Choice? Or no choice? The only queries one should have. The only two queries to me anyway. “I see the light/ I seen the light…” Sing that song damnit! Go ‘head knock it out! Sing from the rooftops if yah wannah! But ask yourself another question, Have I really? And if you really have then you shouldn’t be singin. No-no-no! Yo ass should be scared shitless!
The infidels scoffing at infidels. You ain’t got me convinced with yo’ preachin, dancing and perceived captured, enraptured and “blessed” being ass! Captured by a light which you avow shined on you? Really! So it didn’t have no other choice but to shine on you and not me? Really?
Humankind was given what no other creature has on this entire earth: A gift of choice. But – for - not the ability to reason, then choice is not given; ergo, we are not human but just like all the other animals on this Eden . If, I need to eat, I’ll just chomp on this smaller human and satiate my appetite for a wee bit! No! Because we have rationale, we are sensient! Superior intelligence! We can’t fly like you birds, but we can make a birdlike vessel which will fly faster and higher than any of your kind without even the work to fly like you do, we make it mechanical; yet, we control it’s flight and patterns.
And you on the ground of the four legs, you scoff at us? And the best you have is a Cheetah? At best at the last clocking, a mere seventy miles an hour. With these hands and this superior intelligence, we have created a vehicle which will go more than two hundred and fifty miles per hour, not a muscle aches from going that fast for so long, because we have choice. Learn to run seventy miles an hour? Or build something to go faster, for a longer amount of time and without the work?
Or you, the kingdom of no legs and no wings. We learned so much from you of how we make these machines go faster than any animal in the aforementioned kingdoms are from your dolphins, aerodynamics. Water having so much drag but your dolphins can exceed some forty knots. Impressive but you still do not have choice. You cannot make the things that we do, we the Kingdom of Two Legs.
The thing about choice, it has this major flaw: No choice is without its penalties. You see, without choice there is no conscience. A raw single ideology when there is no choice involved: survival. Survival is non-thinking. Survival is about self and self alone; hence, one has succumbed to the kingdom of four legs, or the kingdom of two wings, or the dreaded wet blue kingdom of no legs or no wings.
A world gone mad with the state of disordered order, chaos. Yet, with this limitless intelligence we still succumb to the subhuman? Not looking out for our fellow humans. In survival mode. For what? We act like we have no choice. Is this what the best kingdom has to offer? And in the grand scope of origins: Have we not coveted the other kingdoms blissful ignorance of not empowering themselves with choice? Are we not all, based on our actions and non-actions throughout humankind, amid the Kingdom of Two Legs, any better than other kingdoms? We are all just like the various other kingdoms but we just talk, walk and travel differently.
