the problem with humanity is that we are goal driven. we get anxious and depressed when we haven't got a thing to strive for. this is one of the reasons for why perfection isn't attainable: we would have reached the maximum and have nothing left to strive for. utopia isn't about halting progress because we live better, it's about promoting progress so that we may evolve.Bright_Raven said:
then again, i'm just throwing pearls for swine here. as much as i hate to say it, few people would understand what i'm saying here or what is implied. this is why i've lost faith in humanity.
"utopia"... heh...

My utopia is basically the world of brave new world, everybody is happy with there purpose and life has no woes
utopia wouldn't just be a state of society, it would be a state of mind, of everyone in that society. this is actually implicit, since everyone in a society gets influenced by said society.Bright_Raven said:
no, it's not just a dream. but the utopia would not be a constant. it would change; new rules would be established as old rules wane and become useless. creating a society is one thing, but managing the rules is something nobody has done before. just look at the US, you have laws against walking a moose over a street or similar laws which are outdated. the passing of laws should not be bureaucratic process, it should be encouraged. i.e., whatever government would have to say yes to a law (within limitations, of course) and put it on trial rather than just discussing it and doing one final vote for it.
but me talking about this is just one small bit. this is just a puzzle piece in the great jigsaw of an utopia. while each part has its significance, it is only when the puzzle comes together you can see the real beauty of it-- the whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
post: i'm not talking about trolls, because trolls usually don't care. i'm talking about people who put other people down because of other beliefs or disregard of irrelevant rules. i have no patience to talk to people like that, since nothing good will ever come of it.. my time would be wasted. and i don't like to waste time. i realize the irony of this, but i am hoping there are at least some people sitting out there in silence and finding this somewhat interesting. and somehow, intuition has never failed me.
A true utopia could only exsist if everyone in the world were to suddenly snuff it. If everyone was dead then their would be no pain, no suffering, no unethical treatment of elephants. Nothing bad would happen to any human ever. Utopia.
Except we'd all be dead, and all our heavily domesticated animals would probably die, and all the nuclear reactors would eventually meltdown, and the buildings would collapse.savandicus said:
But yeah, your idea sounds perfect.
The Capital Wasteland after Project Purity was finished. "Revelation 21:6. I am alpha and omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athrist of the water of the fountain of life, freely."
