Tao Stoic 189

"What do you regard the greatest stupidity of Mankind, Master?"

"Undoubtedly, the exploration of space without knowing (or caring) how to govern (run) Earth itself (See: 'La Pura Verdad' Julio 1989). Controlling outer space without first controlling Earth.

"But it is the technicians and scientists who do that Master!"

"The task of every scientist, whether concerned with microbiology, electronics, railway planning or wall-socket standardisation, every and all scientists' task it is to see to-, and work for-, Human Dignity and safety. Thus they all should be in the forefront of establishing a sane and fair World-Government. They should BE world-citizens, Lottocrats, Cosmopolitans. To kill the planet first, while going and studying, exploring its surroundings, is the absolute form of insanity. It is the madness of a frightened blind horse in a hall, filled with wailing people lighting fire-crackers."
