There are people that think in another way,
respect your way of thinking... but
do not want to be forced to make concense
to your politics.
For example, and only to let anyone think about
another ways of thinking:
1.- Evolution can´t be planned.
It is an observation (an emergent) guaranteed from
survival of a species pool through time. [*]
2.- In many areas of the world we have a lot of results
of actions of "responsible" people trying to make the "best
for the others".
Planning the future of the others is only valid as a formula
(generally formalized in the nort of the planet and for "all the world"),
defines a "visionary" but not a person who can promote
other ways of being.
cheers,
Ale.
[*] please consider this observation in constrast to most
of the papers on system evolution written in the past.
Most of them trying to formalize the evolution process...
If people let the authors write them and do not criticize them
is because they think different and respect theri/your POV
but it do not make more true the formalism expressed by the
authors nor make them more responsible.
