<< Very true, but IMO it would be better that at least Society ' asks '
Intellect
for help to sort things out.
On the other hand, it would be wise, IMO of course, that Intellect acts not
with such a presumption. Intellect seems to be irritated by Society.
Of course, the problem with this is that Society and I do mean here the
Masses
don 't really stand open for by the Intellect improved ideas.
There is a certain, oppressed discrepancy between those levels by which
neither feels very comfortable.
IMO, once again, I think Society is " afraid " and really don 't " trust "
Intellect.
It is something what Society lacks and what is not known to Society is evil
and dangerous.
I think, in a way we could say that Intellect is Society 's scape- goat !?
That is, Society expects from Intellect solutions to the problems it faces
while
something goes wrong the Intellect is to blame for apllying not fully
understood
technologies, ideas, etc...
IMO, Society has to make up its mind, go forward with Intellect as its bias,
or disappear completely within Intellect...

Best regards,

Kenneth
