3:26 "This whole purpose of life has been to pass on what was learned, and there is no higher purpose." An awesome quote!

[@crxdelsolsir]

Except those that do not wish to pursue the highest purpose but extract the highest financial value in life. Since our society is built on money and money is the currency that can be transformed into almost all things that one person cannot attain in a lifetime. Hence you get these self interest driven, power, monetary motivate individuals that does not, will not and will actively hinder the passing/sharing of knowledge to the detriment of everyone just to satisfy their own limitless/endless forms/insatiable desires.

[@FiltyIncognito]

The problem with 'highest purpose' is that it wasn't purposeful. It just happened by sheer coincidence of interactions creating a more-or-less self-propagating, containing and preserving thing. It's just things running into each other until something more complex comes out of the event. And behaviors are just more complexity. They helped those things to survive and propagate further. The only difference now is we have more advanced (but not sufficiently so) cognition and an environment that's changing too fast. I mean if we're gonna be real, we're just yet another species that's become too successful. But contrary to our predecessors who failed at food source sustainability, we're the first to wield as much power to cause change as we do, and to think and talk about it to the degree that we have. We're in a delicate balance of an increased power, overpopulation, and self-sabotage, which ever so slightly favors survival and propagation for several generations. But it's tenuous because, like our predecessors, we lack sufficient self-awareness and self-control to prevent trapping ourselves in a death-spiral. We're still too much the 'brainless' emotionally-directed animals, performing the outcome of whatever natural selection coincided with. If we out of the bullshit we're in, we're going to need some more rolls of Darwinian dice and hope, for our descendants' sake, that it's neither a total game-over outcome or another eventual forced re-roll. Read 'A Canticle For Leibowitz' for an uneasy laugh.

[@crxdelsolsir]

@@FiltyIncognito There is a truth to the saying in the movie that passing on knowledge is the higher purpose for survival as that is what has happened in a phenomena we call "insticts" aiding survival. Only man has gained a conciousness to record, share and actively pass via education what was previously just intrinsically gained. Hence mans accelerated exponential improvement in just the last couple of centuries vs millenia's before that.

Elon Musks idea of direct communication to and from brain cells combined with computers running AI, or some other method, isn't as important as knowing what that would give people who had access to it. Look at where you're reading this, and look at the impact on people and society this tool and access to the information has had. Idealists would point out how much it could accelerate human advancement, but science fiction like "The Machine Stops", written last century, tells of the possible human loss such a system could inflict.

@@Wednesdaywoe1975 What makes us human is our Creator that the plot ignored, and even denied. It presents an alternative that appeals to the uncritical mind bereft of independent thinking.

[@scottmatheson3346]

@@musicinspire1745 you are projecting. And claiming that what makes us human is our "creator" misses the question, since the "creator" supposedly created a lot of things that are not human.

[@musicinspire1745]

@@scottmatheson3346 That's flawed reasoning, but I'm used to it from others.

[@BrokenNeuron]

I can see what she says is true. The more knowledge you get, the more you outgrow primitive emotions. In fact, emotions are what keeps us from growing to our full potential. We get worried, or scared, or hurt by events or people, and it stops us from doing what we need to do to advance and learn. Greed makes us stay at a lower technological level instead of harnessing everything we can to advance ourselves. If you cannot make money from it, it does not get done, even if it helps everyone on the planet. People have such potential if they would just grow up.

[@MrHorsepro]

"The more knowledge you get, the more you outgrow primitive emotions." I tend to agree with everything you just said. In addition, I have learned that as I age, now 75, that I care less and less about what other people think of me either socially or intellectually. And since our emotions are simply a cognitive reaction to societal judgment, then it follows that as we age, we become less emotional and more pragmatic. That is assuming that I am typical of most men of my age progression. I feel confident that I am, but that is obviously a flawed self-assessment.

Its only a figment of some screen writers imagination..........don't read more into it than that..!! LoL..

[@MrHorsepro]

@@jb-xc4oh "Its only a figment of some screen writers imagination" Your observation of the obvious is impressive. However, we are engaging in a few fanciful imaginings here for the sake of conversation. And the screen writer's fertile imagination is what started it all.

[@jb-xc4oh]

@@MrHorsepro Your own fanciful imaginings are also obvious but far from impressive or profound.

[@MrHorsepro]

@@jb-xc4oh And they were not directed at you, now were they? Doesn't it feel a little awkward inserting yourself into a conversation where you were not invited? Or is it just a burning need for social recognition that drives you to do that?

@Dj For life exactly, it was a theme through out the movie and portrayed very well by Scarlet.

[@waveman0]

@Dj For life emotions can be a burden and debilitating for many of us. I also think intelligence is always a good thing, many of us could do with more of that.

Everything is linked with emotion. She is always acting on emotion. She just has perfect control over it.

The difference between knowledge and wisdom. An important concept today's generations should heed. Access to nearly our entire 'stock' of knowledge at the click of a button, tools now approaching true Artificial Intelligence levels of functionality, but it simply begs the question 'what do I do with this?'

Fun fact: you ARE using 100% of your brain, just not at the same time. It would be like using 100% of your muscles at the same time. Basically an epileptic seizure..

[@SisilKabir]

True, but when you consider the implications such a theory could have, no matter how far fetched, the possibilities are literally endless, aren't they? We have not yet discovered the extent of human evolution, or even figured out where or what we will become next; we only know what we have become from the past. Evolution in mankind has been ins stages, as science clearly lays out and each stage is influenced by certain factors that are almost always connected to massively global changes, such as environmental impacts. The concept of using 100% of our brain ALL the time and not be rendered into a bag of brain matter smoothie, is tantalizing.... studies of the human brain have scratched the surfaces of what appears to be hidden characteristics, "powers" if you will, that the brain has, which we have not yet discovered, other than mild and faint hints of it. That's why this movie makes so much sense; because it doesn't show anything that is ridiculously impossible; instead, it showcases varying stages of evolution as mankind has evolved, with increasing AWARENESS of existing powers previously undiscovered. Thoroughly enjoyed this....

[@capnskiddies]

She can control other people's bodies, stick weapons to a ceiling, create "forcefields", control many forms of energy. I'd say if she gave you a jump, not only would it be the most thoroughly ball emptying orgasm, but you would feel it all over your body and all through your brain while at the same time she could make you experience that as often & for as long as suited her. In short, it would be transformative. You'd be left as a dribbling idiot in a vegetative state.
