| Summary | |||||||||
| The realization that another intelligent species has evolved will have a profound effect on how humans respond to each other. | |||||||||
| Description | |||||||||
| It is one thing to legislate the world's response to this alien dawn; it is quite another for us, as both individuals and communities, to adapt to what is, in effect, a species-wide existential crisis. Our behaviors will inevitably change, now that we know the sky is a gateway to the unimaginable. Countless organizations will spring up to cater to new technologies, new desires, and new fears. Borders will crumble, and new ones will arise. There will be mobs, there will be cults, there will be despots, and, most of all, there will be countless souls in need of support and guidance. Plotting the likely path of the coming societal change is necessary before we can meaningfully prepare for it. The world's leading sociologists, psychologists, and behaviorists have formed a symposium to understand and predict what is to come, and from there we can plan effective policies, treaties, laws, means of planet-wide communication, and, optimistically, hitherto undreamed of ways to ensure humanity can stand together as one in the days to come. | |||||||||

| Quote | |||||||||
| "You contain multitudes. Every breath you take may contain atoms of Tutankhamun, or Christ, or Asimov. For any human to think of themselves as intrinsically apart from others is absurd: we are, all of us, made from each other." Superior Judith Howell, The Servants Module 2, Chapter 1 of The Infinite You self-improvement course | |||||||||
