    the greatest advancement humanity has ever accomplished is sustaining our need for purpose.... either by science(as to blasting out in space in search of the remnants of the big bang) or by religion(as to evolving from paganism & polytheism to one-God in our search for significance).. They may seem futile to some, but judging the course of human history.... We've come far for a short period of time.

    but with that comes the greatest challege.. to keep on progressing & never to regress... coz progress always comes with a huge price, What could be at stake?
