<b>(About this Omega Research Wiki)</b>

== Goal of this site ==

* To help trigger awareness of what has been protected from our awareness since we became intelligent hominids.
* To help trigger awareness of what, apart from the above, has been actively hidden from our awareness since the start of the agricultural revolution.
* To bring awareness and understanding of the evolutionary rules and necessities for the emergence, wherever in the universe, of any high intelligence, ever.
* To bring awareness and understanding of the inescapable and necessary evolutionary transitory phase in between the rise of meme-power structures and the (future) start of conscious evolution.
* To bring awareness of the radically impersonal character of the entities in charge of human societies since the agricultural revolution.
* To bring understanding of humanity's present position in the final stages of our own present transitory phase in the evolution of high intelligence, which transition has lasted for some 10.000 years now.
* To spread awareness of the underlying mechanisms, and their evolutionary stability, that enhance and maintain superstition and ignorance on a massive scale up till today, supporting the impersonal meme-power-structures in charge.
* To help bring closer Point Omega.
* [[To finally put an end to war, destruction, genocide and wholesale rape|To finally put an end to war, destruction, genocide and wholesale rape.]]

== Definitions of "Point Omega" ==

*[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Omega_point Point Omega Wiki]
* The end of (customary) history.
* A transition point in human history, equally or even more important than was the agricultural revolution.
* The dissolution of the impersonal power structures that controlled human life for thousands of years.
* Self-actualization versus truncated phenotypes in humans.
* The end of the evolutionary stability of mass neuroses.
* Growing understanding of what is enlightenment and what it is not.
* Transition from the evolution of consciousness towards conscious evolution.
* [[The end of the second intermediary phase before any evolving intelligence, whenever and wherever in the universe, reaches maturity and full deployment.]]

== What this site is about and what it is not==

'''This site presents data, based on scientific research, suggesting that:'''

# A transition in human society and human behaviour, as described by Teilhard de Chardin and labeled by him as Point Omega, is possible and even likely to occur at some point in human evolution.
# Such a Point Omega transition seems likely to occur in a not very far future. According to some authors, it has already started and is underway.
# "Enlightenment", "spiritual awareness", "God-consciousness" and similar descriptions of certain states of the human mind, can be described and explained in terms from ethology and behavioural sciences. Also their function can be explained and predictions derived about their likelihood and occurrence in human beings.
# There is a very simple common denominator to what many prophets have originally told their people, many messages of which have in the course of time been deformed and corrupted into organized religions that invariably block awareness and understanding of the original messages, wielding massive power over their followers instead of liberating them. This simple common denominator concerns the truth of how the behaviour of ourselves is organized and what alternative perspectives we would have, once awareness of these relatively simple truths has become common knowledge.

'''This site ''does'' however ''not'' deal with phenomena like:'''

# Morphogenetic fields
# Telepathy
# Clearvoyance
# Premonition
# Aura's and chakra's
# Notions from organized religions
# And other phenomena that are beyond the boundaries of present scientific understanding.

'''This site ''does'' deal with known and well established reality'''

It is clear that scientific data as available today cannot give us a complete picture of the universe and its functioning, let alone of our own functioning therein.
No doubt that in the future we will become aware and gather scientific proof of mechanisms that until now seem rather mysterious and incomprehensible to us.
Our picture of the world is incomplete and will always be incomplete, no matter how far our scientific understanding will expand.

This site will not deal with any subject that is still beyond the boundaries of scientific knowledge, nor will we indulge in speculation. This site only deals with data and knowledge that have become firmly rooted in scientific research.

It will present a number of notions, well rooted in scientific research, that, each separately, nevertheless are until now only known in very limited circles of specialists, in spite of the fact that most of these notions are not difficult to understand from a technical point of view. This implies that humanity in principle could have grasped these notions already long ago.

Each of these notions is however subject to specific blindnesses in our collective human awareness.
This site puts a number of these not widely known notions from different scientific disciplines together and will show that removal of the blind spots from a variety of research fields produces an overall picture that explains human history and development from an unexpected angle and allows us to obtain a clearer and very surprising picture of our human potential and future.

'''[[Curiosity replacing fear, rather than science replacing belief systems|This site argues that it is not so important that we exchange "belief systems" for "science", but rather that we exchange "fear" for "curiosity"]]'''.
