RE: The Global Tribe

Yeah, I know. To me it is really puzzling seeing all this destruction and hatred when people are part of the same species. I love my family and love friends and strangers, and all living things. Obviously, there are bad people out there. However, these exceptions should not dictate how we operate. I believe we CAN transcend our "animality" and use our intelligence, but according to Chomsky and others, intelligence it is proving to be a lethal mutation

Sort:  

When the plan has been and continues to be to divide people but creating a false enemy there can not be harmony. We can not love and hate at the same time.

The lack of emotional intelligence is destructive. We all know the horrible feeling we have when we ignore our own EQ and continue on the spiral of self destruction.

A possible starting point would be to develop our and our children's EQ before pressuring them to have an outstanding IQ.
Just a thought.
What do you think?

I like this idea. Our growth is heavily dependent on our social context and surroundings.
