Blog #8: The Key to the perfect Utopia

First and foremost, there will be no such thing as a perfect society. How can there be a perfect society when humanity can never be perfect in the first place? This truth is the reason why we can never be God. Once we start to think that we are able to achieve the highest level of perfection, what do you think will happen to the future of society? We can’t be so ignorant now, can we?

Although this is extreme, one of the solutions to curb violence is for us to become slaves of the law. If we establish that the law is always greater than humanity, then we will have no other choice but to obey it. If we are slaves, then what power do we have to retaliate against the higher authority? I know… this statement is far too extreme(I myself feel uncomfortable reading that), but I believe there is a sliver of truth to it. Now, do I think it’s a good idea to become slaves of the law? Absolutely not. But, if we take a closer look at what can happen if humanity does do it, perhaps we can see why it can be appealing to some people.

To have a perfect utopia is to no longer have the nature of humanity. To have a perfect utopia is to become blind to humanity’s own slavery to the law. In other words, to have a perfect utopia is to have humanity become like sheep. They are bound to the law. They cannot live without it. Their freedom becomes stripped away in the name of perfection.

There is one law I think will effectively create the perfect utopia: There will be no free will. Without free will, humanity will not be so complex or unpredictable. Thus, it is easier for that utopia to function properly. They won’t have the free will to rebel against the utopia, they won’t have the free will to take up arms and fight against the law. Everyone in that utopia will become like slaves fooling themselves into thinking that they have the perfect lives… even though they don’t have the free will to differentiate between a perfect life and a cruel life.

The destruction of free will will prevent society from thinking what is right and wrong, which is a bit of an issue. That is why another law will be implemented . Everyone shall believe their utopia is perfect. If they believe that they live in a perfect utopia, they won’t think of anything negative against the utopia. Why would they when it is perfect in their minds? Combine the two laws together and we have mindless slaves in a fool’s paradise. It is the perfect utopia. No one will think otherwise… No one will be capable of thinking otherwise.

So, are you willing to become a slave in order to reside in a utopia? How much are you willing to sacrifice for a perfect life? Your own life, perhaps? A life for a life… how fitting.
