Material Progress and Everything is in a Relationship

from About Relationships

From the very first human being to walk this planet, the scientific principle has been the human beings’ primary tool of survival. Food, humans knew not to eat poisonous plants, no amount of prayer, chanting or dancing up and down will change that fact, the plant will remain poisonous. The mystical stuff is for other things but eating a poisonous mushroom will kill you no matter what. Given what we know the greatest scientific achievement humans can ever do, given that most material progress has been about understanding and mimicking the principles we understand. To mick our surroundings to the ultimate would be to create life. Not the grotesque imaginations of hybrid humans and animals as seen on Egyptian hieroglyphics, or legends everywhere of hybrid creatures. Creating life for it to be a meaningful boast must start with creating a particle, then an atom, then, molecules, then a cell. Then humans can boast we have truly mimicked, we have created life.
