Nothingness and Being

Let's see . . . to start with we need a vocabulary shared between us. We can avoid false argument by assuming the near identical nature of ourselves one to the other, so that when we disagree it is usually a misunderstanding of words not intent.

"For what shall it profit man to gain the whole world, yet lose his soul"

We need a new Good Book to teach the children with. A religious scripture based on Peace rather than War. On Freedom instead of slavery. A morality based on planning for our future rather than on empirical domination and the owning of each other.

Because we are so impressionable. We imitate our elders and absorb their prejudices and assumptions like a sponge sopping up the very juices of life.

So if we spend 10, 20 or 30 years educating people to be machine parts, to think skeptically coldly cruelly calculatingly in order to plot a course of maximum consumption at whatever detrimental cost to our environment or fellow Earth beings then we reap the expected outcome, a world that has been murdered.

And that's pretty much where we are today, drifting around the crime scene waiting tense and apprehensively for the nest shock the next calamity the next blown up scam riot to blow like a tornado through the infantile childlike media consciousness we all reverie in.

Existential apathy.

Post modern dyslexic non involvement.

And here in the mist of This.
