Would the human race currently transcend?
Currently rewatching the show and got to thinking would the human race at this point in time, or in a prior period of time, have been worthy of transcendence?
Personally I think the answer is no given the state of the world lol but it’s still an interesting question to ponder. What would have had to have gone differently / how would things realistically need to change? Was there a period of time in which we perhaps would have achieved transcendence?
While I think this plot in the show departed a lot from where the show began, it drives an interesting lens to the theme of morality, what it means to be human and religion. If humans all believed in the same “afterlife” (or transcendence… ie same religion), would this be the only way we could achieve something enlightening like transcendence?
Sorry if this question has already been asked in this group, I’m new to this subreddit!
