Realizing the Biosphere: 1. Spirituality for the Anthropocene (w/ Layman Pascal)

[@humber121]

Fascinating ideas!

Great conversation. As an organ of the biosphere my vote is: let's sporulate. Why so many people view sporulation (space colonization stuff) and biophilia (environmentalism stuff) as mutually exclusive is beyond me. As a lover of complexity I think panspermiating is obligatory.

the individual is a human construct and only a small link in the larger biological, species, cell, dna, etc. features and systems of life. as the author says, we need new stories and awareness of 'us'

we're retreating from our conceptual integration w/ nature at the moment and vomiting all over it, but, nature has an amazing capacity to consume as well and redistribute on scales of millennia and beyond ... but for humans, their capacity to create pain may prevail in the short-term

Or science has made products with surplus demand, unlike your guest's surplus imagination. So, unethical people exploit this fact. What he is trying to exploit is beyond me but it ain't ethical.
