Book: Xenocid



- ... Even if such thing as free will, does not exist in nature, we should still treat each other like it is to preserve the society in which we live. Because otherwise, every time somebody does something terrible, you can't punish him. There was nothing he could do - his genes, environment, or God himself forced him to do so. And every time someone will do the honourable thing, you can't submit to him, because he's just a puppet. And if you think that all around the puppet, so why talk to them? Why seek somewhere, something to create, once all your ideas, your creation, your dream or dreams - just the script that is attached to you by your puppeteer.
Hopelessness, summed up Miro.
- So we accept ourselves and all others as creatures with a will of its own. We treat each other like we are driven by the arising in the mind of intention, and not some unknown Creator. We punish criminals. We reward altruists. We are making plans for the future and put them into practice. We promise and anticipated fulfillment of the word. Everything is sewn with white thread, but when everyone believe in that the actions of others - the result of free choice, and will be treated accordingly to rights and duties, the final result will be the civilization.

I talked to Ender and his sister Valentine. She is a historian.
What does that mean?
- She is studying different books to get acquainted with the history of mankind, and then writes stories about what she could find, and passes the rest of the people.
But if history someone already stated, why did she write it?
- Because they don't understand. She helps people understand them better.
- Once lived in those times failed to understand how she came through century after it happened, maybe to understand something?
- I asked her the same question, and Valentine said that she always interprets them literally. The old writers were guided by what was important to their era, and she represents the past as it should look in the eyes of the people her age.
- So history is not the same?
- No.
But every time they take it for true coverage?
Valentina something explained about the fact that some stories may be true, others are true. I really do not understand.
- Why they did not immediately remember the history in details? Then they would not have to constantly lie to each other.

The day is over. Han FEI-Tzu tired; the eyes are cut from extended reading. A dozen times already he's set up screen colors, trying to find something quieter. Nothing helped. The last time such intense he worked while studying, but then he was young. And then he always achieved some results. I better assimilate the knowledge faster. Achievement was my reward. Now I'm old and slow, doing completely new areas, and it is possible that all these problems do not have solutions. Because of the no reward does not motivate me to work. Nothing but fatigue, stiff neck and swollen, reddened eyes.

We do everything required to deserve a place in society, but live for those hours that are spend at home. For the two of us and our children. In the history books about me will never write.

- Uninteresting life. Nothing to read, - said Olhado. But its interesting to live.

Even this story is known to me from the head Ender. It belongs to him. Same grain he took from someone else, from something I read once. He combined it with what I thought, until finally she gained for him the true value. It's all there in his head.

But within my own century, or even a little more, they find tens of thousands of values in the mere fact that we open. But most of them are fake. Even if most false, if false or foolish are ninety-nine out of every hundred, then ten thousand ideas, still hundreds of good. That is how they cope with their own stupidity, with the brevity of his own life and small memory.

How to distinguish good people from bad, since all evil is somehow given to convince themselves that they are doing well, even doing something terrible? But the good people can believe that they are bad, even if you do good?

- You've never been to something suitable. Only this does not mean that you do not need.
- What do you mean?
Happiness to the same extent may depend on useful, and completely unnecessary things.

Certainly, this normality was a bit stretched. Only Valentina my own experience I know that normality is always something feigned, and people are constantly playing roles that, in their opinion, they are required to play.
