May i implore you to read slowly, even i cannot keep up with my poor english. It is the curse of any and every man at any and every level - to have knowledge and comprehension much more than your ability to express it.

As I sat in my room listening to Search of Sunrise covered up in sheets in the wee hours of the melbourne predawn reading the final few chapters of Alan Moore's hugo award winning Watchmen, i remarked at this quote in a panel from ozymandias, a protagonist of sorts.

"... thus began my path to conquest... conquest not of men but of the evils that beset them."

... it dawned upon me that no one man could ever have the capacity to do what ozymandias did if he were to succeed - but only in fiction. Not hitler, not alexander whom ozymandias idolized, not franklin with his great constitution, not king arthur, not emperor qin of china. Neither of these great rulers. Not einstein, not newton, not socrates, not nietzsche, not kant, not one philosopher. Neither of these great thinkers. Nothing changed humanity except itself. No one man, organization or event in history.

All these great people did were to reveal a portion of the human condition by which we all subtlely comprehend, identify with and are already originally imbued. The true supremity in all humanity, is the human condition - the universal understanding of pain, lust, greed, of reason and of comprehension and all its subtle shades of feelings and emotions that we as humans are subjected to. Decartes asserted that the act of thinking meant that even if all things were false and deceptive, atleast us, our conciousness existed. that the entity that was 'me' existed. and this was an inalieanable and indestructible basic truth facillitated by the very act of reasoning; inherent to all men. But the fact that this human conciousness decartes so prized - however great or miniscule - was bounded by the limits of the human condition is proof that the human conciousness on its own is not the ultimate entity given that all else was false, for what ultimate entity, unshakable in its foundations, would share congruencies with other conciousness ? Therefore since all human conciousness is congruent in that it all submits to the same human conditions, even decartes would be wrong. The ultimate and inalienable entity that existed in us was not the human conciousness, but the human condition of which the human conciousness is but a spawn. The conciousness is a subset of the condition without which the conciousness is but a child without its biological parents - an impossible being. It is a concious program by which it operates according to biological parameters on which its existence is dependent.

Thus this effectively means that no one conciousness or any scalable group of it can ever ever change the course of humanity be it a single man, a corporate organization, a goverment or a founded religion. That humanity exists as a whole and as a singular unit, with various parts creating the sum on which it exists. Humanity does not succumb to instruction or suggestion, it forges its own one path void of any influence. It will always be an amalgamation and sum representation of men in general. Thus what in reality thrives and moulds itself, is not such organizations or societies, but the human condition, merely polishing itself, with time.

That all the the observations of humanity we see in our societies; hitlers germany, the depression of 1910s, the industrial revolution, the enlightenment, the renaissence, classical antiquity, discovery of fire and the all the blandness and mediocrity of ordinary living and effeminate accomplishments and non-accomplishments throughout history and thus when extended, literally all aspects of human development, history, archievements and being; were but manifestations of humanity and its verily, human conditions. Labour in the form of concious thought and its supposed produce in the form of human archivement is not a genesis and result of or for change and improvement in humanity that we are so inclined to believe (but this is only prompted by our ego and arrogance), but merely the signs and symptoms of humanity by which it manifests and explores itself as a singular entity.

Thus that being said, it is naive for anyone to believe that they have the ability to change the lives of men and the destiny of humanity. Humanity has its own agendas of which we will always be a minute fractional representation of. To accept this implausibility of change and the existence of a larger humanity, one by which all men must resonate to by necessity of being, is the true meaning of humility and the true meaning of existence that men have laboured to archive (and in some cases attained) from confucious to nietzsche.

Thus the human condition is all there ever is to human counciousness, yours and mine. and everyone elses, today and in the past, and for certainty in all future. As human conciousness, we all but live within the framework set up by the human condition. It is the alpha and the omega, one that men has lived with through all ages and races, through black and white skin and all the shades of human skin colour in between, through the discovery of fire and the discovery of the neutron and even more from there. Men can think differently and wear different clothes and have different faces and throughly be unique in all sense of the word, but the human condition makes asses of them(us) all. And thus the human condition is the god supreme we all search but mostly fail to find. It is human destiny, and the reason for human existence. We are concious for these human conditions, and these human conditions allow us to be concious. This is all there is to the father and the son.

That said, i believe i have solved all the questions of lifes meaning and purpose, however contradictory and arrogant i must be to arrive at that; for I am but a mere conciousness, a slave.
