World as I Think

This is a post to present another view to whatever has been deciphered by the "intellectual" Sk.He is a pinnacle of human evolutionary intelligence who in my kind opinion is far too progressive for the peers around him. He has provoked a thought and diligently questions the whole phenomenon of having kids. You would be bamboozled by level of arguments he presents to make us think that kids are just an extension to our ego. In his opinion, the apparent happiness you get from kids is from the satisfaction of your egos!

I thought, I would have to a give a brief background about him before you understand his arguments. Sk believes that he can achieve eternal happiness without a speck of trough in his life, which he had synthesized through his ”reasoning" that intelligence can lead to happiness without falling for the cycles of emotions. He advocates that emotion is an unnecessary crap and he can sustain happiness without sadness through intelligence. He believes that happiness is a thought.

You would want to read his post before getting forward.

Now to the story, I had put forth an opinion that having kids is just a very natural course of action encoded in our genes, which is the basis of all living organisms. May be, the social construct in the recent years has lead us to have arguments like economic support from the off springs, does that mean that people would stop breeding if parents are economically indepedent?. Would the highly evolved humans obstruct themselves from begetting if they can relinquish their egos?. In my opinion, the ego is a repository of identify. I would believe that, even ego has gone through an evolutionary state from its naive state when it was initially devoid of identification. Then why did the first ape with naiveness procreate?

I would look procreation as natural characteristics of all forms in nature. It is apparent right from the functions of cells, which are the basics of all living organisms. An organism cannot live without the optimal cell division. Cells divide, grow and create another cell, which is absolutely necessary for the whole organism to live; it is an endless cycle, if the organism has to live.

I feel that kids are just an extension of the natural process of having sex. It is just that the egg decides to accept the sperm to replicate the organism and it has the accompanying probability game in the heat cycle. It is natural that the libido in the male or female or both is provoked by the androgen, which provokes the mating process. It is a pure case of self-gratification through orgasm. May be, we are more conscious now that it may or may not lead to a kid in the current circumstances.

Now to the argument that the supreme thought of not having kids acquired through the process of evolved thinking is also a natural process. The process of evolution happens through selection, crossover and mutation. Mutuations can a be natural outcome of the evolution process. A cat born blind may be a natural outcome of the process but the organism is as such incomplete with a less limited characteristic it possess.

The other reasons why I would want the organism to offshoot a offspring is of the reason that survival of the species as such. No off-springs, No species! Only procreation can allow the carryover of highly evolved intelligent gene pools into the future.

Having a kid or not is an individual decision. I am just putting forth that procreation is the fundamental characteristics of nature as such, its up to the one's supreme intellect to inhibit it or not. The species can survive only if it can replicate and there is a survival gene encoded in the chromosome, which would always thrive to create offspring till it becomes extinct.
