Influencing The Future With Moral Thinking

Nature's Promise

Moral behavior preceded by Moral Thinking, just happens to be Creativity and Innovation's neglected sibling. A sibling whose persistent neglect is prophesying a dire future.

Nevertheless, whilst our neglect to learn Her Laws remains consistent, so Mother Nature's Life Force also remains consistent. She ever offers Her wayward children the resources of rectification of this serious error of behavior.

And long term prosperity.

These means of behavior rectification come about via subscription to a policy of always wisely weighing up the consequences of our actions, before we embark on them.  

Disregarding or refusing to go the extra mile, by neglecting to clearly Think things through to a readily acceptable conclusion whereby we fulfill our moral obligations to each other and our Planet, sets in motion, a train of Natural Law events, that can exact a costly toll we have not the means of meeting.    

This point needs no laboring - The accumulative evidence of Humanities ignorance of Nature is staggering . . .

From permanently polluting Natural resources to the current World wide financial crisis. And beyond our incompetent physical activity, to Humanities battered and tattered personal and international relationships. 

An example of inadequate Moral Thinking is in order.

Inadequate Moral Thinking

In the past, as Humans built nuclear reactors, using the fission process to produce heat, which in turn is used to produce Steam to spin turbines that drive electricity generators, and commissioned them to the benefit of Humanity, little consideration was directed towards the life threatening problem of radioactive waste, a known by-product of nuclear fission.

The horrifically adverse consequences to both the environment and we Humans, of this well intentioned, but seriously flawed, move to provide abundant energy to the masses, are well documented.

Whilst decisions manifesting such consequences are made towards the upper levels of any Nation's Hierarchy, this extreme, but all too common example serves to draw much needed attention to the pivotal nature of anticipating the effects and outcome of a course of action.

And the role Moral Thinking plays in decision making. Minor or major.

Criminal Behavior - An aside

Criminal behavior, although related consequence wise, is a separate issue, and can be addressed with the same approach to this philosophy, but is not the focus of this website.

Here we are discussing decent, honest, Good Human Beings who have an overriding desire to achieve equitable outcomes by doing the Right Thing.

No inference to willful wrongdoing is intended in the above example.

It is used to highlight the detrimental effects and downside of inadequate Moral Thinking, and hence, inadequate consequences.

Missing Link

Consistent with general or “normal” Human behavior, so common is it to all Humanity, this lack of anticipation is directly related to a decision maker's level of Conscious Awareness, and understanding of end results.

In other words his or her ability to Think expansively, in terms of solving problems.

 Rank is irrelevant to one's Thinking ability. Undeveloped vision is the missing link.

This holds true for all Human activities and all walks of life. Appropriate ability, to foresee the consequences of one's decisions, should be a prime prerequisite, of any office, or position, of Authority and Responsibility.

Absurd Habit

There is no denying this seemingly absurd habit of not anticipating consequences of our actions is common. This absurd approach to Life permeates all levels of all societies.

Everywhere on the planet, Rational Thought and Rational Action are the victim of uncensored Emotion.This regressive State Of Mind manifests as unnecessary, avoidable destructive waste and confusion that merely impedes civilized progress.

Inherent in incongruous attitudes, culminating in asinine behavior simply not befitting Homo Sapiens, it would appear to the possessors of such attitudes, when things go awry, which happens regularly, that they are afflicted by "bad luck".

Not comprehending the fact that they are brokers of their own, and frequently many others, fortune. In other words, their future.

Potent Demonstration

Rigorously Thinking a situation through to an environmentally sustainable conclusion, in the case of technology - - -

Or reaching an equitable conclusion in the case of a relationship, is a potent demonstration of savvy applied intelligence. An individual is consolidating his or her partnership with Nature.

The rewards of Harmony and Prosperity derived from this manner of Thinking are obvious to all. These rewards are well earned and well deserved. And require no justification.

This is the manner of Thinking espoused on these pages. Made possible by following a Philosophy of Natural Law.

Mind Expansion offers an effective antidote to the poisonous tendrils of immoral Thinking and action. It has the joyous stamp of approval from Nature and presents the safe opportunity of building a sustainable high tech world, prosperous lifestyle, and peaceful future.

With abundant profits for all contributors of effort.

Clear Choice

The often avid short-cuts to profits, exacerbated by inadequate moral Thinking, since we settled into communities, has exacted a grievous toll, in Human suffering, and environmental degradation.

The aftermath we are living with today awakens us to a clear choice that we can purposely and consciously make.

As individuals, we can demonstrate our support for Moral Thinking and Moral Behavior across the board, by continuing to make it the basis of our own activities.

And by purposely encouraging and supporting our fellows who too are actively doing likewise.

In particular we can demonstrate our support for our fellows who have chosen to shoulder a leadership role in Society, and are involved in the daily momentous moral decisions made on our collective behalf. To secure our collective future.

When we recognize, and then wholeheartedly support these Leaders, the battle for equality will be all but won.

Moral Thinking Rocks!
