Humanity's Wake
27 Oct 2015Veyder
There are those who highlight the self destructive nature of humanity, they use wars and atrocities as their evidence. Some even use the excuse that cruelty perpetrated by mankind has shaped them into ruthless killers.Humanity has survived for eons and with mankind finding new homes among the stars the likelihood of extinction by our own hand is unlikely.
The famous physicist Stephen Hawking once said,
"It will be difficult enough to avoid disaster in the next hundred years, let alone the next thousand or million."
"Our only chance of long-term survival is not to remain inward-looking on planet Earth, but to spread out into space."
We have achieved both.
For those who choose to become murderers, tyrants and criminals; you are accountable for your own actions. The cruelty dealt to you does not give you any right to be cruel to the innocent.
There are those among humanity who will rise and bring you to justice and preserve peace.
