The great divide?
when did it occur?
Was it the Greeks or
the invention of metal
or the invention of fire perhaps?
When was it that humanity seperated itself
no not church from state
but humanity from Earth.
When was the earth seen as "unclean" and humanity
and civilization and health seen as above Nature.
Was the separation on the pretense of health reasons.
But nature like any organism has its bouts of health and disease and has its immune responses. Humanity should have known this but choose instead a different course and built a house and cast nature out. Sure there are true sanitary considerations and proper places and treatments for certain things but to throw the baby out with the bath water?
For shame and very silly. Now human immune system have become so pampered that they can not withstand the simplest of things. Humanity is "prejudice" against nature. And then the manoquered and hypocondriac "suits" took the reins and the rest well is...
I wonder?

The Industrial Revolution

The industrial revolution? Is it possible that that is when and where humanity got off track some how. For the reason of ? Hmmmm what is it then of that that would cause or result in the current consequence. Is there a particular aspect that accounts for the great divide. Not sure don't quite grasp it at the moment but it does seem that this may have been a significant time of departure from ?
From the living in harmony and circularity with the planet.

Yes I think it is with the industrial revolution and perhaps the engine of it the steam engine where we first see the glaring lack of foresight and planning to accurately foresee the consequences of human industry and its effect on the world as a whole. It the times lack the anticipation and follow through and foresight and calarity down the line to see or guage the impact and consequences of new technologies on the planet. The environment appears to be the last thing on peoples minds in the headiness of new discovery. The age and such was not thought through very clearly and or far enough down the line and anticpation of the fallout and damage control. The consequences were largely ignored or not even considered.
