I have been pondering this thread, mostly because I am new here but secondly there is a blindness to where humans are in the world right now.
The monetary systems of the world are collapsing and the oil we use to feed ourselves has hit its peak. Do you understand that? The next ten years will be nothing like the last ten. I think sometimes we look to the stars and the future because we are ignoring the present. That is the hope junk that all the politicians sell you. We have been dreaming that technology will make our lives better but with close examination we find technology has only made itself better.
The mountain is not sacred to our society, maybe to some individuals with romantic notions, but not to society. Sacredness itself is a childish. It is either all sacred or you are living in the delusion of knowledge. I call you all the Apple Eaters.
Whether or not the telescope will be used for war is a silly question. Of course it will. All our knowledge is used for war. Our society is war. There is nothing wrong with war, just wrong causes for war. It is knowledge that creates war and separation. That was the peace in the garden of eden. No, I am not a religious man, it is another childish notion, but the early christians knew what they spoke of. We forgot. Too many apples.
I have been finding during my breif time here so far is that people in Puna are extremely individualistic. That suprised me and is making me rethink my residing here.
And to those who say I use knowledge so I am a hypocryte; I am a wrench in the machine.
