Idiosyncratic Ideas

I find it utterly hilarious how people act like Plenipotentiaries for God, and keep a straight face in the process. I don't care if you're Muslim, Catholic, Evangelical Christian or Hindu, saying you know what God wants and are empowered with the ability to negotiate deals on his behalf is something you should be locked up for. It seems to me that anyone with a brain would understand that God isn't stupid, and consequently would never delegate power to these degenerate opportunists with fancy clothing from centuries past. Another thing that blows my mind is that we are very likely going to fish the oceans to the last fish, slaughter all the great herds of both land and air, and turn the all fertile land into a farm in the next couple decades. I'd advocate population control, but this would require people acknowledging a one world government, or using their brains before they use their genitals, which is far less likely than the former. Humanity's three companions- plague, famine and war- are proving unable to keep pace with the people proliferation, so a remedy must be found to alleviate hunger. The only easy and ready made alternative I see is cannibalism. It would be a panacea for so many problems on this planet that I think the time has come to drop the cultural stigma and get cooking. A strange thing for a vegetarian of many years to advocate to be sure, but it seems the only possible way to avert turning the whole planet into a human hive. Seeing as how genocide and starvation are the inevitable consequences of overpopulation, cannibalism is a rather humane alternative. Just as you can donate your organs if you die, why not those meaty thighs or succulent ribs? We are going to see more Rwandas and Bosnias if something isn't done, mark my words. I've always thought it a great injustice to see fat people amongst the poor emaciated masses, this will forever solve that. All I'm saying is that with mankind's seemingly infinite capacity for the grotesque and cruel we might as well try to make such behavior practical and environment friendly. The only people to ever officially escape being conquered in the New World were the Amazonian Head Hunting tribes. Living deep within the impenetrable jungle they kept their population from adversely affecting their surroundings by requiring everyone who wished to be called a man to first go get the head of another man from a different tribe. If you wanted to get a wife, you had to take anothers place, and thus was their population stable and their culture durable. Of course when the Brazilian Government finally outlawed the practice and starting putting them on reservations it has been a shit slide into oblivion for the these once proud warriors whose jungle is quickly fading into memory. It seems clear that the primary obstacle impeding the progress and development of the human experiment is an uncontrollable fear of the unknown. We are creating new problems every day, but seem to think new solutions aren't equally important. Sort of in the same vein as those impostures who speak in God's name claiming that He wants us to be subservient narrow minded dimwits instead of living up to our full potential.
