my goal is not to discuss the battles that will happen but , from personal experience , the battles that were , even though conflicts past , present , and future , in elements of the self , the self as a whole , and all things greater at least in scope , albeit perhaps not in purpose ( the smaller being more diffused than a grain of sand on the beach next to the latter but perhaps animals and human animals in particular having a unique consciousness that the universe lacks ) , seem part of the same war which , like sperm cells compelled into a marathon , are part of this natural coercion to cull and eliminate the weaker of competing alternatives of the smaller to form a more perfect nexus to the larger ( the cells to tissue , tissue to the organ , the organs to the organism , man to society , society to the ecosystem , the world of ecosystems to a solar system , the solar system to the galaxy , it to the universe that is one organ , perhaps , in this malevolent entity called god ) .
