I assume Satan thought God wasn't ready to run the world. "He doesn't
know nothing about human nature --he thought-- so I tempt these two
idiots --Adam & Eve-- and they will take a bite."

And the Devil was right, God didn't have a fucking clue about human
nature.

They are trying to look better than the Devil, but not smarter than
their own god.

Or maybe they look neither good nor smarter.

Oh well, say for ignoring climate change while promoting

Right, the end of the species, nothing else.

Well, we have as much right to live here as monkeys and cockroaches.
At least they have the common sense not to overpopulate an area with,
say, 100 roaches per square foot.

It seems all religions "borrow" from older religions, but monotheism
is the worst possible nightmare.

Well the overpopulation effect is multiplied when droughts and plagues
affect the crops (as it will surely be the case with climate change)
and then we'll have famines, war and more immigration to the rich
world, which is already burdened.

Then Jesus will appear out of the blue... ;)

SUV people really LOVE people, particularly the oversized ones with

That's what they call "TOUGH LOVE."

Funny thing is America pollutes and Holland goes underwater.

Well, Holland is a bicyclist's paradise, probably the only one in the
civilized world.

"Freedom" to sit in a cage, drive a cage, get fat, get sick and NOT
have health insurance is rather a poor record for "democracy."

I hear the government in China actively seeks feedback from the
people. It seems they worry more about revolution than our own elites.

Then is REVOLUTION --or the threat of revolution-- the magic word that
makes good things happen?

I use such word where the Christians use "Armageddon."

Armageddon is far more destructive than revolution, I hear.

Right. You know in the latest Time Magazine comes an article about the
Chicago Mayor, a DEMOCRAT, and how he's taking a TOUGH stand on crime
and failing schools, and guess, what both the LEFT and the RIGHT
attack him for what he's doing. He's NOT taking the easy path his
predecessors took --which got them reelected everytime-- but he says
he's doing whatever is necessary to fix Chicago.

It's similar to NYC, which has managed to clean up the city and create
a sophisticated lifestyle --you may say European-- and it may serve as
a metaphor for America. Again, the mayor --another DEMOCRAT-- is
attacked from the left and the right, which perhaps is the fate of
those who want to fix things up. Democracy is more than bullshit and
whatever people wants to hear.

Now I'd like to hear where the Conservatives has made at least a
similar effort, or all they do is retired behind the safety and
isolation of gated communities?

Well, wake up to reality, people can not live like that. It goes
against human nature.

But that's only my humble yet sophisticated opinion.

A beer, I like that idea!

I shall have a beer on my way back in my urban hiking adventure. I'm
overlooking the beach, I can take a plunge, no need to fight mad
drivers.

And I carry 20 lbs on my backpack, so I'm ready for anything. But I
rather relax. I promise to ponder about the big questions, such as why
people hang on to the rat race. The SUV, the beachfront apartment are
not worth so much evil. People must come out and take a walk or ride a
bike in their communities, or else you only got gated communities.

Let's embrace revolution and have a beer!

You are saying CAPITALISM is bound to fail, right? Well, it's
endangering the planet and its people but it provides a certain
happiness as measured in Scandinavia and maybe even France. In Holland
you have an option to pollute or not pollute. And France has this
efficient use of nuclear energy.

Do you have any country in mind that provides an option? But, of
course, we can do better than any other country with the
revolution. ;)

And it's not only a matter of poverty but widespread gated communities

Oh no, they should earn what they get. Everybody must pay back to
society. NO FREE LUNCH AND NOBODY GOING HUNGRY EITHER.

Well, and the poor will have free healthcare with doctors brought from
India. I hope they have a surplus so their own people don't go without
healthcare. You know they have a system of castes similar to America.

Exactly, that's the point. A hardcore democrat is coming to town with
the determination to change things. It's not what wins votes but it's
what can make Chicago a liveable city like NYC.

Well, letting things fall apart would be sad. All the "rust belt" is
sad.

Our beloved elites sent the jobs to China and now they are gathering
rust, so to speak. NYC city though --being a liberal bastion-- did
something smart:

They made the old decaying city liveable again. Of course, the
conservatives would never do something like that because they hate
people. Right?

And you forget frisking. Guess what, crime is way down. I know the
extreme left and right are bitching about it, but people are happy.
I'd say they are even more happy now with the bike sharing program.
Notice NO PUBLIC MONEY! Everybody happy, right?

I wonder if the Right has ever put together a similar Utopia. Well,
they are not friendly, but you know, whatever Utopia. Gated
Communities?

I don't know. They may be smarter than many humans because they follow
their COMMON SENSE, but as far as abstract thinking, I don't know.

And contrary to what capitalism preaches and practices, dogs don't
live in a dog-eat-dog world.

They rather like to play and lick each other.

Well, I'm just saying that the dog-eat-dog is neither practical nor
based on fact.

Part of human nature is socialization and play. Then a new philosophy
is needed to replace the myth. Do we include the elites in the new
philosophy? Perhaps they believe in a dog-eat-dog world.

And guess what, they are our masters.

Sorry, "my dogs and I." They add a dimension of reality to my
thinking. The old maxim "I think therefore I am" is debunked. The dogs
are just happy playing. That's why the purpose of life is to have fun
and philosophize because we are not dogs. Notice I say "dogs" because
a dog alone doesn't have any meaning. They are a social species just
like us. (Monks are being called into question.)

Monkeys are playful too so I got my metaphor right.

Well, that's what schooling is all about: Replicate human beings
capable of working "within" the system. Any question is out.

I'd never take advice or listen to a man who lives in luxury. Is that
why the Buddha gave up his palace and his title?

Don't get me wrong, Prince Charles is a nice man dedicated to his
organic garden. The problem is the capitalist pig.

Why the dogs must be happy with the food I feed them?

Is it quality or price? To be honest I look for both. No artificial
coloring is needed.

Are our masters aware of our needs? Deep, deep question.

No matter what you country is, no matter what your pedigree is (if you
are a dog), we all have an issue with the master. I'm a revolutionary
monkey!

Imagine we are all fed this food loaded with sugar and we don't even
have a chance to roam free and burn those calories. Yes, the very act
of walking or riding a bike becomes a revolutionary act, so we got
nothing to lose but our chain.

Anyway when our masters hear this, we may be able to get better food.

One interesting issue is what enlightenment should include. I think it
must include:

1- FRUGALITY --never scarcity,

2- SPACE --to walk or ride a bike,

3- GOOD FOOD --tax junk and subsidize healthy food,

4- GREEN AREAS --no trash lying all over the place,

5- SAFETY --nobody should live in fear to come out.

Spirituality is also part of any solution, not to be confused with
religion.

That's the subject AND the whole story...

‘When he woke up, the dinosaur was still there’

http://blogs.rediff.com/pgr/tag/augusto-monterroso-shortest-short-story-the-dinosaur-latin-american-fiction-pgr-nair/

That's a story by a Latin-American award-winning writer know for his
"animal stories." Why do you need to say more? The dinosaur was still
there! What a genius!

I think we know what he means, right? That stupid dinosaur won't go
away! This is certainly a subject for philosophers.

I've been observing my dogs and I can tell that not all dogs are ready
for freedom. They need the chain. But perhaps through a process of
training and education they can learn behavior that we the masters
deem necessary. For example they may get "lost" or "crap" all over the
place, such as it's the case in my community.

Are our masters listening?
