"Cold Iron"

In Brazil there is a popular expression that says, "There's no point in hammering cold iron"

In the New Testament it is recorded a saying of Jesus warned: ¨ Do not give pearls to swine "

The meaning is the same, and teaching is proven throughout the history of human evolution.

The professional trainers of animals are able to train them in any circus business or home, using a basic educational principle: when it hits reward, punish when it learns.

The human species is not able to learn any pedagogy that is used.

The obvious proof is traffic, excessive use of alcohol, drugs harmful to human health, improper diet, unnecessary wars, urban violence, poverty, hunger, disease, corruption, terrorism, pedophilia, child exploitation, violence against women and children waste of public funds, mismanagement, lies in electoral campaigns, economic speculation, and the list is endless examples that demonstrate man's inability to learn, even with pain and severe punishments.

The human species does not learn, the units are filled with trapped, hospitals and psychiatric care leave no doubt about man's inability to learn.

Council of the mother, the pastor, Father, psychologists, nothing resolves the human inability to learn from past mistakes.

The human species has always and will continue acting irresponsibly and irrationally in the face of dangers and threats to survival of our species.

Any reader aware and conscious of the international press, will be amazed at our inability to change the future.

The human species is unable to change the future for several reasons:

The first is because they do not study, does not investigate, does not question the historical past of our species, our planet, the universe.

The second reason is the desire of profit, financial greed, passion for easy profit, which inhibit clear vision.

Any kind of passion, love is, ideological, religious, political, including financial, inhibits the ability to think and act.

We are all passionate about the money, consumerism, making it impossible to view other ways and means of civilizing processes.

Overpopulation, environmental disasters and the financial waste of lives, caused by wars, bloody revolutions, terrorist attacks, crimes of passion, war, traffic, urban violence, finally, there is plenty of evidence to support and denounce the bleak future of our species.

And it was always the same, since the Garden of Eden when Eve and Adam did not obey the warnings of God.

No one believed Noah

Moses was angry at the unbelief and indifference of his people before the divine commandments.

The Bible Old Testament prophets were ridiculed, harassed, beaten and ignored by the people.

Jesus himself was crucified by hysterical crowds in search of emotions.

Paul, John the Baptist, Peter, finally, Buddha, Mohammed, Socrates, Plato, Gandhi, Copernicus, Galileo, thousands of examples of visionary men who "knit cold iron" and lives spent "giving pearls before swine."

Medicine, Astronomy, Philosophy, Education, Geology, Sociology, Psychology, Music, Art, and other areas of science and knowledge gained over millions of years of evolution, are disciplines that disseminate knowledge to a handful of visionary experts.

The crowds are mobilized and accessible to other more pressing interests: sex, drugs, fun, fantasies, bread, circuses and other issues also urgently needed.

The climate issue, caution is always just one of many that do not appeal to the public.

Warnings and daily news are repetitive and unnecessary, although distressing.

Now just waiting to happen, but with the certainty that we will not learn.

The only definitive and final solution to our species is the "mass extinction".

There is no hope, is an illusion to think that will change after millions of years, with all the technological progress achieved, we do not have the ability to learn from dogs, elephants, dolphins, horses, oxen, birds, and many other species living in our home .
