What differentiates humanbeings from other animals? Is it the fact that they
posess the capacity of being able to identify or distinguish left from
right? Is it because of the languages they speak? Is it because of the
brains they use? Is it because of the vertical position? Or else is it
simply because of their ability to predict the future? All animals do
without doubt live through the present and the future during their life
time!
Humanbeings do analyse what they are currently going through and compare
that with what they have already gone through,thus end up associating
variables.


They on the other hand attempt to see through the future.
The ability of being able to see  through the future started when
humanbeings began being interested in agriculture.They therefore gave up
hunting and the gathering of wild fruits for their daily survival,thus
started foreseeing harvesting what farms,gardens and orchards were to yield
after a while.From that point predictions grew up to become more and more
subjective as a result different perspectives and different interests filled
time with what some call A RAT RACE!
Humanbeings were therefore naturally compelled to create languages and use
them for such predictions.Due to the fact that being conscious of the future
was almost a natural obligation thus languages were born to be used for
those predictions that are some times either useful or harmful for our
survival as humanbeings. Its important to know that ancient languages
weren't over loaded with vocabulary or grammatical structures!
Without doubt modern day accademicians are busy ameliorating those
structures and adding new vocabulary to the languages we are using,as
language feeds on environmental ifluences(ie:culturally).

Humanbeings,in order to be confirming some of the promises that future holds
for them thought that it was logical to invent technology.
Some school of thought believes that the word GOD is a concept given by
those humanbeings who have come accross portions that are difficult to
analyse from a human perspective,therefore impossible to make
predictions....On the other hand some of us who have existentialist feelings
cling on to modern day technology and believe that it has unique
answer-magnets!For those who (harbour some blind folded scienctific
believes)the word or concept GOD fades off whenever wishes aren't
granted.Those types of humanbeings have deliberately replaced GODLINESS with
concepts given by what today's society calls "futuristic" analyses indeed
those from laboratories and not theologies!
Therefore expertise is drawn from metereologists,"futurologists",or all that
machines and test tubes can give(which has been completely seperated from
philosophy or psychological feelings).The danger maybe that the end result
of that blindfolded acceptance breeds dry souls!
Although some of these machines touch on both sciences,the physical and the
social ones alike.

For example recently we saw another new discovery on the big screen of CNN
which they call "lie detectors".These detectors are sent to detect the lies
within e-mail messages! Well...such detectors can analyse our writings but
what they lack is how to feel the pulse of the writer/s face to face.Some
lies maybe intended to deviate from the truth for a while only to come back
with a second confusing strategy! That discovery may as well be another
marketing strategy! As a matter of fact we all remember the fever that the
whole world suffered from because of the Y2K threats! Did that cause havoc
in those countries that couldn't catch up?! No! We saw all sorts of
carricatures towards out dated Russian installations but the Y2K came and
went no missile sprang anyway! Didn't we see the American millionaire
successfully fly to the moon,despite the threats from NASA? His will power
has beaten that science via dry souls! Should this or can this e-mail lie
detector replace the machines that conduct MRI tests?Well that is what a
friend asked me yesterday!

To date no machine is capable of predicting when an earth quake will strike
a particular place! Thank GOD volcanoes produce smoke thus allowing us to
naturally know that a natural threat is around....
After all human intelligence produced or produces all these machines and
scienctific analysis. I am soliloquising thus..." Are these inventions for
comfort or chaos?!"
Go to any shop nowadays and give a long addition to either the seller or the
buyer and see what will happen!
Calculators must be there otherwise as the french do say "çela sera une
catastrophe!"
Hmmm...many of us from the "wallaa deh" who have been suddenly exposed to
this labarynth of discoveries or the flowing stream of analysis do not even
care to be in swimming suits some do only plunge in with their dresses
because of being blind-folded....
Ideas should be nourished by conscience!

YEROPULLOH!
