Has the 'human' reached a state in development where our desires have become larger then our vessel?

Why does it seem that humanity is comming to an end?  The flood 9 thousand years ago and the series of ones that ripped through the gorge in Oregon and Washington certainly killed alot of people, but we moved on.  Even though the atleast relative costal flooding that ended the 8 ice ages in human history and the ice ages themselves ended as much as most of the world population of humans every time; we still went on.  Why should it end this time?  The Mayan long count calender implied that in a year is merely a transition to the next cyle with some trouble in the process.  Mythology in a tradition sense with the exception of current or recent soothsayers has left nothing definative as far as a date of the end.  No doubt we are closer than last year or last age, but that is not the point of eschetology.  Frustration and repression are the problems oif this age.   Desires have no end is true and it is reeking havoc.  Magick as the art and science of religion should be moving towards using what we know and have in satisfaction and awareness.  Then we will defeat both.  The new brain science will help in achieving altere states of consciousness.  If the definition of magick is delebrate changes in consciousness for an intent, I have pursued that intensly.  I have had sucess in mimicking the effects of drugs and combinations of drugs accordingly in safety and with a degree of control.  Other balances and joys should be easier to pursue in righteousness too.  Knowledge is automatic.  Wisdom takes effort.  We choose what of these two we will spend our time on.

It (hopefully) first and foremost means alchemy of the Soul on a planet wide scale over time ... Anything else would probably be a bonus. : )
