Reasons
It the face of eternity
It is only human to seek reasons.
When there are none to be found
We can always invent them.
Our brain has evolved
To interpret patterns,
Find answers,
Seek solutions.
When faced with infinity
We are unable to see it
As anything other
Than finity.
We invent beginnings
Ends and continuations
Where none
Exist.
Our limitations
Dictate our dogma
And create a range
Of irrational beliefs.
Opher – 14.10.2019
It seems to me that we are entering a new age of irrationality. Superstition and irrational thought is on the rise hand in hand with extremism, isolation and retraction.
Instead of reaching out confidently to investigate the unknown we are retracting back into ourselves and looking to unsubstantiated beliefs to give us solace.
The Dark Ages are descending.
