Humanity is evolving through two kinds of evolution. We are evolving physically through the Tree of Life and we are evolving mentally through the Tree of Knowledge. The human race is unique in that we have evolved the ability to share vast amounts of information so that information that is discovered by one individual can be passed on to others. Other species of life have only very limited abilities to communicate. They can squeal to alert others to danger. Bees do complex dances to communicate the location of food to other bees. But we are the only species that can surf the web and blog and we only evolved the ability to surf the web and to blog in the last 20 years. The Internet, which we call the Sacred Network was a huge advance in human evolution.
Now that the human race has evolved the Tree of Knowledge, our evolution has accelerated. We have changed the face of this planet through our ability to share information. Humans can now fly and travel to the Moon. We have now sent a machine (Voyager 1) outside our solar system. We can peer using our space telescopes back to the beginning of space and time. We have split the atom turning matter into energy. We are now beginning to use the Tree of Knowledge to control the Tree of Life. We can make genetic material and we will soon be able to manufacture custom life forms from scratch. We have the power to determine our own future and we need the wisdom to make good choices so that we decide to become something good that we can look back at knowing that we made good choices.
