The Birth Revolution Is a Humanities Revolution
Humanities revolution occurs only once in centuries.
Humanity evolves as the scientific and humanities revolution correct each other.
● The Scientific Revolution vs. the Humanities Revolution
Revolutions of thought are harder than revolutions of action.
While action-based revolutions are often visible and immediate, revolutions of thought evolve over time.
The scientific revolution is about action; the humanities revolution is about thought.
The scientific revolution brings convenience; the humanities revolution brings culture.
The scientific revolution progresses linearly; the humanities revolution can sometimes regress.
The scientific revolution happens instantly; the humanities revolution takes time.
The two revolutions are interconnected, and humanity evolves through mutual correction.
For example:
The Industrial Revolution was a revolution of action.
The Socialist Revolution was a revolution of thought.
The Industrial Revolution reshaped how we live and work, while the Socialist Revolution reshaped how we think and coexist.
One transformed factories and cities; the other reshaped ideologies and societies.
Today, The Birth Revolution is both:
action on the outside, thought on the inside.
Having two babies requires happiness as well as the confidence to be happy.
That’s why The Birth Revolution may seem simple but is actually challenging.
Change in thought must come first, followed by action.
The Birth Revolution values happiness over money, and modified capitalism over traditional capitalism.
Unlike the socialist revolution of the past, The Birth Revolution requires no bloodshed—only a shift in thinking.
● The Scientific Revolution Alone Leads Humanity to Ruin
Today, science means convenience.
And convenience means money.
When we become consumed by science, our humanity collapses.
When science reaches its peak, humanity reaches its end.
Look at the existential crises humanity now faces.
Aren’t they caused by science?
The climate crisis
The AI crisis
Consider the major scientific revolutions:
The Industrial Revolution
The AI Revolution
Science alone is not enough.
Humanity evolves as the scientific and humanities revolutions correct each other.
Only through mutual correction do we evolve.
Look at the humanities revolutions:
The socialist revolution tried to correct the excesses of the Industrial Revolution.
Communism ultimately failed—But the effort to restore balance mattered.
Even the root of the low birthrate crisis is science.
Convenience.
Money.
Now is the time to correct it again—
Through a new humanities revolution:
The Birth Revolution.
