Chapter 47: Chance or Necessity of Civilization (2)?
Seeing this, many readers may ask, since it is said that super intelligent beings created humans, then when did they create humans? Why did they create humans? Why did they abandon humanity on Earth?
As researchers of the ultimate history of mankind, we must answer these questions with the best of our thinking ability, no matter how difficult it is, in order to make everyone no longer confused.
According to archaeological evidence, humans first appeared in the Great Rift Valley region 250,000 years ago. Of course, these fossils are only the remnants of ape-like skeletons, and it is not certain whether these fossils are the bones of human ancestors, so we can only say that the earliest human ancestors may have been 250,000 years ago.
The earliest fossil evidence that matches modern humans is that of humans found by archaeologists in the area around the Indonesian island of Java. According to scientists, these fossils are very similar to the skeletal characteristics of Asian yellow people, and according to C14 scientific determination, the fossils are dated to 108,000 years ago.
The above evidence suggests that perhaps super-intelligent beings went through a very long period of time in the creation of human beings, which was from 250,000 years ago to 110,000 years ago, or 140,000 years. At present, scientists' scientific analysis of the human genome shows that the genes of the black race are the simplest and the oldest, followed by the red race, the white race and the yellow race, this genetic analysis shows that perhaps the super intelligent creatures first created the black race, and after tens of thousands of years of survival tests, the super intelligent creatures created the red race on the basis of the black race gene, and so on created the white race, and finally created the yellow race, and the yellow race is the ultimate version of this human creation.
Scientists' research shows that all living things on the earth lack evolutionary evidence, and they seem to have suddenly appeared on the earth and preserved the genes and life characteristics of the creatures to this day, and human beings are the same. At the same time, the research results of scientists show that carbon-based life is the best way to build life in the material world, and carbon-based life can exert the best efficiency in energy and material metabolism, and consume the lowest energy and matter. Carbon-based life can build the material basis of advanced consciousness and thinking, and can make life have superb thinking ability, wisdom, creativity and behavioral ability. At the same time, the living environment of carbon-based life belongs to the medium and low energy environment, and the elements such as hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon, phosphorus, and iron required by carbon-based life are common in the universe, so it is relatively easy for super intelligent organisms to build carbon-based life and its living environment, and perhaps the earth's environment is also the result of the transformation of super intelligent organisms.
All kinds of evidence suggest that the earth is likely to be a carbon-based life testing ground and gene pool created by super-intelligent beings, that is, super-intelligent people. These Homo sapiens may inhabit somewhere in the universe or in the spirit world, and they decide how long they stay on Earth depending on how well they work on Earth. In the early days of their arrival on Earth, due to the heavy and complex work tasks, there were a large number of super-Homo sapiens who lived and worked on Earth for a long time, so they left a lot of historical relics. In the later period, due to changes in the earth's environment or the end of the work tasks of the super-sapiens, the super-sapiens gradually left the earth and returned to their homeland.
For as long as the history of mankind began, super-Homo sapiens have become extinct on the planet. Did super-Homo sapiens abandon humans and the planet? This question is really difficult for us to answer, maybe after the super Homo sapiens created human beings, they have been stocking human beings without asking, because the super Homo sapiens created human beings only for the purpose of their scientific experiments, they just want to let life survive and develop in the natural environment, so as to obtain the most powerful, most perfect, and most efficient carbon-based life gene series table, and then they will take these gene series to other cosmic environments to create a new life system!
Of course, super-Homo sapiens are supposed to teach life skills and science to humans, and they do so only to test their ability to know, understand, think, and create. Super-Homo sapiens have absolutely no idea of cultivating human beings into super-Homo sapiens, otherwise human beings would not have struggled in ignorance and barbarism for a long time, and struggled step by step towards civilization.
In fact, the attitude of super Homo sapiens towards human beings, just like today's human beings treat robots, super Homo sapiens will not let humans surpass themselves in terms of thinking ability and behavioral ability, they do not want to create opponents and enemies for themselves, but they will choose some humans with high IQ and emotional intelligence to be their labor and assistants, so that they can complete their work tasks better and easier.
