For a few years now, I've always thought of the possibility of living in the future. I'm a star gazer, and when I look at the stars they give me just enough hope to one day think that as human beings we will one day be beside our petty (and they are) differences and experience the god like powers we are capable of producing. As the most advanced and intelligent beings on the face of this planet we sure are stupid, think about what or whoever gave us the abilities we have as humans didn't give us any manuals or instuction to handle this awesome ability. The ability I speak of is Knowledge, and the pure thirst all of us have deep inside us. For those of you who are religous, you probably would argue "we have more than enough instruction, why look at the bible?" By I would counter with something to the effect of, what does the bible say about ion propulsion? what does the bible say about virtual "genetic" imortality? In a way it says these things are wrong, and as silly as it may sound, I love the human race, I'm proud to be one, I wouldn't want to be a bird, I wouldn't want to be a bear, because thier worlds are limited to thier enviornment. We, on the other hand have the "God-like" ability or soon will have the ability to talior our enviornment to anything we can imagine. I just think it would be a grand idea to come back, even if it's for one day, just to see how we humans have faired.
