I could tell many examples.
Our goal, is to be mentally and spiritually evolve, as much as we can.
While several hundred, or thousand years ago staying alive was a problem, now concentrating on our real "mission" is hard, because all adverts and materialistic things create a Fog in front of our eyes.
Although, there are different lifestyles.
Believe it or not, the harder your life is, the more you realize of this truth.
Intelligence is relative. That is why there are things we have to develop.
Like problem-solving ability, and such. Like I said, those, who have easy life may not know, because they dont have to fight for bread.
Look at politicians, or teachers. Teachers cant imagine why kids cant learn, because their life was always mentally stabil to learn.
Complexity cant be measured. And cannot be seen. Like, only psychology is an old rusty X-ray to know that.
Do you want me to answer? I am 16. I have many things to learn, to experience. But when I will be old, I will gladly tell you.
It would be useless, you would say. Exactly. You shall reach your goals, and build up the complexity which will affect your decisions.
Sorry, my head hurts for several reasons.

actually, using evolution, it can be seen and measured. velocity is the change of distance ofver time, then using that technique,going over time, form one culture to the next in what was created would show what complexity we have been able to make. But you see. We have material bodies. We ALSO have aspiitual self. I guess you can call that spirit, a sense of self. But how much do you think you would know without the family or world unit?
it has been said many times. what humans may see or hear or even feel, can all be lies....the more hardships might make it so you have built a world on lies. Or you have hardly any hardships and end up like Jesus, ne...(he supposedly created his hardships if you think about it...). And the thing about teachers isn't always true, people teach because they want to reach kids, but what the people who teach teachers is not how to reach kids, but how to shove information. teachers can teach more usefully through stories (which is why every culture has power of the story, africa has had it so long they have living libraries of people who tell stories)...
So is our mission to survive, then we would be more like reptiles in that sense. So what is our mission? I'm 19, turned today, lived in some hard times, lived in some good times...and as i think, it seems(my perspective), we are here to take care of the world. We are the only beings who make our environment and have the ability to pass HUGE (I mean HUGE) amounts of information on to the 2nd generation. I mean noone can name one animal that makes their environment and has the power to learn. Not only do we learn but we have opened the doors for expansion on our own creations. One generation dies and the next makes the first generations device even better, and even better, and even better...nothing in the animal kingdom can match that...
which comes to my next point...we have made everything around us so good that most tribal nations quit that life and began to live ours as we hit more tribal nations as U.S. and its European counterparts went around the world exploring. Where in complexity have we changed? We have not made ourselves better...so we are as simple as those who lived 200 yrs. ago. We are really just as capable as the egyptians 3000-5000 yrs. ago...so you tell me. How are we complex. Humans think with things, we compare us to them. we say 3rd world countries are primitive. And i ask, how are they different than us? We are simple beings with the ability to do amazing things is all...
Now back on subject...I don't know what love is so I want to know why the 66 yr. old dude is cool? Unless your parents married you two together, why are you with him?
