-Human nature categorizes men into two categories, the baboon-bourgeosie-bigger and the paleface-proletariat-smaller.
- I have to flip with this part of you evolutionary sum. woody allen, prince and al pacino would fit into PPS and anyone else who's small for that fact - they did well for themselves (either though none is a paleface).
There is free will, but only in our fantasies, which are given a run in the arts, music and film industry.
But yeah, you've done you're homework... Were to blame for our own evolutionary dogmatism. Everything is pre-doctrine for the 9 months were in the womb, and the 18 or so years of growth and development that follow.

Sarcasm is way lost.
I have never met a single happy person in my entire life. I mean consistently happy, content with their life, confident with who they are. The world doesn't care about you.
I totally reject (pre-)determinism, BTW. We are fundamentally responsible for our decisions, lives and happiness. Happiness! The world will NEVER lift the smallest finger to make you happy. Happiness comes from within and your OWN actions.
Angst is a very special, favourite form of vanity.
Massive surfeit of ego... 'the world', 'society'... these things are not entities bent on your destruction.
Argh, I'm wasting my breath. |
