The WH's

I’ve known myself not an active questions freak student but it so happened that this questions came on my mind.

Do the people in our times care that planet Venus rotate in a perfect pentacle (pentagram) in very four years while the people on ancient times had observed this fascinating fact in their naked eye?

Do we even care that Galileo is a European scientist and not American?

The pagans had worshipped the nature. They protected it against harm because it is their God. We are against Paganism, is that why we are exposed to air pollution, flood, green house effect, acid rains and such?

What if America id still hunted by Jason?

What if Giovanni, Shakespeare, Galileo, Da Vinci are still living today, will they be famous against Michel Jackson, Madonna, and Paris Hilton? What if Einstein became a bartender rather than a scientist? What if Noah became more like the people in his time rather than God’s follower, will we be living today? What if there are witches roaming the Earth?

What if we are all Pagans? What if the Da Vinci Code is true then we are alienated in spirituality? What if Mohammed is the sole prophet? What if Grendel was really a descendant of Cain? What if Pocahontas didn’t help Jamestown? What if the three Maggi didn’t saw Venus the night they were looking for Baby Jesus? What if Venus is rotating in hexagram rather than pentagram? What if Astrology is a subject today?

What if Rizal was born in Spain rather than Philippines? What if the people can breathe underwater? What if the fishes are flying above?

What if one day, we will wake up that Earth is on zero gravity?

What if?

We survive for a long time; people have been people and not dogs. Did it ever occur to us that it is us who made us miserable because it is us who makes our own destiny?

When a town died of cholera, who do we claim the fault? To the government because they didn’t do anything against the spread of plague, but did it ever occur to us that we are the ones who throw garbage in the river?

When a kid killed an old woman, whose flaw was it? To the parents, but did it ever occur to us that he was exposed to a corrupt society?

We invented, we sacrificed, we loved, we killed, we ate, we drank, we are concerned of ourselves but did we asked us what are we supposed to be? We might have been a new Galileo, a Shakespeare, a Rizal or even a Noah. We could have had the heart of the Ancient Greeks and the mind of Peztallozi. We could have been somebody else other than ourselves.
