The
modern world stands analogue greenhouses, compared to the number of parameters
of previous methods of human existence. We live in a world of prosperity,
social benefits of civilization and sanitation standards. Man becomes more
delicate, unfit weaker. He did not have to run after the animals sleep on the
ground and experience the horrific changes in temperature. But does this mean
that we have become weaker as compared with the ancestors?
The
man of the past suffered unbearably. Lack of vitamins, proteins, malnutrition,
disease, hunger and other "joys of the Middle Ages" tirelessly
pursued citizen of past eras. Low growth, short duration of life, not to
mention the existence as such. Someone may say, "but what about the
Olympic athletes? Knights? Really impressive the people we see on the canvases
of artists? ". In our world, too, there are heroes of movies and TV shows,
computer games. And the person on the order of superior forms of "old
heroes".
The
world of today gives man what he never had. Resources, security and the means
for self-expression. Anyone can significantly increase the strength and
endurance. Sports supplements, competent training, nutrition - all that is
needed, that would be for five years to reach the impressive building.
Moreover, if the goal set for steady growth can be achieved impressive changes,
taking into account the advances in medicine and pharmacology.
Our
world is like a greenhouse. We can really create a comfortable environment and
exist in them, not developing or evolving very slowly. But with the same
success, we can immerse themselves in the environment is so radical that not
even dreamed of the heroes of antiquity.
Pay
attention to the training camp of soldiers. Artificial environment that
requires them to maximum impact. Grueling workouts and constant replenishment
of forces. The soldier of our time, with arms, the same arming of past
centuries, can cost unit "ancestors." And the civilized world is not
such a "comfortable" what may seem.
If
last slaveholders hired guards, forced slaves to work and watched the maximum
capacity for work, but now we are coping with these roles. The man of today is
ready to "plow" laying out a maximum effort and energy. We literally
kills at work, eating anything, dreaming about vacation, and all because of the
confession values of consumer culture.
The
world really is a huge greenhouse. We are moving away from nature. We demand a
lot more than that would require the nature and we excel its creatures. The man
of today can be strong, brave, tempered and able to survive. But also, he can
devote his life to relax and eternal hedonism, at point-blank to death.
Choose
a way of life, it has a right to all of us. But what exactly it will be, we can
only answer themselves.
