.....what does it say about us?
If aliens were observing us via the content of the internet what opinions would they form of us?
I started writing a blog entry about this but wanted to hear your thoughts before I finish it.
So what does the internet say about us? Perhaps that we're very consumer-oriented (shopping sites), very horny (porn sites), a wee bit narcissistic (can't help but see social networking sites as thinly veiled narcissism - although not always), very opinionated (forums, reviews, opinions posted on just about everything), obsessed over strangely insignificant things like celebrity lifestyles (entertainment sites)...and of course news sites display the whole gamut of human dysfunctionality. And yet, shining beacons of light are amid the darkness of cyberspace - sites such as this, and sites devoted to the wisdom of spiritual teachers both alive and passed on.
So what do you think the internet says about us? What would those aliens think of us judging by the content of the internet...???
