Caption : Our relationship with reality: it’s complicated. Outside the common imagination of human beings, there are no gods in the universe, no nations, no money, no human rights, no laws, and no justice. It’s our shared belief in these myths that cements our social order and enables large-scale human cooperation. #sapiens #imagination #cooperation #reality #myths #quoteLikes : 18323

Caption : 2023 has been a very exciting year. That’s a big problem. The word “exciting” is the most misunderstood word in today’s English. When you meet someone new, it is common to say “I am so excited to meet you”. When you visit a new place, you say “I am excited to be here”. When you want to praise an idea you say “what an exciting idea”. Apparently, people think “excited” means happy, and excitement is always good for us. But excitement can sometimes be the opposite of happiness. Negative emotions like outrage and fear greatly excite people. When the body senses danger, the nerves flash emergency messages, the neurons fire rapidly, and the whole body is excited. In 2023 the entire world has been far too excited. Nowhere is the epidemic of excitement more evident than in politics. The world is flooded with exciting politicians who create exciting news. We desperately need more boring politicians. To flourish, humans certainly need to be excited sometimes – about people, places, and ideas – but we also need to wind down. Next time you meet someone, try saying “I am relaxed to meet you”. I hope 2024 will be a relaxing year.Likes : 16062

Caption : In today’s noisy world, so many opinions are expressed all around us. Having views on things often shows that you care, and a healthy debate can widen our perspective. But it’s important for opinions and arguments to be based on facts that can be scientifically validated, as far as possible. People are entitled to have their own views, but they are not entitled to have their own facts. #quote #science #facts #knowledge #debate #quoteofthedayLikes : 14195

Caption : Mass identities are based on fictional stories, not on scientific facts. Nowadays, much of the division of humans into massive groups still depends on religious myths. So in the 21st century religions don’t bring rain, they don’t cure illnesses, they don’t build bombs – but they do get to determine who are ‘us’ and who are ‘them’, who should we cure and who should we bomb. Most religions have a lot in common, but they are too often weaponized to generate division and conflict. #quote #humanity #identity #tribalism #cooperation #quotes #coexistence #bridgingdivides #religionLikes : 13720

Caption : “The revolutions in biotech and infotech will give us control of the world inside us, and will enable us to engineer and manufacture life. We will learn how to design brains, extend lives, and kill thoughts at our discretion. Nobody knows what the consequences will be. Humans were always far better at inventing tools than using them wisely. It is easier to manipulate a river by building a dam over it than it is to predict all the complex consequences this will have for the wider ecological system.” #psychology #tech #quote #21lessons #21lessonsforthe21stcenturyLikes : 11415

Caption : How has our evolution shaped the world? Ever since the Cognitive Revolution, tens of thousands of years ago, humans have been living in a dual reality. On the one hand, the objective reality of rivers, trees and lions. On the other hand, the imagined reality of gods, nations and corporations. As time went by, the imagined reality became more and more powerful. Today the very survival of rivers, trees and lions depends on the grace of imagined entities like the USA and Google. #YuvalNoahHarari #Quote #Sapiens #CognitiveRevolution #RealityLikes : 10649

Caption : People are free to believe in gods if they find it helpful, but there is no need for gods in order to live a good life. Morality doesn’t mean “obeying gods”. Morality means “liberating yourself and others from suffering”. #morality #gods #atheism #religion #quoteLikes : 10313

Caption : People cannot search for the truth and for the way out of suffering without the freedom to think, investigate, and experiment. Freedom is something to be cherished, and we must refrain from investing supreme authority in any text, institution or leader as the ultimate judge of what’s true and what’s right. Humans should always retain the freedom to doubt, to check again, to hear a second opinion, to try a different path. #freedom #knowledge #21Lessons #quoteLikes : 10293

