Science and Technology Always Outpaces Culture.
(5)
Enlightenment tends to 'seep up.' It takes time for social processes to challenge technological processes. And there is always a 'window' where technological processes can 'win' in historical scenerios. And so I would suggest that, eventually, an 'Atomic Scenerio' will present itself in a world cultural situation. We don't want that.
Therefore I would like to present the idea of an International LSD Symposium every ten years. Thousands of international political leaders would gather in an international city selected previously. International Media would, of course, be in 'attendence.' The 'atmosphere' would be somewhat like the 'Olympic Games' except that the selected World Leaders would all take an LSD Trip together. International Media would have taken their LSD Trips two months previously. Reporting would therefore be quite accurate.
It might be the only thing that saves us.
