Looking back carefully, in the past tens of thousands of years, human beings have indeed never experienced any significant benign evolution, or even some degradation.
Natural selection, survival of the fittest. The speed of nature's evolution, under the intervention of human activities, is getting faster and faster. Today's human beings, what they want and do, are no longer conforming to nature, but transforming nature.
Butterfly effect, pulling one hair and moving the whole body, is almost well known. But stupid and greedy people are always easily blinded by immediate interests. This summer, I went home and encountered drought again. I suddenly remembered that when there was a drought when I was a child, I would hear the meteorological station implementing artificial rainfall. At that time, I was often surprised by this "defying the sky" behavior. Slowly, droughts still crop up from time to time, and artificial rainfall is less and less. Under the inquiry, it turned out that artificial rainfall also requires certain conditions, and these conditions are indeed more and more rare. Now, looking up at the sky, I can't help but hesitate: Is the normal drought now related to the human intervention and bombardment of "God" in the past? Disturbed the cycle of airflow operation.
"Heaven moves forever, not for Yao's existence, not for Jie's death." Tao Tangyao and Xiahou Jie, regardless of whether they are good or bad, are both characters in the ancient mythological era, and they have the power to penetrate the sky and the earth.

It's really "everyone has gone, count the romantic figures, but also look at the present" ah. Hehe~
The setting in the movie is good. Man Lai finally uses technology to create his own God, although he is rejected by mankind due to fear. But in the real world, the speed of technological development has actually been declining for nearly half a century. Most of today's technological progress is based on the improvement of the second and third industrial revolutions, and there are few new inventions and discoveries of trans-epoch significance.
The speed of natural evolution is getting faster and faster, and the ability of human beings to adapt to nature is getting weaker and weaker. With this rise and fall, how far is mankind from extinction?
