    Perhaps, one component fed by delusions of grandeur?
    A tendency to look at all things as something to potentially dissect(study), adopt(commandeer), consume(meddle with), or assimilate(save).

    "Oh what an interesting distant civilization, I wonder what makes them tick?"

    If we were gods or overlords in this present state, I am sure we would disobey any notion of leaving things be.


    I'd say replicating viruses...don't forget plastic...
    And that too, the by-products of the madnesses.

    It is like sending the contagious out into the well before they have been properly diagnosed or treated.

    to me, its very likely these are not true earth spirits.

    but, not to worry. the whole tangled mess is in process of gettin' untangled on the energetic layer of the cake (ie, that biological weapon is an energy state).

    iow, it is now time for the form of right place...

    Another angle of the point being.

    The first operating theatres, 1 in 3 survive. A few hundred students gathered into the theatre, because it was a theatre, seats up high, so they can see, and spit out their bugs.
    The naivety of the process, that they had no idea of the existence or bugs and bacteria, so wondered why the patients kept dying.
    The example is there for even rocket scientists to see, but they must be too intelligent.

    It is this lack of preparedness and awareness of possibilities and of self which makes one sigh at the aspirations to travel.

    In the beginning of what?

    Perhaps in the creative potential, and after as it might have expressed itself, which may have made mistakes, then may have made corrections and gave room for the narrative to correct itself.

    One would hope that foolishness was not excused nor allowed to repeat because of an excuse of it has existed before?

    Surely a rate of 2/3 chaos and death and failure due to naivety is not a universal constant?

    One can only speculate and project that something was so in the very beginning surely?

    Just my pet thing for the day it seems.

    There was another telling of what it is like out in the universe with what sounded like surety, must have been there?

    Yeah, I got in trouble at school around 12 or 13, saying it seems the whole human race has amnesia.

    If the theory of University of Earth is correct, amnesia may be a pre-requisite. All that people see as unfair or unfortunate, could even be contextual for the chosen lessons. Shrugs.

    Remembering is fun. It reminds one how fun forgetting was also.
    A current current for me. And to learn that sharing memories can expand the recall, as well as potentially cast it to the winds.
    The choice of which, is the method in motion. Pretty surreal.
