Saving the Earth?

The PLANET is fine. The PEOPLE are fucked.

- George Carlin


Seriously who are we trying to fool anyway? Save the planet (about 61,400,000 search results)! The earth is sick (about 38,800,000 search results)! The earth is dying (about 18,900,000 search results)! The world is coming to an end (about 259,000,000 search results)! Also the ultimate how long has the earth got left (about 537,000,000 search results)!!
The search result quoted in the above paragraph are as at 9:56PM GMT 08/03/2010 using www.google.com.

All we want is to save our ass from, apparently, the surface of the earth! Wrath of god, the Armageddon, the end of the world, regardless of how we call it, the earth is going to be fine, after the terrible "end of the world". The earth will move on, we wouldn't! Compare to the earth our civilization is way younger then their existence of  4.54 billion years (4.54 × 109 years ± 1%), if the earth sure know how to get rid of the creatures when he doesn't need or like them anymore. He'll just crack his mouth open and swallow them, pressure cook them till they are burnt and solve the energy problem for them coming intelligent being evolved or maybe landed.

For fuck sake, we can't even trace back and have a mutual agreement on how we are here now. Darwin's theory of human evolution were (and still is) heavily criticized by religious people who believe that human are created, by a higher order, god(s). Of course, me being me, I wouldn't fully believe in science either, since if we blindly believe in science, it would be of no difference from religion, as though we are treating the founder of the theory as the prophet. However I still think that creation myth is rather disgusting, taking the most well known myth of Adam and Eve from the Islam, Judaism and Christianity for example, God created Adam, molding him in his own image, and using the rib of Adam to create Eve. In short they share the same Father and worse off, I wonder if it's a God's joke that he made them husband and wife. That's like fucking his own rib! Imagine we human actually started because a man fuck his own rib and multiply, having his sons fucking his daughters, and we are product of such immorally incest practice. Not trying to be a saint, but it's FUCKING DISGUSTING!

Well thank goodness I'm a Chinese,
It is rather striking that, aside from this one myth, China – perhaps alone among the major civilizations of antiquity – has no real story of creation. This situation is paralleled by what we find in Chinese philosophy, where, from the very start, there is a keen interest in the relationship of man to man and in the adjustment of man to the physical universe, but relatively little interest in cosmic origins.





Why should we beautify our lies when we urge people to recycle, to go green to not litter and create excessive waste? Can't we just admit that we are selfish creature and thus change our claims to "We want a clean habitat!", "Save the Humans!", "Save ourselves!", "The human are dying!", "The population is decreasing!", "We don't want to pay those labor worker in the landfill with our tax money!". If we are to make a change for the better good of man kind, start by being a little bit more honest to ourselves, and not telling lies to our children, tell them no the world is not dying, we are, so enjoy while it last, so long as you keep the house clean!

What is lauyeelosophy?

It was a little unexpected that this blog is still up at running after so many years, and definitely a huge chunk of inactivity. Started off with nothing but some personal nags, sharing some of the songs that I genuinely like and their lyrics, and some thoughts that I have no one around me to discuss with, bullshits that I've structured.

Soon I'll put everything into a mixing bowl, sharing lyrics with a structured bullshit story. I wouldn't update it as often as I'd like to but for people who like reading, I'm sure you wouldn't be disappointed.

Yes a picture is worth a thousand words, but it wouldn't be as entertaining as a thousand words for sure.


Sincerely yours,
lauyee
