I therefore welcome you to the age of the useless man . Modern man - the possessor of absolutely no real skill and worthy art. We spend endless amounts of our time piling and unpiling papers onto desks, little drops of the immense amounts of lubricating oil needed to make this huge bureaucratic machine with heavy gears move. We spend our time literally producing nothing. We are scared by old age and retirement with its big amounts of free time which the human normally would not have while trying to live his every day , to collect the ripe fruit of his garden and to exhume the milk of his animals. Man no more knows how to hunt or leave out in the open , man no more owns a garden , does not collect his own food but has it brought to him. We our provided with the convenience of i numerous useless material objects and gadgets that one day will outnumber us in waste.What will you do great human when all the superficial surroundings and abundant materials of your age seize to work and really serve you. Will you starve in the wilderness? Will you remember how to hide from the great lightning that carries enough energy to turn you into a small pile of ashes and teeth? Will you then realize why the ancient human praised the bearer of lightning as the strongest of all gods?
I ask this because human , your so steady and strong pace is leading you to that huge wasteland and the era of sticks and stones. I shall never forget what the man that gave human the key to his destruction said . Albert Einstein wisely said that he does not know what weapons will the third world war be fought with but the fourth will sure be fought with sticks and stones. We can but thank him for bringing the mutant into existence , the modified beast the cancer and we still praise him as the smartest man of the last centuries. How dangerously stupid can we be? And my answer to him is something else I once read about this day, that the people will be ordered to march to war and they will simply refuse to do so. How much of our history, events problems and mishaps of our times are direct descendants of his own judgment? One man's judgment is enough to form a whole age and to bring all this sorrow and fear to humans.
Useless man, sit there and praise all those beasts who took you every single day of your life the furthest away possible from your mother, the nature.
A human bearing the intelligence a few centuries ahead the dark-age is not capable of holding so much energy in his hands . His knowledge and intelligence do not permit him to use this energy constructively but he is very well capable of turning this as nemesis against his fellow man. All a man should be really capable of is to cultivate his land feed his children and wife and show them and point out to them the love that surrounds them.Still without ever forgetting how to praise and remember the importance and significance of nature in his life. The father today is not by his child , he is stuck in a box with wheels miles away from his house in a traffic jam. The useless human once knew how to make his own house , how to plant his own vegetables how to preserve his own meat without using chemical preservatives , how to help a pregnant woman give birth out on the forests and mountains he has forgotten all this and locked every simple action and skill behind complex and confusing functions and mathematical models.
Modern man you are useless.

Modern man is far more controlled and regulated by nature than we may think. It is true that in the eyes of the layperson we seem to have distanced ourselves from our past dependence on nature by evolving technology that allows to linger in modern and advanced environments but who is to say that this is not happening due to natural laws of increasing complexity.To put it in the words of George Carlin, this gives an answer to the old philosophical question "what are we here for?" "Plastic!"...In any case if we do go extinct that is not really a huge problem, only for us...afterall species have been going extinct long before we arrived and we are just one more on the way out!!
