Much has been made about the human animal, and its purpose upon this earth. Whether it be spiritual or secular, personal or societal. The issue has been discussed ad nauseum, and we are no closer to finding the answer then we were when we started. Until today. Sitting down, it occurred to me that method for solving this problem was actually quite simple. The problem was not that people were incapable of finding the answer. The problem is that people didn't want to find the answer. In truth, the answer has been right in front of us from the very beginning.
Let me explain. Every tool upon this earth has a purpose. A hammer is used to beat down and remove nails. A clever craftsman can find other creative uses for it, of course, but its core purpose, it's raison detra, is to hammer nails down, and pull nails up. Every aspect of its design reflects this. The handle allows us to grasp and swing the tool. The blunt piece at the front allows us to apply force. The back allows us to create leverage, and remove nails. Furthermore, while some hammers may look different from others, fundamentally they share the same principles. Human beings are the same. To understand the purpose of humanity, we must ask ourselves two questions.
1) What is the ultimate purpose of our bodies, as they are designed?
2) What do all humans have in common, regardless of our other differences?
When we look at our situation from a practical perspective, the answer becomes obvious. Human beings exist to produce shit. Who can truly understand the strange alchemy that occurs within our stomachs? It is a miracle of life. Like a factory, our purpose is to consume raw material, and convert it into feces. All humans shit. A human can survive without purpose, joy, or meaning. A human does not need art, music, religion, or culture to survive. These are superficialities. But a human that cannot shit, ceases to live. Every aspect of our being, from our mouth, to our stomach, to our bowels, to our anus, exists to create shit and put it into the world. Our hands allow us to grasp food, so that we may continue this process. Our feet allow us to search for resources. Our minds and higher level of intelligence allow us to create greater stores of food, so that this process can be expedited. And yet, if you took away a living persons limbs and higher level intelligence, the fundamentals would still be there. They would still produce shit as long as you gave them food.
Now, I know what many of you a asking. Fox, how can you be sure that the purpose of humanity is to create shit, and not to consume food? Perhaps the shit itself is actually the byproduct to our true purpose. But this is mistaken. No matter how much you eat, there is always more. The sun creates energy, which grows plants, which are eaten by animals, and then converted to shit. Furthermore, humans cannot consume everything on this earth. Other animals exist to eat other types of organic matter. Humans are only one part of a larger ecosystem of shit creation. The purpose of most intelligent life on this planet is to create shit.
Now, I do not pretend to know what the purpose of shit creation is. Perhaps it is its own reason of being. Maybe our creators made us for this purpose, and forgot about us. A tool without a craftsman. Or perhaps there is some greater cosmic purpose we do not understand. Regardless, we will not find the answer by turning away from the truth. The sooner we accept this reality, the sooner we can set out on the path of knowledge. Some people will be scared of what we have to tell them. I am well aware that society is not entirely ready for our message. They will scream at you, and say things like "stop shitting in my cadilac Fox, you fucking barbarian. This is the third time this week, and I have work in the morning." This is what its like to be the tip of the spear. To bear the burden of truth. But it must begins somewhere, so let it begin with us.
