Monkeys In Cages

Can I explain this article? Well the answer is plain and simple. No.

Two questions appear to mind after reading the title of this little guide to knowing stuff of no importance, the first of course is:

Who are the Monkeys?

Well, that one is easy: You!

Yes, that's right. "We're civilised!"" some may say, a recent conversation with a friend, concerning this matter, pointed to the television (a 20th century artifact), and stated, "Look, monkeys on snowboards". Indeed these monkeys are tool-using. Many say that these monkeys have stopped evolving, and instead have concentrated on technology. Not a bad thing, I admit, but the monkeys must continue to evolve, otherwise how do we tackle the second question?

What, And Where, Are These Cages?

The cages are all around. Lets start with the personal level. Many monkeys are trapped within themselves, their personal beliefs and fear of change, holds them trapped inside a very, very small cage. Oh sure, it is a transportable cage, and the monkey can have a quite satisfactory life, but the cage is still there, restricting growth. Most of the more evolved monkeys have already found this cage, broken out of it, and now know what's outside. The cage is still there of course, but now the monkey knows the way out.

There's also the physical cages, these are all around us too, but most of them can be broken out of with willpower. The home of the monkey is a cage; front door, back door, fenced in; very territorial, very anal. It's easy to move out of one home, thereby breaking free of the cage, and into another, banged up inside a similar cage. Territorial matters will remain unresolved for years yet, while the monkeys continue to throw shit at each other across borders.

Another cage, which some of the monkeys are attempting to escape from right now, is the planet these monkeys live on. This particular cage is one of the biggies, and the sooner the monkeys have escaped, the better. When this happens, an evolutionary leap will occur, the monkeys will become Space-Faring Monkeys. Upwards and outwards monkeys!

But still there are cages all around these particular monkeys. Existing within the realms of the physical universe, means that these monkeys, if they decide to remain there, are going to have to find a way to escape from their universe, before it implodes. But of course, only to another cage... One hell of an evolutionary leap will hit these monkeys when they manage that, they will then become Multiple-Dimension-Faring Monkeys!.

Here's hoping that these monkeys get it together in time and keep going. They might all be wrong, but what do you expect from a bunch of monkeys?
