We have come to consider that certain experiences of Mankind are not only notable for their temporal impact but can be perceived as evincing nuanced, symbolic meaning. Such analogous perception can symbolically amount to the positive affirmation of human behavioral experience or contrasting instructive warnings. There are as many such symbolic messages as there exist personal inclinations for such contemplative symbolism. The sensitivity and interpretation of such analogical symbols may be universal or singularly nuanced.
In thematic illustration of such universal symbolic messages, we would proffer the following ubiquitously shared experiences and our personal perception of the symbolic message, reasonably derived:
[Chernobyl and Fuhishima]: These colossal disasters empirically warn of the horrific, dystopic consequences of erroneous or accidental operation of nuclear power plants.
They are also capable of a perceived symbolic message as to the mortal danger undertaken by Man’s tampering with Nature. Such a dire warning was similarly expressed in our interpretation of Mary Shelly’s Victorian novel, “Frankenstein.
[ The Holocaust]: This incomparably evil event, in which upwards of 6,000,000 Jewish souls were programmatically murdered, is unparalleled in the annals of the human history of prejudice and hatred of “other” human beings.
The horrific record of this hellish event is capable of being seen as a dire warning of the existence and eternal sub-rosa endurance of the primitive capacity of Homo Sapiens for atrocious evil, as well as contrasting demonstrable beneficial humanism.
[Penicillin] The discovery and use of Penicillin (Alexander Fleming, 1928) was a singularly beneficial medical event in the treatment of himan infection and disease.
The conceivable symbolic message of the celebrated event broadcasts the aspirational belief in the ultimate capability of medical science to cure not only bacterially caused disease, but to effectively challenge and to eliminate all of humanity’s medical problems. We hope this symbolic message of hope is realized.
[Twin Towers] This singular event, 9/11/01, was a shock and surprise to all of America, and doubtless, the international free world.
Symbolically, and instructively, 9/11 eternally represents the extent of reach of vulnerability and danger of humanity to atavistic acts of war.
[ Donald J.Trump’s Barbaric Destruction of the East Wing of The White House]:
This idiopathic Trumpian-hubristic act of barbaric vandalism was not only ostensibly evil, but also instructive as to the singularly self-interested, non-socialized quality of the singularly decrepit and bizarre persona of Donald J. Trump. It is revealing of his neurotic and amoral aspiration for unlimited power and positive self-regard. This event, together with a dumpster-full, foetid accumulation of Trump detritus, would be pragmatically avoidable by the empirically responsible process of protecting the Republic by the exigently necessary, ()non-partisan) vetting of all aspirants to the American Presidency.
