ive been thinking. in a thousand years from now we wont need internet. everybody can read or "grasps" each other's mind. hence no more university and colleges. no more capitalistic economy. prisons and law enforcements cease to exist. no point for hate or anger.
i mean, this kind future is inevitable. we are just at the beginning of the Information Age. whether we believe it or not, we WILL end up somewhere eventually. provided the level of our technological advancement keep on at constant pace and no apocalypse war or destruction in the future, we will reach there. the fact is, it is the destiny of human. its the purpose of humanity. to be Gods of our minds. we are here on the purpose to infiltrate space with ideas and thoughts.
conciousness is the grounds of all being. eventually we will pursue knowledge without any INTEFERENCE . if we can do that, we will manifest knowledge in reality. all of us one day will reach the level of avatar we have read in history, the buddhas the jesus etc. we are all connected at the "neuron" level, its just that we dont know it yet.
what do you think. or am i just stoned?
The scenario you mentioned reminds me of the Borg in Star Trek. Everyone is mentally connected to a collective, the hive mind and everyone reads each other like an open book.i mean, this kind future is inevitable. we are just at the beginning of the Information Age. whether we believe it or not, we WILL end up somewhere eventually. provided the level of our technological advancement keep on at constant pace and no apocalypse war or destruction in the future, we will reach there. the fact is, it is the destiny of human. its the purpose of humanity. to be Gods of our minds. we are here on the purpose to infiltrate space with ideas and thoughts.

I think you can already do that with facebook etc. So far it has not led to greater wisdom. Privacy intrusion and identity theft got lah, but no godlike powers yet as far as I can see.
What's stopping us, in my opinion, is our inability to distinguish knowledge from wisdom.
Many high IQ people (great knoweldge) do dumb things (low wisdom.)
Many wise people (high wisdom) have hardly left their village (low knowledge.)
We think they are the same but they are not.
There are many examples to show that knowing a lot doesn't always lead us to the higher path. You can find people whose IQ are off the charts who are also the unhappiest people you ever met.
How does raw knowledge lead to the picture of universal wisdom you described? That is the dots we need to connect.
