The Nature of Humans. Interpretations and Contradictions.
This essay examines if humans are increasing, evolving, their knowledge of the Universe or adding only Interpretations and contradictions. It establishes a precept then examines the data as the Universe; natural; state and the human; constructed, artificial; state. Conclusions are then drawn.
Precept
Humans sense the Universe in the past due to the maximum speed of light in a vacuum.
To a human the Universe has already occurred before they can sense, interact, entangle with it.
This; relativistic constraint; naturally limits their knowledge to temporary interpretation and Contradiction.

Data
Universe
The Universe began as a mathematical singularity that contained all available potential to create all of the entropic, random, high information states that exist today. It will increase in entropy until all of the entropy; information; in it is separated beyond the point where it can interact and entangle. At this point the entropy; information; will decline until it reaches zero entropy.
The Process of the Universe must be mirrored in its components and so humans will begin with the highest potential to create information, achieve a peak information interchange and then decline into a zero information state.
The increase in entropy; random information, contradiction; is a part of the process of the Universe and cannot be avoided.
Humans
There are approximately 7,000,000,000 humans living on Earth currently.
There have been approximately 15 dead humans for every one living on the planet.
This would allow for 105,000,000,000 to 108,000,000,000 humans who have ever been born on Earth.
The current birth rate for the Earth allows for 148 new additions to the world population every minute.

Each human has had an individual, relativistic, sensory experience through their different ways of sensing, interacting, entangling, interpreting, recording and communicating the Universe.

Languages
There are currently approximately 6500 active languages on Earth.
Each with different ways of interpreting and communicating all that the human users sense, interact with, entangle with, interpret, record and communicate relating to the Universe.

Calendars
There are 85 recorded ancient and modern calendars from 2055 BC to the present. Each proposes a different way of sensing, interacting, entangling and communicating the passage of the Earth around the Sun and the movements of the Universe as perceived from the Earth.

Civilizations
From 3500 BC to 2010 AD there have been approx. 150 civilizations on Earth. Each with different ways of sensing, interacting, entangling, interpreting, recording and communicating the Universe.

Religions
There are an estimated 4,200 to 10,000 religions active on Earth presently.

Political Ideologies
There are approximately 500 different political ideologies active on Earth.

Literature
There are an estimated 130,000,000 books currently in the World.

Each is an individual interpretation and communication of their creators belief relating to the Universe and the humans within it.
Media
There have been an estimated 4,163,937 titles of films, television programs and video games.

Science
‘Science is the pursuit and application of knowledge and understanding of the natural and social world following a systematic methodology based on evidence.’

It is however dependant on previous explanations from less informed human sensory experience.
It is therefore constantly being evolved, interpreted and contradicted.
War
The total number of wars in human history range from 4,345 to 14,500 in number since 3000 - 3500 BC to 1981.
Taking an average from these figures 9,423 wars have taken place over 4,981 years allowing for an average rate of war of 1 war every 1.8 years.
Humans have therefore been at war every year since prehistoric times, 3000 BC, to the present time 2015.
Currently 56% of the planet is at War.

Wars grow out of entropy; information; and accelerate existing entropy; information; to a zero level.
They are therefore major causes of interpretation and contradiction in human society.
Conclusions
Entropy is the level of randomness in any system. It is also the level of Information in any system.
In the Natural; Universe; entropy; information; begins with the highest potential, achieves a peak interchange and then declines into a zero state.
The increase in entropy; random information, contradiction; is a part of the process of the Universe and cannot be avoided.
All of the human constructs increase the level of entropy; information artificially.
Humans can be considered to be sensing, interacting, entangling with the Universe.
They are not increasing or evolving, their knowledge of the Universe.
They are adding only Interpretations and contradictions.
