What do we want? Do we wish to remain as individuals of our distinct races, proud of things, incidents and phenomena we call 'culture', use to distinguish ourselves from others unlike us, instigate discretion of each of our kind from the other, and create factions of people rivalling one another by virtue of their pride towards their 'heritage'? Or do we wish to integrate every one of our species into a single homogenised unvariable kind with no individualistic distinction, masked by a mutual appreciation of each of our similarities as a mark of our favour that that the next person is just like ourself, without disparity or inconsistency? Out of morality and the political correctness which is the hallmark of contemporary thought, we say we want a balance of both. Humans can be so stupid.

To be honest, I don't think any human being in this world know what they want.
We want everything, but we know we can't have everything. Yet we try to get everything by achieving that particular 'balance' that you mentioned. To humans, maintaining that 'balance' is their road to achieving everything, the whole and all.
You and I both know that.
Then again, this is simply from my point of view. =3
Don't think too much of these things, they serve you no purpose but to just mess with your head. Live life with simplicity. =D
and therefore having said all these, what's your thought on the matter? which'd you prefer to distinguish what ISN'T stupid?
good blog, btw. i'd be happy to link you :)
Thanks for the compliments. My thought on the matter is simply that humanity is going nowhere fast, and we're pretty much confused, not knowing what we want, and are spiralling downwards to our own inevitable sticky end due to our own dubious and imperfect practices borne out of our own illusion of intelligence.
