Creating a Critical Mass of people who understand our culture is flawed at its most foundational level is the key to saving the world. Our world is full of terrible problems like poverty, war, terrorism, crime, and many others that have been with us for millennia and are apparently not going away any time soon. Many patchwork programs and cursory fixes have been tried on these problems over the years. But the reality is, these terrible problems are never going away until we address the very root cause of why they continue to plague us millennia after millennia. Much like the weeds in your yard, unless you pull them out by the roots, they are going to grow back. The root cause of all of these terrible, never-ending problems is at the very basis of our culture. Our culture tries to tell us that the world was made for man to conquer and rule, when the reality is that man is just one of millions of species that has evolved over billions of years from simpler versions of itself. Man is not separate from the Community of Life. Man is a part of the Community of Life. In order to fix all of our terrible problems, we need to reject our flawed and doomed culture that is based upon the fallacy that everything is separate and replace it with a new culture that is based upon the reality that everything is connected. If we want to save our world, we must collectively resume our roles as Responsible Members of the Community of Life on this planet.
