Recipe of the Singularity

Many people like me feel like the world is progressing too slowly. But what if it progressed too fast? Nature evolves by approximating a balance and correcting itself when it's wrong. If it goes too slow, all that can be lost is time, and what's a few years, centuries, millennia, in the greater scheme of things? But if it goes too fast, the worst that can happen is the end of the world.
As evolution advances, it grows in complexity, and so becomes more and more sensitive, so that every factor has greater and greater effects, especially as it accelerates. So in the end, it will all be worth the wait, and all the suffering it entailed. Because if we all knew from the beginning what to do, we'd do it before we were ready to.
The Singularity is a very delicate recipe, and the ingredients all have to be balanced just right before they're combined, or the mixture will explode. Caution can make the difference between the universe being consumed by a cancer or being awakened into divinity. Even if we have to wait a thousand years longer to make sure that we'll have the experience to deal with the Singularity when it occurs, it will be worth it. Everything is worth that. It gives meaning to all our sufferings: they're part of the experiment of the human endeavor, in preparation of its final project.
