We've become accustomed to the mystery, so it seems normal.

But if you didn't exist on Earth and Earth was a drug that you could take where you could experience life on Earth, you'd be like, this is crazy.

Being a human being, interacting with people, looking at things through your eyes.

Hearing things through your ears, touching and feeling, smelling and using all your senses and navigating through this bizarre experience of life.

Very weird.

Which makes you think, like, if you were an ancient person and you had this experience, of course you would think you're communing with God.

Yeah.

Yeah.

Well, we are ancient.

And, you know, if you go 5000 years from now, how they're going to look at us like these dorks.

God, isn't that a crazy thing that if you asked a person, is it possible in your lifetime for war to not exist?

Most people would like that.

There's no way.

Which is insane.

It's so insane.

Because in small groups, it's clearly easy.

Like if it was just you, me, and Jamie, and we were the only people on earth, it would be super easy to not go to war with each other.

That's right.

We would just communicate.

But then you're dealing with different languages and control of resources, and then you have people that are leaders that have control over giant groups of people and then use propaganda.