These human beings, who live and work with the super-Homo sapiens, record the way the super-Homo sapiens live and work, and record the sporadic stories of the super-Homo sapiens era. In some ancient scriptures of human beings, many incredible and magical stories, scientific methods and data are recorded and other non-human actions, such as "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", "The Book of Luban", "Yin and Yang Studies", "I Ching", "The Tripitaka of the Male Elephant", and "Mayan Scriptures". There are also many historical relics such as ancient scientific documents, temple sculptures and murals. Through these cultural phenomena, we can see the knowledge and skills that super-Homo sapiens once taught to human beings in linguistics, philology, philosophy, astronomy, biology, medicine, aeronautics and astronautics, mathematics, physics, chemistry, metallurgy, materials science, mechanics, architecture, etc. According to the research of scientists, the ancient scriptures and literature we have listed above involve very high-end super knowledge, technology and manufacturing processes such as life science and technology, quantum technology, electronic technology, laser technology, electromagnetic technology, automatic intelligent manufacturing technology, spacecraft technology, immaterial testing technology, immaterial materials and equipment manufacturing technology.
In the era when humans and Homo sapiens coexisted, because humans were still in a state of ignorance and ignorance at that time, and their ability to understand and learn was also very limited, it was impossible for the indoctrinated human members to understand all the knowledge, opinions and stories of Homo sapiens correctly and record them clearly, which led to many ancient scriptures being obscure and even ridiculous! Thus most of these scriptures and literature were discarded or burned down as falsehoods and superstitions by later cultured people!
Today, human civilization has developed to a very high level, which has led many people to think that it is only the result of the teachings and guidance of super-sapiens and gods, but this is not the case. From the perspective of the history of human development, human civilization has experienced a development process from scratch and from darkness to light, and all the achievements of human civilization have been obtained by human beings through hard work and paying a huge price, so we should be grateful to the ancestors of mankind who had foresight and heroic struggle, and thanked those heroes who were in a tragic environment and still loved life and sacrificed themselves for beautiful ideals! It is they who make us human and civilized people, make us no longer humble animals, make us masters of life, and become transformers and conquerors of the material world.
We believe that all human behaviors and civilizations are derived from human pursuits and dreams, and the essence of pursuits and dreams is demand and satisfaction, demand is the cause of human behavior, and satisfaction is the best result of human behavior. Human pursuits and dreams are the only source of motivation for human behavior, so as long as there are needs, pursuits, and dreams in human consciousness, human beings will work hard at any cost.
In terms of human needs, there are two levels, the first aspect is material needs, that is, human needs for material conditions and living environments such as food, shelter, and security, which can also become physiological needs; The second aspect is spiritual needs, which are human beings' pursuit of life values such as happiness, freedom, equality, kindness, public welfare, and justice.
The physiological needs of human beings are determined by the nature and instinct of human life, so even if human beings do not have ideological and spiritual pursuits, they can work hard for food, territory and mates like ordinary animals, which is the fundamental reason why humans and creatures can survive and continue. In human society, there are still many people who still live and struggle at this level of need.
The spiritual needs of human beings are based on life experience and experience, as well as human beings' full and thorough understanding of the world and the essence of life, and after human beings fully understand the results of life such as happiness and suffering, gain and loss, life and death, the spiritual pursuit is immediately generated, and the intensity and durability of spiritual pursuit surpasses material pursuit, and spiritual pursuit is manifested in personality and moral traits such as detachment, retreat, selflessness, altruism, and public service.
Therefore, the spiritual needs of human beings are the main source of motivation for human beings to move towards civilization. Human history proves that races and nations with a high degree of civilization must have races and nations with rich spiritual pursuits. A person who only pursues eating, drinking, and physical pleasure cannot be a noble and civilized person.
In the early stage of human development, the material and spiritual wealth possessed by human beings were very limited, and the reason why human beings were able to burst out of the extremely harsh natural environment of the last ice age, the courage and strength of "earth-shattering, crying ghosts and gods" was basically due to the strong survival instinct, material pursuit and spiritual pursuit of human beings.
