MANKIND'S LEGACY




Mankind's inescapable legacy is that of a liar.
We are ultimate and supreme liars.
We do nothing better than lie.

We can do nothing but lie.


For we cannot experience the Truth

We cannot conceive the Truth

We cannot speak the Truth

We cannot hear the Truth



Man gets worked.
Woman gets raped.

Yes, we can!

But the bullet's pretty neat.

Yes, we can! ...speak the truth?

So all you wrote is a lie?

Yes...exactly.

Please draw your own conclusions.


The actual general concept of this thread rather precludes me from inferring for you.



Thank you for adding to this thread and I hope you enjoy this topic!

Okay, I admit that's cool. By which, since we lie, I must mean hot.... but not that kind of hot, at least I don't think so; maybe subconsciously.... or maybe I frigid.... tepid... warm?

What a mean, nasty little piece of work you hide so well.

Do not worry upon my part as your posts only increase my feelings of adequacy with comparison to those who think contradictions hold any 'deep philosophical perspective' other than demonstrating how far the 'perspective' is from being philosophical and is in reality existential confusion and a psychological cry for help and a sign of despair. That or it's just the babble of the prospecting gnu.

I am sorry. I apologise.


I did not mean to increase your feelings of adequacy.


When I originally posted this topic I had no idea who would respond.


I am happy that you and everyone else reponds to this original posting.



I hope you can gleem some spiritual or philosophical insights distilled from my writings.








I mean nothing more by it..........................

Gleem?

Using it as a metaphor for both society and physical space, this also illustrates well the idea of perspective. To an outside observer there is a zeitgeist, but to someone embedded, it depends where they are. Someone in the center can easily recognize a larger pattern but someone in another location may experience randomness.
