"Бледа плава тачка" - Карл Саган

[Grizzly Adams]

Ево једног правог атеисте и мудрог човека. Обратите пажњу:

From this distant vantage point, the earth might not seem of any particular interest, but for us, it’s different. Consider again that dot. That’s here. That’s home. That’s us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every “superstar”, every “supreme leader”, every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there—on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

The earth is a very small stage in a vast cosmic arena. Think of the rivers of blood spilled by all those generals and emperors, so that, in glory and triumph, they could become the momentary masters of a fraction of a dot. Think of the endless cruelties visited by the inhabitants of one corner of this pixel on the scarcely distinguishable inhabitants of some other corner, how frequent their misunderstandings, how eager they are to kill one another, how fervent their hatreds. Our posturings, our imagined self-importance, the delusion that we have some privileged position in the universe, are challenged by this point of pale light.

Our planet is a lonely speck in the great enveloping cosmic dark. In our obscurity, in all this vastness, there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves. The earth is the only world known so far to harbor life. There is nowhere else, at least in the near future, to which our species could migrate. Visit, yes. Settle, not yet. Like it or not, for the moment the earth is where we make our stand. It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world. To me, it underscores our responsibility to deal more kindly with one another and to preserve and cherish the pale blue dot, the only home we’ve ever known.

Зато је, ако се не варам, вл. Николај рекао "ако си заиста прави атеиста, онда си на корак од Хришћанства".

[Аурор]

Hrišćanstvo je veliš, ultimativno nad ultimativnim nad ultimativnim?

Sagan je okej momak.

[Grizzly Adams]

Хришћанство је само вера у живот и ништа више. Ни мање.

[drvce]

Vl. Nikolaj je to rekao zbog Karla Segana?

Doduse, razlika je u hintu koji bitno menja percepciju sveta (there is no hint that help will come from elsewhere to save us from ourselves).

Titl koji ide uz video je katastrofalan.

[sqny]

Jel to ipak dozvoljeno piskaranje na ovom podforumu ?

[Млађони]

Jel to ipak dozvoljeno piskaranje na ovom podforumu ?

Ако није требало би да се отвори опет.

[Grizzly Adams]

Ма нема везе "хинт", неко га види, неко не види... То не мења пуно што се главне теме о којој он говори тиче. Била ми је намера да размислимо колико је у ствари живот величанствен и вредан, иако смо у ствари само на једном зрнцу песка у Космосу. Саган је то феноменално објаснио.

[nishizawa]

Сеган рулз.

Jel to ipak dozvoljeno piskaranje na ovom podforumu ?

Samo dok se ne pominje znas-vec-ko...

(u pozitivnom smislu naravno)

[Grizzly Adams]

То никако...

агностик...

Kao dijete kledao sam naučni serijal "Kosmos" koji je vodio i uređivao Karl Segan.Nije to bilo loše ali se sjećam jednog pitanja koje je Karl sam sebi postavio.Zašto od tačnog omjera tvari koje čine čovjeka ili neko dugo živo biće mi ne možemo ni na koji način ni jednim postupkom da načinimo živog stvora?Tu nešto nedostaje?

Bog.

[Toma]

Divan filmčić!

Postavi čoveka u pravu perspektivu prema ličnim

aspiracijama i globalnim trvenjima....

Zanimljivo mi je i ovo na kraju:

"Edited by tragedy and hope".
