The Problem of Human Egos

by Richard John Stapleton - Open-Publishing - Friday 6 December 2013

Here is another iconoclastic prasad from SillyMichel Adzema posted on my Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/richard.stapleton.397.

In this one SillyMichel tells us humans our major problem is we were born too quickly, after only nine months of gestation, which was required to exit our wombs given our relatively large heads, which were necessary to contain our large brains, which will later enable us to think abstractly and use complex language and symbols to communicate and create things, which unfortunately leads to the creation of our "egos", causing us to become arrogant and aberrant in the world of nature, unlike the development process of all other species of fauna, causing us to develop superiority complexes to compensate for our innate feelings of inferiority and inadequacy, caused by being born helpless, causing us to inflict our egoistic constructions on others, thus compounding the problem, causing us to become even more separated from nature, causing us to become increasingly addicted to egoistic constructions, necessary to stave off depression and despair, originally caused by our hasty gestations. Ego thus becomes the ultimate opiate of the people producing euphoric highs necessary to enable us to tolerate the carnage and wreckage going on and piling up around us in our environment as an inevitable consequence of our ego addictions.
