If knowledge is power, then we're fuct unless...

I knowledge is power then we are fuct. Fknowledge- the concept that knowledge is power is inherently flawed in that we feel powerful over our environment and the creatures within it. A god-like sense of dominion.

The forbidden fruit was the apple. Someone took a bite out of it and we were all fuct and what if it was only the way we did it that made it wrong. Going behind god's back with the intent to 'show 'em whose boss' kind of attitude is an asshole way to approach it. Its the way a dickish chile would thumb their nose at an adult. Instead, if we approach it with the humility of the student standing before the learn'ed we may be able to overcome the impending doom of disobedience. A wise woman once told me, "It is easier to ask for forgiveness than permission." I agree and, I believe, Jesus was preaching that same message. Original sin was bound to happen. God knew this and so did the devil. God got mad, like any good parent would and sent us to our room without dinner. We moped about and thumbed our noses at their ideas and ideals for a while and decided that we would show them. We showed 'em allright. We got fuct in the process and we showed 'em, by golly!

The point, yes the point, I was getting to that. Using knowledge. How do we, as a society, use it? I suggest we remember the concepts of humility and grace. Being humble enough to know that the knowledge we are obtaining are gifts and they should be treated with the proper respect not wielded like a hammer. Being gracious about the power it brings us and keeping that generosity of spirit in mind when we proceed.
