500 YEARS FROM NOW

If the human race survives for the next five hundred years, and I think that's truly iffy, one wonders what the archeologists of that time will think when they dig us up. Imagine all they will see. What will they find? How will they explain our existence?

 

When we today look back on human's early days, we see astounding things. We sometimes laugh at how early humans saw the world. We are often amused by their reactions to natural phenomena. Do you think they worried about the temperature of the earth or the level of the ocean, though? I believe they appreciated warmth when they were cold and moved to higher ground when the water rose. I doubt that they wasted a lot of time worrying about things that were totally out of their control. 

 

In this column I will try to show some of the nonsense that identifies us and these times. How about the idea by some that humans have more than two genders? Obviously we have males and we have females. They were put on the earth for a purpose and that is to make more humans. What exactly is the purpose of "transexuals"? Even though they call themselves males and females, their purpose on earth is fuzzy at best. 

 

When future generations see our art, what will they think? When they uncover a Hunter Biden masterpiece will they mistake it for a kindergarten art project? Or, is that an insult to kindergarten art projects? 

 

How about our music? What will they say when they hear rap? Even worse, what about Justin Bieber doing Christmas songs? 

 

What will they say when they examine the politics of these days? How do you think they might try to explain that voters, with full knowledge, elected an individual to serve as president with the mental capacity of a ten year old? Will they laugh at us the way we laughed at the antics of people we study in our past?

 

They will see a country that had everything going for it who started listening to alternative ways to govern. That introduced leftist, Marxist philosophies which ultimately tried to destroy America. 

 

I am certain they will be amazed that we gave the media the power to control so much. They might hear the name George Soros, and they will probably wonder, who was he and who gave him so much authority?

 

I can only hope that, first of all, we survive as a people for five hundred years, and that we get back control of our country so that we can. I recently saw a poll that showed 66% of those polled felt we were going in the wrong direction. The amazing part of that poll is that 26% found we are going in the right direction. Hmmm. Who in the world are those people? 

 

There is a price to be paid for stupidity. There are consequences for bad decisions. We can only hope that we take advantage of our free elections to get rid of the morons and put sane, intelligent, functional people back in charge. The archeologists of the future will know if we made the right decisions.
