becoming bored of the: what came first, the chicken or the egg? i had to ask a similar question: what came first, the letter δ, or the digit 6?
the only reason why philosophy books
take so much time to read,
is because,
of all literary traditions,
philosophy books extoll
a need to allow re-reading,
and no, not a re-reading of the omni-
reading: the sigma / the entire
work -
but passages of a work -
philosophy books take such a long time
to read, because one is forced to
reread certain passages several times,
if not the nadir-minimum of at least
twice....
notably? perhaps one of many examples
(and i was serious that
heidegger's being & time
and kant's critique of pure reason
are, reasonably, worth 2 years of your
life to read through, and several
other non-philosophical books
in between...
yes, poetry is a grand aid when
reading philosophy -
notably due to his "agoraphilia",
and its love for sparing the eyes
from straining themselves in
the fudge of tight-knit paragraphs):
that said: the elders should read
either newspapers or poetry,
while the young, with their hawk-eyes
the deluge of claustrophilic
sentencing...
funny... we hear more of phobias
than of philias...
last time i checked, our society
entombed only one philia,
among many phobias...
you know the philia, it begins with
the letter p-;
odd, isn't it?
to fathom a rainbow range
of possible phobias,
and disrespect a possiblity for
what's devolved in etymological terms
from greek, i.e.?
how philias are understood in english:
quirks... eccentricities.
england and its people is a nation
of eccentricities, any russian can tell you
that... you don't even have to cite
the neo-tsar of the current year;
a less pleasant ascriptive-noun /
denoting? a, bunch of ******* weirdos!
(yes, the comma implies a quick cascade
of utterance - like ******* a
shoelace of spaghetti).
the example though,
rereading aphorism no. 93 (ponderings V) -
what does reconstitute man
as *animal rationale rather than
firmly establishing him as **** sapiens?
well... for a **** sapiens
there must be a deus insapiens -
for a wise man, a mad god;
but beyond the notion of god...
would it not be easier, as aphorism 93
suggests invoke a trinity of concepts?
no "wise" man discredits god,
whether in idea, or whether in existence,
or when in idea in non-existence -
because isn't that what atheists provoke?
namely that god "is": in idea in non-existence,
existence per se, cannot be an idea,
since in invokes the 5 senses
rather than the 1 non-sense (thought),
simply, i can't grasp existence as an idea,
but i can grasp the existence of x
as an idea, since the mechanics of "an" idea
is to treat it as non-existent, and therefore
requiring me to think about it:
and since nature doesn't allow vacuums -
what could possibly fill the nature of
man, if not the ontological construct of
the existing-"non"-existent god?
what? some hot chocolate and a cookie jar?!
that's beside the point...
reducing man from the status
of **** sapiens into a state of
animal rationale opens our demand
for the original status "quo",
that man work from the foundation of
qua categorised animal rationale
and moving to the status of **** sapiens,
which, by so doing, avoids
the burden of presupposing oneself
as **** sapiens, and "re-inventing"
the wheel, and crafting the posit for
a deus insapiens.
the aphorism does suggest that we
are breeding an animal,
an animal of genes,
rather than a human of memes,
for "man" to attain the status
of **** sapiens from the origin
of animal rationale - is to also claim that
the current claim of "man" as
**** sapiens reduces a "god" to
be categorised as deus insapiens
(as stressed by the emotionally infantile
pressure: ******* built a pyramids!
oh... so looking at a mountain from
a distance wasn't good enough?) -
but categorising "man" as striving for
the status of **** sapiens from the origins
of the already well versed
atheistic demand
for the animal in man, rather than
the man in the animal...
who could not be persuaded
to allow the striving of a "god"
from the confines
of animal rationale ut deus insapiens
into the existential-"zoo"
of **** sapiens ut
deus sapiens?
can that question even range into
asking whether **** est deus
ut deus est man - and that this whole existence
has an omni-spaien dimension
with a ?, given that the big bang was
not ? remark, but an ! -
a question is hushed
into philosophy (murmur), while awe
and fancy and daring shouts! explodes!