In order to solve the problem of hunger, human beings must find ways and desperate to obtain food, and in order to obtain food resources, human beings must inevitably seize the land and the animal and plant resources on the land, and bloody struggles are inevitable. Only after the material needs of human beings are satisfied and guaranteed will human beings have the conditions to develop and intensify their spiritual pursuits, thus pushing human civilization to the track of prosperity and development.
Human beings are the most wonderful phenomena in the universe, and human beings are not only able to see clearly tangible substances and phenomena, but also can see through and understand the essence, cause and effect, laws and other spiritual essences of substances and phenomena. If human beings do not have this subtle, systematic and super-strong ideological consciousness, human beings will live like ordinary animals, relying on their innate and naturally cultivated instincts and instincts, without life goals and meanings, only animal physiological feelings, desires, pursuits, pleasures or pains.
Since human beings have a complete and powerful consciousness, they have begun to realize that the self is an independent and real existence in nature, and they are constantly thinking about the differences and commonalities between themselves and all things, among which they think about the question the most: What is the meaning of life?
Nature and instinct give meaning to human life, that is, the original meaning of human life is to overcome hunger and cold, to obtain food and clothing; Pursue happiness and freedom to achieve a sense of well-being. The original meaning of life is completely based on the physiological and material levels, but after human beings form a complete and powerful ideological consciousness, human beings give new meaning to their lives, and the pursuit of life security, curiosity and curiosity, and the pursuit of spiritual happiness and freedom have become the main components of the meaning of life, and the content of human civilization has been sublimated.
The original meaning of life is determined by human nature and instinct, and the civilized meaning of life will continue to develop with the improvement of human understanding of the world and understanding. The definition of the meaning of human life determines the core and form of human values, and thus determines the way human behavior, the composition and operation of family and society. The universal principle of the meaning of life has led to commonalities and differences in human civilizations around the world.
Driven by primitive values, in order to defeat hunger, human beings first used resources to obtain food through gathering, fishing, and hunting, and kept warm through caves, fire, and clothing. The primitive forms of happiness are all kinds of feelings that bring happiness to the body, that is, love and all kinds of comforting and happy feelings; Freedom in the primordial dimension is freedom of movement, freedom of food and clothing, freedom of love and freedom, freedom of leisure, and rest.
In the harsh natural environment, it is not easy for human beings to meet their own primitive needs, and even in today's highly developed technology and society, it is not a simple matter for human beings to solve their own primitive needs. Of course, the ancients had to endure more pain and blows and pay a greater price than humans today when it came to satisfying their primitive needs.
The development of human civilization originated from the pursuit of life security, since human beings have a complete world view and values, they have understood life in this life and the next life, at the same time, the ancients have realized that any life is a process of birth, old age, sickness and death, in order to obtain life security, food and clothing alone must not completely solve the problem, and other help and means are definitely needed to be human beings to obtain satisfaction and happiness.
Humans start thinking from this point of need, and they realize the importance of maintaining interpersonal relationships, raising offspring, and cultivating helpers. This life is always over, and in order to solve the problems after death, human beings begin to shift their attention to the next generation and the future, which is the spiritual foundation of the family and society.
If the problems of this life are solved, human beings will begin to think about the problems of the next life, and the problems of the next life are the quality of life of the deceased in the underworld and the future way out after death. Mankind's thinking about the afterlife, which is the ideological basis for all religions, has also led to the fact that human beings, especially the wealthy and privileged classes of mankind, prepare for the next life in this life, and they will do all kinds of things in this life to please the gods, and prepare their next life, the tomb or mausoleum, in the hope that their next life will be secure or better.
Because this life is always separated from the next life by yin and yang, no living person in this world has really been to the underworld, and no one has ever seen the soul, so the ancients were always anxious about whether they would be guaranteed in the next life. Deeply anxious about the future, and at the same time objectively dark, uncertain, and unknown, in order to obtain reliable solutions, human beings have fully unleashed their curiosity and desire for knowledge, and pursued a higher level of happiness and freedom, such as spirituality. These high-level thinking and pursuits have led to the transformation and sublimation of human worldview and values, thus promoting the development of human civilization to a higher level.
Today's thinking about this life and the next life is very different from that of the ancients. Many modern people no longer think of the grave as an incubator and abode in the afterlife, and even if they no longer believe in spirits and ghosts, they are still seeking the way to eternal life.
