Blind Logics and
Logistics of Modern Society
I believe the modern
society lacks perspective in life.
Good example is
America.
If you look at the
presidential campaign, I am amazed why America cannot find better
alternatives to Trump and Hillary.
Both are out of pace
and reality and living in their own worlds of misconceptions.
There are only two
parties and there is no place for a third or emergence of alternative
views.
Both parties are
bound up with hidden pressure groups and money.
They (pressure groups with ulterior motives) do the
propaganda and the average citizen is lead down the garden path of no
return.
I do not know where the FBI and NSA stand, except for eavesdropping on every human being born or not born yet.
England where the
Mother of Democracy supposed to have originated is getting too much
direction from bureaucrats from Brussels and British people had no
alternative but to say firm NO.
But the three main
parties do not know how to get out the mess and lead the world in
modern politics.
At least United
Kingdom have an alternative party but it is all bickering within the
party to take the leadership or the mantle.
Nothing else!
Come to Ceylon, it
is all about killing the democracy and the opponents and have only
ONE Family rule or dynasty.
We are unable to get
rid of the MONSTER called the elected (by devious means) president.
We have a vestige of
alternative media and most of the others are run by drug and
warlords.
Now with three women
leading the world, we the men folk can say good bye to politics and
start polishing the remaining spirits left in our drums or bottles.
I can assure you
that these three woman will not leave the world in better footing
than when they took over, but even worse.
I hope you got the
picture.
The idea of this
piece is not at all political but to show the logistics part of our
governance, I used politics as a preamble.
The main theme here
is how we destroy the creativity from cradle to teen to coffin.
1. Right to be born
without prejudice is no more.
In this part of the
world female infant (including China) is unwanted commodity and
aborted by default.
In this country the
infant had to be born before December 31 to beat the mad rush for
entry into a National School.
All of them are born
within a single house bordering a National school by one mile.
The statistics
emerging from houses within a mile radius is staggering.
The highest
population density by birth in the entire world!
2. Once born these
kids have no right or choice.
They have to get the
highest grade in the year five examination.
The right to free
education of the choice of the child is negated at the labour room.
Child is sent to
preschool too early to learn a foreign language before he/she could
become verse with the mother tongue.
Do not get me wrong
here, second and perhaps third language are vital for moving upwards in
the ladder of education, in this country and elsewhere in the modern
world.
3. By proper
education one move up the ladder fast and education is the only way
forward.
It is a myth as far
as this country is concerned.
In our parliament
the richest ones have not gone to even the fifth standard.
There school is
local mafiosi and truancy is the gateway froward.
4. If they fail in
the normal mode of schooling, they go to the private tuition.
It a booming
industry for pseudo-educationalists.
5. Let me cut short,
some of them by shear chance get to the university.
My estimate by that
time they have lost all their creativity but loaded with outdated
(usually 30 years) book knowledge.
The bottom line is
that the parents, teachers (most are not trained in education psychology) and specially the religious teachers of all
faiths (they are not taught religion is a blind faith, opium that
hinder creativity and advancement in scientific knowledge) put all
sort of rigid dogmas in their minds from cradle to teen to coffin.
By the time they are
teens we have created JVP activists, LTTE activists and currently
religious activists including ISIS and BBS.
I often have two
very simple question for any inquiring mind.
1. What have you
gain from your religion (except extremism)?
If one say that I
became a good (not right) person.
2. Do you really
need a religion to become a good or bad person?
They are
flabbergasted and do not ponder a philosophical or scientific
question beyond that point.
Neither Karl Marx
nor Einstein got any inspiration from previous dogmas (religion
included) but their contribution to society and to the thinking man
are enormous.