Caption : “Various groups distort and weaponize the term ‘Zionism,’ depicting it as a malignant form of tribalism or even racism,” @yuval_noah_harari writes in @PostOpinions. “We cannot do justice here to the many strains that existed within Zionism over the past 150 years, and to the impact that events such as the Holocaust and the various Arab-Israeli wars had on Zionism. What is clear is that over the generations many Zionists did deny the right to Palestinian nationhood, and laid claim to the entire land between the Mediterranean Sea and the Jordan River, as well as to additional territories east of the Jordan, in the Sinai Peninsula and elsewhere. But other Zionists held much more sensible views, and were willing to settle for far less. David Ben-Gurion and the majority of Zionists embraced in 1947 the U.N. partition plan that mandated the establishment of a Palestinian state alongside a Jewish state. It was Palestinian rejection of this plan that led to the eruption of the first Arab-Israeli War (1948-1949).” Harari warns: “If Netanyahu’s bigoted vision vanquishes Herzl’s Zionist ethos, it would alter the meaning not only of the modern state of Israel, but also of thousands of years of prior Jewish history.” 🔗Visit the link in the bio of @PostOpinions to read more.Likes : 10150

Caption : What’s the connection between feelings and rationality? Scientific insights into the way our brains and bodies work suggest that our feelings are not some uniquely human spiritual quality. They are biochemical mechanisms that all mammals and birds use to make decisions, by quickly calculating probabilities of survival and reproduction. So feelings are not the opposite of rationality: they are our body’s evolutionary rationality. #YuvalNoahHarari #Rationality #Feelings #biologyLikes : 9310

Caption : Fear of the unknown can paralyze us more than any tyrant. People throughout history worried that unless we put all our faith in some set of absolute answers, human society will crumble. But modern history has demonstrated that a society of courageous people, who are willing to admit ignorance and raise difficult questions, is usually more prosperous and peaceful than societies where everyone unquestioningly accepts a single answer. People afraid of losing their truth tend to be more violent than people who are used to looking at the world from several different viewpoints. Questions you cannot answer are usually far better for you than answers you cannot question. #quote #questions #answers #humanity #21lessonsforthe21stcentury #21lessons #quotesLikes : 8725

Caption : “For thousands of years the scientific road to growth was blocked because people believed that holy scriptures and ancient traditions already contained all the important knowledge the world had to offer. A corporation that believed all the oil fields in the world had already been discovered would not waste time and money searching for oil. Similarly, a human culture that believed it already knew everything worth knowing would not bother searching for new knowledge. This was the position of most premodern human civilisations. However, the Scientific Revolution freed humankind from this naïve conviction. The greatest scientific discovery was the discovery of ignorance. Once humans realised how little they knew about the world, they suddenly had a very good reason to seek new knowledge, which opened up the scientific road to progress.” #knowledge #science #ignorance #quote #homodeusLikes : 8179

Caption : Luxuries tend to become necessities and to spawn new obligations. Once people get used to a certain luxury, they take it for granted. Then they begin to count on it. Finally they reach a point where they can’t live without it. Over the last few decades, we have invented countless time-saving devices that are supposed to make life more relaxed—washing machines, vacuum cleaners, dishwashers, telephones, mobile phones, computers, email. We thought we were saving time; instead we revved up the treadmill of life to ten times its former speed and made our days more anxious and agitated. #luxury #timesaving #anxiety #quote #sapiensLikes : 6862

Caption : Have you ever noticed words losing their impact over time? Like money, words too suffer from inflation. In political debates, extreme terms are thrown around for shock, but their inflated use can dilute their meaning until the shock becomes a mere shrug. If we’re mindful of how we use them, words can have a lasting power.

Caption : What’s the meaning of life? Philosophy, religion and science are all running out of time to address this question. As artificial intelligence and biotechnology give humans the power to reshape and re-engineer life, somebody will soon have to decide how to use this power – based on some story about the meaning of life. Philosophers are very patient people, but engineers are far less patient, and investors are the least patient of all. If you don’t know what to do with the power to engineer life, the invisible hand of the market will soon force upon you its own blind reply. Unless we’re happy to entrust the future of life to the mercy of quarterly revenue reports, we need a clear idea what life is all about. #AI #Science #Philosophy #Future #Quotes #21LessonsLikes : 6595
