Dossiers A Better Life The Psionic Predator, by Charles Cosimano | Page 21

It causes disasters. Now, we work at eliminating conscience and the psychopath, who is free of such burdens, will be the next stage of human evolution, but try as we might there are always going to be some things that just nag, and annoy, and stick in our craw. No matter how we try we always have something floating around in our minds that says we did not do the right thing. So what is important is for you to determine what the right thing is, then it will not matter what society thinks, at least as far as the philosophy goes. Remember, there is the matter of social inconvenience. Let me give an example. I acquire a noisy neighbor and determine that the best way to deal with the problem is to kill him. In the purely philosophical sense I have every right to do that. He is annoying, noisy and I have no practical or emotional reason for wanting him to be alive. After all, the only value a human life has is in its capacity to benefit us. Or as the bumper stick says, "Kill them all! Harvest their parts!" However, if I do that which is right and proper, namely take out my gun and shoot him, society, in its perverse and stupid belief that human life has some peculiar and distinct value in and of itself in spite of all evidence and reason to the contrary, will become very annoyed with me causing lots of inconvenience and paperwork. In other words that which is right is frustrated by social inconvenience. However, if I use psionics and he should just sort of drop dead, well society has no cause for complaint. People drop dead all the time and it is no big deal. In fact in most cases we are better off without them. I mean, let us be honest, does anyone really miss all those surplus Rwandans? Now, if I buy into the notion that society is right and I should not kill this person for some undefined metaphysical reason, I create guilt in myself even for thinking about it and next thing you know, one of those attractive thoughtforms is going to kick in and kaboom! I'm in trouble! Therefore, repeat after me: SOCIETY IS ALWAYS WRONG! You are a predator, a hunter. You are not limited by the weakling ways of the broader culture. But you are also smart enough not to let it trap you into doing things that it can respond to. You wield a power that it cannot stop. You have no hesitation in using that power and in doing so you deal with society on your terms, not on its. You are the virus that has no vaccine and that the immune system cannot stop. When you use psionics, rather than the brutal, stupid force that society expects, you are fighting on your ground and on your terms. You are the predator, they are the prey. Never doubt yourself. Never criticize yourself. Self-criticism only leads to self-doubt.
