Yesterday I mentioned that we had been re-watching "Quatermass and the Pit", which was first shown as a TV series on BBC TV in 1957. Some programmes look very dated, but this did not.
One of the themes explored was of racial memory, deep within us. This got me thinking.
Just as a bird knows how to migrate or build a nest, what do we have as humans deep within us? What unknown features do we possess that we are totally unaware about? Do we all have an evil streak deep within us, perhaps triggered by something? Maybe it is something else, more benign, that somehow binds all humanity?
The truth is we are aware of so little about ourselves. Maybe over time we will learn more about ourselves. Really we know so little.
