The illusion of Racism. An objective view

Racism has existed through out history and it was devastating. Countless lives were lost just because of their ethnicity. People lost their self confidence just because of their ethnicity. But does race have do to anything on the way we think as humans? Do each of us have a different type of conscience?

We as humans have evolved for thousands of years, we as a species have done things that we thought were impossible, we have invented and innovated and have established ourselves as the dominant species of this planet and we separate the rest as inferior beings classified as animals. Now, what I have just said may seem quite obvious but to understand what I am about to say in the following paragraphs one should understand the crucial foundation of human endeavor and existence.

The first humans existed in Africa and were known as Homo-erectus. They had very primitive skills and were wandering around Africa for only God knows why and where. They have then reproduced and have increased their population to a point where they deemed it was getting a bit crowded, hence they decided to move to different places. As time went on they evolved and kept on evolving, they discovered the whole world and adapted. Their bodies adapted to the conditions of the environment they were in. Their dark skin lightened for the ones living in conditions where sunlight was weak, the number of sweat glands in the skin increased in number for the ones living in hot conditions and so on. By this way the human being adapted to the specific conditions they were living in which resulted in the change of their genetic code which was them later passed on to the next generation. Thus the human body evolved itself according to the environmental conditions.

Today humans are regarded as the most intelligent beings on planet Earth and yet they seem to hate each other for the color of their skin and for being from a different man made belief of a higher being. It is probably why extraterrestrial beings don’t visit humans.

We humans have created an illusion of our existence. We have categorized ourselves cause we are from different religions, we have separated each other because we have different colors of skin, we have separated each other because we are from different parts of the world.

As intelligent beings what we should understand is that we all are human and that we all have the human mind. The only think that we all humans have in common is the way we think, to be more specific, we all have a human mind or a human consciousness. I am sure we can all agree on that. We all have different bodies, different dialects, different cultures but we all think equally.

When we meet someone foreign we think that that person must be thinking differently and that he/she is a totally different being. But if you look closely and get to know that certain person you will find out that they the way they think is exactly the same as yours. What is thought specifically may vary but the thoughts and feelings such as hunger, lust, thirst, anger, jealousy, hatred etc. are all the same. Even within communities of people, no matter what the race is you will see they all have the same thoughts.

So don't you see it is actually pointless and incredibly unintelligent to think of people as different from each other just because of their physical appearance. The day racism ends and all the people in the world develop an objective view of things is the day we can all evolve as intelligent beings and uphold the flag of humanity to great heights.
