Mankind vs Humankind

Dr dear Dr: What is the point of rising through the ranks at work or school, if man himself is declining as man, if the man-world of the unfeeling machine as we know it is being altered in favour of compassionate and sensitive women?

Woke theology forbids us being too Gloom and Doom about such questions from flocks in Glastonbury, except to say that Arnold in his early outing at the cinema on this subject End of Days took an interesting view about the end of mankind as opposed to humankind, contending that it is always and everywhere, or at least for some time now, the project of the darker residents on the planet, and here one is not talking about the Novum Greens at Cop26 campaigning for what the skilled anglican philosopher at Oxford, Lewis, called The Abolition of Man, but that the dark side has long campaigned at regular intervals for the large-scale extinction of large portions of the human race, considered by them as late-comers and usurpers on the planet surface above them all down there much in the manner of the spine chilling science movie Pitch Black. Nicholas Cage too in his own science fiction Hollywood outing Children of Men explores the idea of the end of the male side of the human race and the end of ordinary biological child-birth through women as the planet moves more and more toward sterility. This second movie is a science fiction movie but it is a projection into the proximate future since it is based on real data about declining fertility rates among human males. Apparently, males are losing the race into the future - Evolution which now produces no tusks on elephants in Africa is also telling against the survival of the male of the human species.

All this despite the recent call on a video from Cop-26 from the Novum Greens for couples to double down on the entire concept of children since they leave large carbon footprints and have literally become far far too expensive to raise, a stark warning, but apparently based on data recently released from a Big-Tech Firm that the average single child from the ages of 0 to 18 costs about $500,000 to raise, so the Greens are more and more teaming up with Melinda and Bill and advancing the argument for global abortion for most natural childbirth mothers. Nigel Farage the successful campaigning ex-UKIP politician himself on his programme at GBN had occasion to renew the warning from this sector following the philosophy of the Rev Thomas Malthus in his essay foretelling the problems of over-population leading to the outstripping of the food resources on the planet, in sum that over-population is now a serious serious problem on the planet and one that is itself the main cause of the climate change carbonisation of the atmosphere, as populist leftwing governments in China and India and Korea struggle to keep their voting populations happy and fed and warmed in winter. So above another science fiction movie that discusses the trends in the data up to the present time, projecting then askance into an uncertain future for the majority of the human race now living, and especially for the future human race coming to birth. Other movies also send signals to the uncertain future for humans and for males especially such as Logan's Run and its Song for Carousel, plus Arnold's other outing Terminator in which bio-technics give way more and more to robotics who go out of control one day with the rise of positronic brains and then they begin terminating their own human masters and taking over the planet, like a Cop-26 commercial with a young Redder reddit Greta the Great starting potterite revolutions all over the globe. Plus there are movies like Total Recall about trips to escape to Mars, plus movies like I, Robot on the rise of the soul in bio-technic machines and the issue of murder of humans and the basic responsibility and freedom and culpability needed to commit a serious crime like murder against a human in the future. But there are other books and movies out there that even within the kingdom of biological renewal, moving people from reproduction to replication more and more, these chart the rise of the Evolution question as more and more cases of Asperges Syndrome, moving from 1 in 1000 around 1975 to 1 in 100 in 2005, a huge change over just the past 30 years and which chronicles the rise of Homo Asperges, responding to much technology in the environment, and then on to further developments such as Homo Bio-Technicus. A startling statistic but one to watch in this connection and with these enlightened and illuminating movies to watch in the background. Troubled times if one is an old fashioned anglican thinker trying to reflect on the progress of the human home-world without a copy of the seminal tome, Darwin's Origin of Species from 1859. Not such a great mystery or an imponderable crisis if one is a Malthusian woke Christian, with Malthus in one hand and Gates in the other.
