Special Weapons and Tic-tacs

So I think it's about time we discussed the future of all mankind. We're fucked aren't we really and ironically it's the dudes who have taken it upon themselves to advance the species who are resonsible. Wankers. I didn't ask them to, did you?

Science may have proven beyond a reasonable doubt that monotheist religions are tosh, but these religions have boundaries. They're restricted to the confines of their respective books of nonsense. There's only so much harm they can do without the help of science.

Scientists on the other hand know no boundaries. Their experiments are not subject to theological restrictions and this makes them infinitely more dangerous. Don't get me wrong people, I'd rather have a science boffin living next door to me than a religious whacko, but it has to be said, that however ridiculous it is to believe in the paranormal in the 21st century, a Christian living next door to you is hardly likely to end the world.

A nuclear physicist or chemist on the other hand might very well be toiling away in his basement developing some technology he thinks is gonna be the next wheel that'll actually just end up progressing our extinction. Just ask Thomas Midgley's neighbours.

Have you seen this list of technological frontiers these people are tackling? I'm no sciencesmith, but all this stuff appears to me to represent the end of our species. Provide energy from fusion; reverse engineer the brain; advance personalised learning - eeek, you know what that means don't you; that's bionic implants - it's turning us all into cyborgs. Preventing nuclear terror? How? With more duck and cover public safety videos? Fucks sake people - we've got to stop them. I'm not ready, I don't want to die until the end of the football season.

They talk about these things as if they're inevitable. They're not. Natural disasters are inevitable. Stress incontinence is inevitable. No one has to develop technology that will ultimately turn us into a race of Terminators, they do cause they wanna do.

It's got nothing to do with humanity. It's the antithesis of humanity. No one has stopped me in the street and asked me about the challenges I think we're facing as a species. A challenge to humanity is being able to spill someone pint without ending up in the emergency room. This list is just the horse shit science has come up with because the fuckers that fund their research have instructed them to. Yeah, right on!

Science has killed way more people than religion by my way of thinking. Second onnly to malaria in human fatalities probably. Wars may be fought over religious disputes, but it's science that developed the weapons they kill each other with. Religious wars were fine back in the day when all they had to attack each other with were sticks and leather sandals.

It wasn't a rabbi or a priest who developed the atomic bombs that melted a sizable percentage of the Japanese population. It was that science c*nt, what's his name? Oppenheimer - a physicist. It's science that figured out ways of burning peoples internal organs with chemicals and it's science that allowed the Americans to drop napalm on the Vietnamese and Iraqi's. Crucifixion really is a doddle compared that stuff.


Have you ever listened to a Scientist discuss technology and it's possibilities? Scary as fuck. The look in their eyes, the foaming of the mouth, the rabid enthusiasm these people exhibit at the possibilities of turning flesh and blood humans into robots.

Do you recall that Dolly the sheep genetic experiment? They cloned a sheep and Dolly was the result. Dolly went crazy and died. Steven Hawkins is the Dolly the sheep of human cyborg symbiotics. Steven Hawkins was a good looking athletic dude before science got hold of him.

Poor Steve had a few beers signed on the wrong dotted line and they had him in for assimilation, now look at the state of him. He might have an IQ of 2000, but watch him eat soup and tell me he's the future. But they don't think about the consequences do they, ooooh no; it's all about the could we and very little of the should we. I think you know what I'm trying to say.

We're all so suspicious of politicians and their megalomania, but we at least have some means of regulating them; of reigning them in when they get too crazy. Scientists though, there's no regulating them. There are no elections to police these people. Consequently they're all locked away unsupervised in labs creating the kind of technology that could blow the galaxy up as early as later this evening.

Sandwiched between science and religion we've got no chance people. I wash my hands with all of them. I've recently begun stowing baked beans, orange tic-tacs and porn.

The moment they announce the first solar powered atomic bionic man, I'm entombing myself in my Anderson shelter and never coming out. I suggest you do the same. It’s everyman for himself.
