OPENING AUTHORITY (ΚΑΙΝΟΥΡΓΙΑ ΑΡΧΗ)

The digital age that should mark people’s improved and more comfortable lives has shifted a balance of modern human beings. Any real feeling and experience is now considered obsolete and anything we are new to try, banal. Social networks determine our relationships, which either do not expand or do not evolve to a large extent in their absence. At the same time, society suffers from difficult economic problems. Corrupt governments of states could only bring the situation to the end of the barley. A barbour that can only be crossed with real values. But also. Ethical principles are missing from governments, civil servants, education, young people from all over the world. Every act is considered normal as long as it satisfies our egoism. And if this egoism leads to at least one subtle spiritual investigation or an attempt to rehabilitate the labour market, we are lucky. Because most of them imitate the prominence and dreams. Most try to win the beauty when it should not have a place in their lives. What beauty do we talk to? Each defines it differently. The issue is that what is now considered to be a “coul” is often the one that destroys the whole. But everything is good! The cigarettes in each recess are scattered, such as margarites on a mountain pasture, and the graffiti are fired in the urban galleries, making a spectacle... What beautiful our cities are! Car smoke does not disturb us. Forgotten bins do not tempt us. It is enough that our cities are not flooded by climate change. It is enough that COP27 did not discuss us at all, but about something bitter African farmers who cannot feed their children.

If at least half of these problems could be solved by 2040, I would be happy. But we will find the values to bridge the gap between modern realities and real life?

I wake up to a voice instructing me to make black coffee. While I'm awake, a mini-robot cleans my rooms and living room I sit at a chair and drink coffee with my wife. From the garden I take organic and hydroponic grown plants and soil. I put it in recycled crockery which is thermally treated. After that, we drive off in our electric car, which only goes to the shop. In the shop, he arranges the necessary things on special panels, and in a few minutes the robot delivers the packed and packed arm. Let us go to the kitchen. Putem holograma czytelamo vijesti i zanimnosti. Finally, let's go behind the chair and take the food that the machine has prepared. Let's put the tanjures in the laundry. Finally, I am putting water and mineral in the drone which is now in the garden. Let's go to the kitchen where we are making a shake by voice. I then go to the kitchen, where I spend the evening using the hologram screen and the app writes the text I dictate. In the evening, we sit in front of the big screen and watch entertainment broadcasts while I run the air-conditioning from the cold sleeping room. We round off the day with vitamins and a sugary hot drink

In 2040, there are no more non-recyclable plastics. Everything that is produced can be recycled and used to make new products. Rivers and oceans are clean, climate change is less pronounced. People have become more tolerant and have much more empathy for other people and animals. The cure for all types of cancer has been found, the health system has become much better and health care is available to everyone. There is almost no social inequality. Hunger in the world is eradicated, and rich people try to help those who are poor as much as possible.

Dear Europe, how lovely to see you occupied by the sun of God and the faith in God. How pleasant it is to live in a community that prays together, that goes to the World without going to the Holy Mass, something that was impossible to imagine some 20 years ago when churches were closed and there was no such way of life. It is more pleasant to live in a land that does not care for consumerism, but which respects freedom and the citizen, in which the politicians who are chosen from the nation are subordinate to the nation and serve and counsel for it. We are all sober and we believe that this can remain the case.

It's February 18, 2050. On this harsh winter's day, everything outside is frozen. The ground is covered with 50 centimeters of snow. We're used to it: for 10 years running, snow has fallen in abundance all over the world. Over my head, the birds have been replaced by flying cars, those strange machines that no one thought would ever fly. After polluting the ground with their petroleum-based rubber tires, they're now polluting the sky. It's a good thing that not everyone can afford these machines, otherwise it would be just as messy as it was on the ground back then.
