O knihe

Based upon a conversation having taken place during the course of a long fight, the author speculates on the course of the universe from what spawned the initial cataclysm called the Big Bang. He briefly relates its probable progression from the initial energy and subatomic elements that erupted through that process, to the inception of matter, astral formations and, eventually of life, evolving and culminating in the emergence of its human form among others. In the course of human evolution, he traces the possible and probable sources of myths, faiths, religions and their role in the development of systems of social mores, education and justice as well as of their persisting influence in their implementation. Additionally, he raises awareness of some persistent problems such as those related to the status of women, scapegoating and enforced ignorance. When addressing the subjects of the manufacture of human-like functioning parts and of human-like artificial intelligence he ponders the questions of the nature of life, death, consciousness, conscience, self-determination as well as of the soul. He finally raises the question about the responsibility of humans in the husbandry of the biosphere we call Earth, upon which we live and whose integrity is paramount to the survival of humanity among the other forms of life its sustains. Throughout the text the author emphasizes that its main purpose is that of raising questions to be discussed.
