity to live at a satisfactorily-sustaining standard of living. And because of entropy the inadequacy would always increase. Hence, said the G.P.'s survival was obviously a cruel and almost hopeless battle. They rand the world on the basis that these Malthusian-Darwinian entropy concepts were absolute scientific laws, for that was what their scientifically respected, intellectual slave specialists had told them."
"Then we have the great pragmatic ideologist Marx running into that entropic-Malthusian-Darwinian information and saying, 'Well, the workers who produce things are the fittest because they are the only ones who know how to physically produce and therefore they ought to be the ones who survive.' That was the beginning of the great 'class warfare.' All of the ideologies range somewhere between the Great Pirates and the Marxists. But all of them assume there is not enough to go around. And that's been the rationalized working hypothesis of all the great sovereign claims to great areas of the Earth. Because of their respective exclusivities, all the class warfare ideologies have become extinct. Why? Because science now finds there can be ample for all, but only if the sovereign fences are completely removed. The basic you-or-me-not-enough-for-both ergo, some-one-must-die tenets of the class warfaring are extinct."
Worthy of reflection, and inspires new approaches to the current narrative of excess, waste, scarcity and greed. While he did not account for population growth, global warming, the gyres of endless plastic, etc. he highlights some repositioning of our memes toward making humanity work toward the goal of all systems to serve 100% of humanity based on possibilities of abundance in his earlier book, Ideas and Integrities where he states
"The entire world's industrial resources are now preoccupied in serving only 44 per cent of humanity with the advancing standards of living exclusively provided by the world's progressively enlarging and integrating industrial networks. Making the world's totally available resources serve one hundred percent of an exploding population may only be accomplished by a boldly accelerated design evolution which adequately increases present over-all performance per units of invested resources. This is a task of radical technical innovation rather than political rationalization. It is a task that can only be accomplished by the world's architects, inventors and scientist-artists."
