Thought

Successful development is not only the physical development. Targeting only physical development, and utilize resources grossly and destructively in spite of environmental balances, is not suitable for real progressive minded people. We must develop our minds to think so many areas before doing something. If we considered the field of science and technology, if we are going to implement new things targeting only commercial goals, that will be a big reason to grow unnecessary needs in the human society. This is the main reason which leads people to utilize resources destructively.

That is why we must control our minds first.

Reinvestigate the sexuality

Today we must critically discuss about the sexuality according to the evolution of life. Because of we must be correctly identified the advance human features which are related to the human sexuality such as gender specifications, family unit and the concepts of paternity and maternity. Feminists are trying to make an unpleasant attitude about these things today. It is clear they are bashing the natural sexuality. They hate men and the true nature of sexuality too. We must not give any chance for them to generalize their capricious behavior.

Environmentalism and feminism cannot be linked together.

Do not allow feminists to denote that they are environmental friendly people. They are trying to conflate environmentalism and feminism together falsely. People who love the natural environment really are also love the whole nature. They cannot oppose the natural sexuality. But the feminists are always fighting against the natural sexuality and especially they are fighting against natural male sex drive. They do not accept gender specifications which are based on straight sexual orientation. Natural environment is important to the existence of human kind. But it is not the whole nature. If we really love the nature, we must accept all the things which are related to the nature too.

Religion is an essential part of human society.

In any human society that belongs to any ethnic group, there is a religion. It is the main factor of multitude the people spiritually. Any one can argue that the religion is not essential in the modern society. But we must think, what is modernism? That is also an ideology, which is generated by the human mind. The weak point of the human mind is it cannot be totally satisfied with any thing. The theories of modernism can be changed in future, according to the nature of the human mind. The spirit of a religion will not be changed like that. People who follow a religion can discriminate good and bad things, and also discriminate the things can increase the life time of the society and the things are not like that. So they can conduct the knowledge for weal of the human society and all the beings of the world.

Advanced technology and advanced human features

People are talking about the progress of science and technology always. But science and technology is not every thing. If we are expecting a long time existence of human civilization we must know how to manage and manipulate them. First we must be correctly identified what the real advanced human features are according to the evolution of the life. Then we should manipulate the technology with a proper consistence of advanced human features. If we attempted to manipulate the technology with non advanced human features it will destroy the long time existence of the whole civilization.

Get ready to the challenges of the future.

If all of countries follow the theories of developing for 50 years from this point forward, the next generation may have to spend more time of their life to solve the environmental problems which are generated due to mistakes done by the past generation. We have to conduct the knowledge of all areas beyond the commercial goals. All the sub-versions, which have taken place in all the fields after the industrial revolution is, cannot be generalized as they must happen as it is. We must control our minds to control our needs.

Then we will be able to control the destructive resource utilizing.
