Life is a fascinating experiment, mainly, for as Einstein said, reality is an illusion, albeit a very persistent one; in other words, our reality, namely, nature, is an illusion and what is the illusion, that it is? – its illusion is its repetitiveness – apart from the fact, that everything literally pops in and out of existence, but the illusion of nature, is the same sequence: day turns to night, which turns to day etc. summer turns to winter which turns to summer etc. year turns to year, month turns to month – it seems, like we are in some kind of cruel groundhog day movie – but the truth is, another consciousness shifting reality is taking place; but like nature itself, it happens so slowly you can’t see its progress – you see, let us see how the majority of the world sees the world today visa-via, from the beginning of civilization – today, I think it is fair to say, that the western civilization sees the world in what’s called the Judeo-Christian ethics – namely, that morality must be our primary concern – we all may have different definitions of what is moral, but the fact is, we all agree morality is the foundation of civilization.

This simply wasn’t the case when civilization began – people had absolutely no concern for what was – all they were concerned about, to the extent of even sacrificing their children to their perception of gods who would grace them with more abundance, was, their selfish ego and instincts.
However as time progresses, people began to change.
Mainly because of the influence of the Jewish people and the Bible, and the Bibles basis of the two major (in terms of populations) religions; Christianity and Islam – the notions of rule of law became a common denominator to civilized countries.