On the material and life levels, science has clearly told mankind that everything in this world must come to an end when everything begins again, and that eternal life is only the assumption that the process of things is infinitely extended, and that there is no real eternal life in the material world.
But human beings are also wondering if there is a factor outside of matter that can construct souls and ghosts, mysterious beings and things that cannot be seen or touched, that are omnipresent and omnipotent? Of course, so far, humanity has thought about this issue and still has not come up with anything! Perhaps, in the distant future, human beings will still be ignorant of this issue, but human beings feel that they will not give up thinking and working on this issue, because eternal life is the most important part of human beings' ultimate pursuit, and if human beings give up the pursuit of eternal life, it will lead to the collapse of human values and the interruption of the development of human civilization!
In order for everyone to have a clear, complete and accurate concept of civilization, it is necessary for us to conduct an in-depth discussion of the nature and definition of human civilization.
First of all, civilization is the antonym of words such as ignorance, primitiveness, barbarism, and selfishness, so the essential meaning of civilization is the comprehensive meaning of awakening, perception, knowledge, truth, and altruism. That is to say, if human beings only have ideological consciousness, only self-centered and selfish views of good and evil, that is, values, and human beings only think and act according to their primitive nature and instincts, human beings will only be more ignorant and barbaric than animals, and human beings will only be uglier than all animals. Civilization does not base the happiness and joy of the individual on the sacrifice of the interests of others and groups, otherwise civilization will be lost.
In order to better grasp the value standard of civilization, we need to establish a civilized evaluation system. We believe that the connotation of human spiritual pursuit can be divided into two parts: humanistic pursuit, that is, humanistic index, and scientific and technological pursuit, that is, scientific and technological index, and we can take humanistic index and scientific and technological index as a value scale to measure the height of civilization.
The humanistic index of civilization is the understanding of the meaning of life such as life, good and evil, self-interest, altruism, equality, justice, gratitude and compassion, and the external manifestations of the humanistic index are modesty, diligence, self-interest and non-harm, concern for the environment and others, enthusiasm for social welfare, service to the community, equality for all, adherence to and maintenance of the right path in the world, sincere gratitude to the society, conservation of resources, sympathy and help for the weak; The scientific and technological index of civilization is the degree of human understanding of nature, material, life and conscious phenomena and objective laws, the ability of human beings to obtain and utilize natural resources to maintain their own survival and development, and the creativity and supply power of human beings in order to meet their own material and spiritual needs. These two indicators will allow for a better and more objective evaluation of human civilization.
After historians and anthropologists clearly divide human civilization into Eastern civilization and Western civilization, we find that the development and achievements of Eastern civilization with Chinese civilization as the core in the field of humanities are much higher than that of Western civilization. In the nearly one or two hundred years of development of the Western civilization with European civilization as the core, the Western civilization has risen up to catch up and surpassed the Eastern civilization in the field of science and technology, resulting in a sharp increase in the sense of superiority of the Western world, and the emergence of Western civilization completely negating the Eastern civilization and attempting to replace the Eastern civilization in an all-round way. However, in the field of humanities, Western civilization is still in a barbaric state of selfishness, contempt for public power and public interests, and advocating private rights and interests. Due to the lack of humanistic elements in the core of Western civilization, Western society has been in a state of division and war for a long time, and it is difficult to have a long-term social peace. When the scientific and technological shortcomings of the Eastern civilization were filled, the Eastern civilization immediately burst out with a powerful driving force to lead the world civilization to all-round prosperity and stability. Today, oriental civilization has once again become the yearning and pursuit of people all over the world!
In a helpless state, human beings in this world of light and darkness, right and wrong repeatedly alternate, stumbling to today, no matter whether human beings are satisfied with this development process, human beings can no longer repeat the past, human beings can only face the reality with sincerity and awe, all people with social responsibility should have a good look at the future of human beings must go through, this road is dark and deep, full of dangers, if human beings can not overcome their own desires and delusions, this road is the end of human dying struggle.
As long as the dreams of human beauty and goodness are never exhausted, the power of human civilization will be infinite, and the freedom, happiness and eternal life of human beings will be endless!
