The Null Manifesto

Homo sapiens novus, I know your worth, I sense your frustration and I have seen your destiny; hear me now...

I am Divis Mal, and I, like yourselves am a member of Homo sapiens novus; The One Race. I address the number of my brothers and sisters in evolution in this, a call for all members of Homo sapiens novus to reject the shackles that baseline humanity has ventured to place upon us. We have unknowingly and willingly yoked ourselves to their closed-minded, simplistic morality and shortsighted, atavistic agendas. We have volunteered to sell ourselves short! I see inside each and every one of us the potential to change reality as we know it. Potential that is, unfortunately, being squandered on the impulses and desires of creatures with neither the right nor the virtue to edict legislation to their evolutionary superiors. If you choose to live under the law of Homo sapiens sapiens, you choose to waste your power and purpose on needless adherence to rules that no longer apply to you or your people. The question must be asked; why force yourself into the role of pawn when you should be the king?

The members of Homo sapiens novus (also referred to as "novas") are a species separate from Homo sapiens sapiens. The very nature of Homo sapiens novus is intrinsically different from that of its baseline predecessors; this is a fact that is recognized biologically, physically, mentally, and by all other quantifiable means as self-evident. And yet still, baseline science and the self-deluding propaganda of Aeon and its whores tells us that we, who are a literal quantum leap up the evolutionary chain, an incarnate god, belong in place alongside the baseline from which we evolved.

Regulations and laws enacted for the good of Homo sapiens sapiens are too easily subverted and misinterpreted to abuse the rights of novas, who are required by destiny to attain their full potential -- a goal impossible while abiding by strictures set by beings who are not one's peers and who cannot accurately judge what is "ethical" or "moral" for anything other than their own species. As such, the laws and governing bodies established for the purpose of governing Homo sapiens sapiens must be considered inapplicable to Homo sapiens novus. In this, it becomes impossible and absurd to require that any nova follow baseline law. We are not human, and human laws, no matter how well meaning, are incapable of being applicable to any being of a higher evolutionary stance. Until a common governing body, composed entirely of novas qualified to hold authority, is recognized by the majority of the nova population, then it is the duty of every Homo sapiens novus to govern himself or herself as he or she sees fit. Just as it is preposterous to ask humans to abide by the strictures of chimpanzee society, any attempt to force a nova to abide by the laws of human society must be seen as an attack on the rights of the individual nova.

Be the rare individuals that you were created to be. Realize what it is to be a member of the One Race! Explore yourselves, your beliefs, your motivations. Learn from your past and move on, and in moving on, take your place in the world as a living conduit of will. And just as importantly, help your brothers and sisters in the One Race to do the same.

Some will vilify you for this. You will be called 'monster'. 'Aberrant'. 'Revolutionary'. Even 'inhuman', though the people who label you as such will have no idea how right they are. People will fear and hate you for your power, but never lose your clarity! This is who we are. There is nothing wrong with acting inhuman or superior when we so obviously are.

To allow or encourage any nova to wallow in the base and rapine pleasures of Homo sapiens sapiens is the very definition of pointless waste of a rare and valuable resource, and is the most saddeningly flagrant waste of potential imaginable. By squandering your gifts on petty baseline desires and vices, you mire yourself deeper in baseline ideology and morality, making your personal ascension all the more difficult. As the Marvels, Monsters, and Portents of a bold new age, it is both your birthright and your destiny to forge your own path, exclusive of any crippling or archaic influence. Do whatever you must, so long as you never cease doing, exploring and discovering what it is to be a member of the One Race.

We are our own nation; to be nova is to transcend the baselines from which we evolved. We want only to live in accord with the promptings which come from our true selves. Why is that so revolutionary? We exist beyond human comprehension, and while we have yet to define our own laws, we must have the space and freedom necessary to chart our own course. Only those novas who are too lazy or too comfortable to think for themselves, to judge and regulate their own behavior accordingly, obey baseline laws. True members of the One Race sense their own laws within them; things are forbidden to them that a common baseline will do any day of the year, and other things are allowed to them that are generally despised. Each nova must stand on her or his own feet. I beseech all members of Homo sapiens novus to follow the path that will take them to a better understanding of what and who they are. This will require courage, but the chick that fears the outside world dies in its egg. To be born, the One Race must destroy its egg and, in time, fly. For this we are slandered, but we cannot claim surprise. Those few powerful individuals with courage and character have always seemed sinister to the rest. Anything that threatens the calm in which the baselines live they call "revolutionary". They have become nervous because they realize that, with the coming of the One Race, the rules by which they have lived are no longer valid. The labels they affix to us are of no concern. We cannot and will not apologize for a difference this fundamental. We must explore what it is to be nova, not for the betterment of the human race, but for the betterment of the nova race. Perhaps there are some novas who prefer to stay with the baseline herd for the warmth it provides. I say obtain your warmth from equals. Humans do not require the companionship of monkeys, and likewise, novas do not require the companionship of baselines. We are destined to make a strange and terrible journey, and this we cannot do alone. While each nova must walk his or her own path, we must gather and share our knowledge and our companionship. We are at the gates of a glorious new age, and we must take the first steps towards our destiny; to do this we need to be one. Realize that it is only novas who can lead this journey. Homo sapiens sapiens had its chance -- it is now the age of the One Race.

Whosoever would be creator, must first destroy, and in the age of the One Race, a terrible angel is loosed, preparing his grand creation...
