Caving in
Sometimes you have to wonder what our forefathers would say if they could see us now. As we do, from time to time, they must have imagined what some far-flung future would look like. If they could have done, it’s probably unlikely that they ever would have left their caves at all.
We use our waste products to design new and trendy clothes. We praise bad books and delight in wasting our time on watching stupid movies. We worship violence and fill our Holy Books with porn.
We are obsessed with fame and youth and glamorously thin and naked bodies - yet we stuff our faces with crap, while we torture our bodies in vain pursuits of the perfect form and even our Gods & Goddesses let it be known that they are unhappy with their bedazzling lives.
We ruin everything we touch and then blame our unborn children for the world that we’ve created.
No, it is rather unlikely that our forefathers would have left their nicely painted caves for such a world. They’d probably would not even have left their trees to begin with - or the warm comfort of the ocean.
