Meditation should be compulsory for all citizen of post-industrialized societies.

Okay, so i extended to you the opportunity to reread my first three sentences. When you can find the statement which says I propose a law that meditation be compulsory we can then debate on that statement. I wont reply to most of your argument because it seems centered around topics you wish to debate about. If you want to debate legislation, please create your own debate. No ones talking about coercing anyone to meditate, I think that goes counter to what meditation is about. Okay wow, you have really went off on one. Maybe my argument was not clear enough, kind sir I will break it down for you. 1. I propose no law that people must meditate as it no person has the right to have authority over another as this is wholly wrong. 2. Education about meditation should be taught in all schools as compulsory, (the inference which should have been made is primary school as the work load is not as hectic, maybe it can be a unit within religious studies or health education). 3. Meditation education should be offered to all citizen on a free and leisurely basis. (Maybe go and speak with your family doctor and they can put you on a course). With regard to what you wrote about technology, I don"t see the point you have tried to make, I am right? It is true, not everybody is connected to Facebook or Twitter or Google+ or VK or Youtube or whatever. Can you process all of the information in your newsfeed? How about news networks? or procrastinative web searches or Reddit? Or even Debate.org? Can you with your conscious mind tell me that you do not spend at least an hour a day on one or all of these websites? Can you tell me 5% of what you saw today whilst being online? To maintain your sanity the brain has a filter, but we are human, just as imperfect as it is for me to empty my bowels before I go to sleep at night, our brains are imperfect also and stores information in our subconscious minds to refer to later, even if we don"t want it to. I never said humans become more intelligent with the overload of information, whilst I agree to an extent, you probably inferred burdened. No actually meditation has the opposite effect and teaches the brain how to better process information. The quietness gives a chance for the brain to create new neural pathways giving you more access to the information which you have taken in. It also promotes emotional intelligence by aiding the recovery of the amygdala from stress and trauma, it thickens the gray matter in areas of the brain associated with self-awareness, it quietens self talk creating a new default mode sort of speak and it boosts focus and resilience. There are many more benefits associated with meditations, I will leave it to you to do your own research. Okay so now your quoting something from the origin of species. Have you read it? Survival of the fittest is a very small part of that book. I can see the connection your pulling here with stress conducive to innovation, as if we were not stressed and scared of extinction nothing would get done. Maybe to you this world seems extremely corrupt and unfair, that"s more reason for you to take up meditation for 10 minutes a day. i promise your perception will change very quickly. And what other galaxies have you ventured to? Do you know anything about meditation? Honestly? It seems to me kind sir that you are an expert at arguing against any points that come into your mind. Take time to reread and consider my initial argument. Meditate on it. Pardon me for the poor structuring.
