Quote
Being the most insecure species on earth, humans have a tendency to seek for instruction manuals for even the fundamental experiences and realizations of life. And that's why so many con-artists, that is, the mystical fraudsters are able to keep cashing on their insecurity, by selling them diagrams and techniques to liberation. The number of gurus, yogis, swamis and psychics in a country increases exponentially with the fall of reason, and the fall of reason leads to the fall of civilization.

From the wheel to the steel - from papyrus to kindle - from churchbell to doorbell - from holy books to comic books - from monotheism to secularism - from fundamentalism to humanism - from steam engine to jet engine - from cave painting to apple pencil - from antibiotics to antipsychotics - from embroidery to surgery - from moving pics to netflix - every single feat that we can think of, good or bad, is born of the neurons. In short, neurons can make the world or break the world.

We didn't trudge through 3.5 billion years of evolution, so that we could carry on with the same freaking acts of recklessness and selfishness as we used to in the jungle.
