Recently I've been reading some frankly disturbing blogs and posts etc. on the internet. Some people somewhere in this world seem to be unhappy with the way things are going in this society and seem to think committing hollywood action movie style acts of destruction, particularly aimed at the airline industry, would somehow precipitate a political or societal change for the better. Or at the very least bring down the air transport industry, which would be a "good thing" in their opinion. I suspect the great sky god, Boeing would disagree.

I cannot stress enough how wrong this way of thinking is. Besides being a grossly immoral course of action the outcome would not be a better world it would be a more horrific world and this world is enough of a horror show as it is. Acts of destruction committed out of anger and psychotically justified by an imagined utopian outcome should definitely be forgotten about and certainly not discussed in detail on the internet. They probably shouldn't even be dramatized by the entertainment media either but that is off topic.

If you really, really, really want to take out the airline industry and affect social and political change then there is one certain and unstoppable way to do it. You are a human being. You were born with the most terrifying weapon known to man at your command, your mind. So why use it to design and plan rash acts of thuggish destruction? You have your whole life span to use your mind, your inbuilt supercomputer, to plan, research and develop an act of pure creation. An act of pure creation is always more devastating to the status quo than an act of destruction. If you applied your whole mind and dedicated your entire life to solving the problem of point to point matter teleportation and were successful, you would take out the airline industry and affect social and political change almost overnight. Also the benefits to mankind and the human experience as a whole would almost definitely make things 'evolve' in a more positive direction... ... for a while.

You could even encourage other angry and disaffected people to join your project and apply their minds to the problem. With the right team of frustrated, angry, desperate people you might even manage to make commercial instantaneous matter transportation cost effective and profitable.

Yes, I know, there is the Heisenberg principle to overcome but I'm sure those angry, young, secular activists who are hiding deep underground in caves in the Swiss mountains will get us that one step closer when they get to switch their new toy on in a few weeks. I know I'm looking forward to it, or is that backward to it? What direction does time flow in again? I'm sure our friends over at CERN will work that out for us in the not too distant future.

Or is that the not too distant past?
