Every human institution has a guiding mission statement or philosophy. Yet there is no specific global plan for Humanity's future. Without a plan,
happenstance determines destination. Instead of leaving its fate up to chance, Humanity should select its own destination.
Since Utopia is the best Humanity can perceive, Utopia should be Humanity's guiding philosophy. This ultimate philosophy of striving for the
best life possible for everyone, can be one global element of common sense and common purpose in an otherwise complex and fragmented world. Utopian
philosophy can be the goal that unites the world for good and noble actions.
This web site has a modern day trilogy on how Humanity can achieve Utopia. To read any of the three books below, just click on that book. To
read a summary of this trilogy, just scroll down this page. Plus, there are links to interesting web sites below the summary.
UTOPIA & UTOPIAN PHILOSOPHY
Summary of "The Ultimate Philosophy"
Every person has thought, at least once in their life, that it would be nice if there were no disease, no crime, no poverty, and/or for some
other improvement in the Human condition. Since everyone has dreamed of a better world, it is fair to say that Humanity has a common dream. While no
two humans are exactly the same, we are all of one race, the human race, and we all share the experience of life in an essentially identical
carbon-based life-form structure. We all work for continuing survival while in this structure, and hope for a happy, safe, and good life for ourselves
and for our loved ones. Therefore, everyone has a common desire for the best life attainable. "Utopia" is the word used to denote the best life
attainable. Since each person has their own unique vision of Utopia, the only universally agreeable description of Utopia is, "the ability for each
person to live in their own vision of paradise." Humanity should strive to obtain that ability.
Since humans consist of both a tangible physical state (body) and an intangible mental state (mind), the way to achieve Utopia is to find
technologies and methods that fully satisfy both states of human existence. With the right new knowledge Humanity can solve any problem and achieve
any desired result. History has shown that anytime humanity wants to learn how to do something, such as land a man on the moon, the answers can be
found if money and resources are devoted to the cause. Therefore, we should be devoting more resources toward finding the knowledge that will allow
each person to live as they desire.
Human DNA has been fully mapped and now it is just a matter of determining what each gene does so that we can manipulate the same to stop
illness, increase intelligence, etc. Princeton University scientists have already genetically enhanced the intelligence of mice. Aged brains have been
restored to youthful vigor in a gene therapy experiment with monkeys. Scientists have recently created a new life form in the laboratory by creating a
new genetic pattern of a simple organism. Cloning capabilities are increasing. Computing capabilities are going ballistic, and artificial intelligence
seems to be on the horizon. With robots, machines, computers, and other technologies beyond our current knowledge such as nanotechnology, we can have
unlimited production capabilities. With genetic engineering, chemical manipulation, and future technologies we can enhance the mental state of
existence. In sum, with the right new knowledge, humanity can have infinite provision for all tangible and intangible needs and wants for existence,
and thereby have Utopia. If humanity recognized this reality, and devoted more resources toward knowledge, we could accelerate the pace at which we
reach a better world.
The three basic ways of interacting with knowledge, are: 1) dissemination from accessing stored information, through teaching, or from other
methods of communication; 2) use through actions based on awareness of knowledge; and 3) acquisition of new knowledge from research, through
experience, or from other avenues of discovery. Humanity has achieved proficient methods for dissemination of knowledge, and simply needs to better
utilize the same in order to facilitate the use of knowledge. The primary method for finding new knowledge is through research and development. Less
than 2% of current global productivity is being devoted to research and development. Clearly Humanity could and should be investing more in its
future.
Everyone makes a vote as to the type of world we have with their lifetime efforts, and the total of all human actions determines whether the
world is like a heaven on earth or a living hell. Therefore, the pursuit of Utopia can be implemented through the consensus method. The consensus
method simply involves putting a dream into words and spreading those words until a large enough consensus is created to cause positive action by
society. Individually and collectively we must shine the light of knowledge on the darkness of ignorance, until we find our best. If we take such a
path, at some point in the future, Humanity will have a heaven on earth, where everyone lives as they desire.
In sum, since everyone desires a good life, we should make the same a common goal,
and devote some more resources toward finding the knowledge to make it a reality for all.
A simple plan to make a dream come true:
who = humans
what = best life
where = globally
why = self destiny
when = future
how = knowledge
