Samsung

A few months ago a coworker bought a marvelous computer, calculating time zone times around the world in contrast to where one is at now. It calculates sunrise and sunset times, and play great video.

I have never gotten over my shock about how facile, liberally and smoothly the modern American seems to handle the latest generation of technology on the market, and yet continue to live so bestially and crudely as an intelligent animals. Ho do we reconcile these contradictory axioms?

How can we have and embrace the most technology on the market, while remaining so savage and backwards socially? It is just how we are.

This paradox is the human condition, so what are we to do. How do we lead good lives in light of this internal conflict?

First, we move from group-living to individual living.

Second, we adopt the faith of Mavellonialism, and what this entails is that we continue to love technology while individuating, which allows us to live as civilized, advancing creatures.
