Masturbation threatens the planet.
Could societal levels of greed and fear be increased by stirring sexual impulses into the parts of the brain that do mathematics and logic?

Why do our civilizations keep destroying themselves and each other? Some would have us believe it is human nature or lizard brains destroying this planet. Or that we're not learning our history. Or it's the liberals. Or republicans. (Okay, maybe republicans.)

From the Wall Street greed destroying economies and BP-type greed and stupidity destroying the planet to fundamentalists and extremists of all stripe wreaking havoc- maybe sometimes the answers really are simple and right in front of us.

16. here's a transcript I made

Hello Earth, this is Ron. We've been studying you for thousands of years, your time, and we think we've figured out what your problem is. At first we called it human nature but recently our top scientists concluded that what keeps destroying your civilizations and threatens all life on Earth is that you've been masturbating with the wrong hand.

By using the tool hand you burn in long lasting neural pathways that detour sexual energy through the logical mathematical side of the brain, even if you're just thinking about it, especially the guys, with all that up and down hammer type motion. If it gets stuck in there a wad of that sex on the wrong brain can cause lots of problems.

For example in there where the numbers are done sexual energy gets satisfaction from more, bigger, faster... that's where a lot of greed comes from.

Where the logic is done, that impatient sexual energy just wants quick easy answers and certainty to get the thinking over with. But nature is complicated and full of uncertainty so the tool handers get stressed out and scared until someone makes up some quick easy answers. Pretty soon certainty is better than truth and logic goes out the porthole.

That's why your leaders are very certain and encourage masturbation with the tool hand whenever possible.

We encourage you to switch hands and send that sex energy over there directly into the creative orgasmic side of the brain where the orgasms usually happen so you can begin loving your planet, exploring your galaxy, meeting your neighbors, and having bigger orgasms.

However, if you do not stop masturbating with the tool hand soon a device will be placed on your moon to force you to masturbate with the other hand until the problem is solved. Thank you for listening.

xxxx

At some point in human evolution populations began delaying the age of reproduction and the serious masturbation started. And so it came to pass that humans began learning sex with the tool hand, the sword hand, the hammer hand.

20. thanks, but did you know the Koran says man can only have sex with
his wife "and that which the right hand possesses?"

were they talking about slaves and captives, or fingers? what do they do these days?

were they just making sure there were more fighters than artists?

27. I'm not really worried about what the Koran has to say on the matter. Or the Bible.
But, carry on. Don't let me get in the way of this potential bonanza of a thread.

23. you don't think it might make a difference?
if the left hand is connected to the creative orgasmic side of the brain and the right hand is connected to the mathematical side of the brain?

there's a lot of fear and certitude in politics these days.

26. No I don't think it makes a difference for politics, and
I really don't think it makes a difference which hand you use, either.

This is the weirdest, kookiest theory I've seen on the DU for a really long time.
