Imposant waren sie ja. Und in ihrer erschreckenden Größe irgendwie wunderschön. Dennoch sind sie von der Erde verschwunden als hätte es sie nie gegeben, von einigen spektakulären Knochenfunden abgesehen, dank derer wir überhaupt Kenntnis von der Tatsache haben, dass die Dinosaurier jemals auf diesem Planeten lived.
is the principle of "dinosaurs," even a success story of evolution: About 200 million years they roamed the earth before they became extinct about 60 million years ago and made room for smaller species.
On such a long survival, the human race a long time to knit, right?
"The thing here is called 'Talking Point'," are you now object. "There are observations of some 60 million years totally out of place."
Well. This is partially true. However, I find the parallels to the events of today actually striking.
especially the big dinosaurs had to disappear from the earth. With or without comet and volcanism and the resulting climate change. They were simply too grown. What happens when the dominant creatures are too big?
First, eat everything that is smaller and weaker than them. And if at some point there is nothing left, they finally devour each other. Finally, remains a desolate, barren, desert left destroyed and the rest is silence.
that this is not the right strategy to survive in a permanent manner, which had to either God or evolution in his / her infinite wisdom, finally recognize. The giant dinosaurs died out: Tyrannosaurus Rex, soft, yes, even had the peaceful (because plant-eating) Diplodocus. The creative power was of the pubertal stage Megalomania in the phase of adult rationality entered and started to think smaller, agile species that were not in danger of being crushed by its own weight.
Despite all the tragedy, this was long seen the development of better, because it is the survival of life on earth on delivery. (T-Rex was a small consolation given the way: The development took parts from him and formed him to return to .... well you know, it's almost unbelievable: to carry Spatz Yes, the little creatures actually comical. Part of the genetics of a Tyrannosaurus in itself. Likewise, the chicken.)
Now you are still wondering what it all has to do with the present. Sure, sparrows sind hübsch, Hühner zudem nützlich. Aber als aktueller Kommentar?
Betrachten Sie einfach die Parallelen zur heutigen Wirtschaftsentwicklung: Opel? Vor dem Aus. Karstadt? Bereits im Wanken. Großbanken? Kurz davor, wie Kartenhäuser in sich zusammenzustürzen.
Ja, wieder einmal sind die Dinos dabei, auszusterben. Wir werden es nicht verhindern können, egal, wieviele Staatseuronen wir es uns kosten lassen: Der Umsturz der Giganten wird die Erde erzittern lassen und so einiges mit in den Abgrund reißen, was sich in ihrem kühlenden Schatten gemütlich eingerichtet hatte.
Das Prinzip "Dinosaurier" ist der natürliche Feind der Artenvielfalt. So viel ist klar. Entweder, etwas erweist are the giants in handy (for example, by giving him pecks the pests from the skin), or it must disappear. Do we want the long run?
Consider the inner cities of our metropolitan areas. The shadow of the giants is over them. Chain stores, like in every city. Nothing seems more alive or special. At each corner there are the same at the hip to shorts, all in China for cheap labor stitched together and given different labels. The brand already
delusion of our children, the run on the "Hot": Everything a kowtow to the giants. The production of one million pants is exactly the same just easier than individuality. It is then that From North to Freiburg the street scene is full of young women who move with every third step, fearful the same old waist up, always in fear that someone could love handles remarkably, they have risen through the consumption of as the same fast food.
But that's not all: this development casts a blight on our education system as well: the egalitarianism in our schools has the sole purpose of pruning, the young people to DIN standard, so they are suitable for the Giants. Imagination and creativity? No way! These are indeed not needed in a world in which uniformity is the ultimate goal. The giants Parasites from the skin of relapsing bern. This is our task.
this sense, the collapse of the giant is indeed first of all frightening, provides small and agile species but whole new ways: the concentration of much smaller units within which creativity, that is, which will be the inherent human creativity, back in business. Hence the anxious stares of the parents in the education of their children will come to an end. The question will no longer be: "What grades you have," but "What ideas do you have?".
sounds like a better quality of life, our society as it does today. Do not you?
Review for Topic! I would be happy!
