This is the joke of existence without knowable intrinsic purpose.
Human inability to know for certain renders all collective thinking worthless. This position is absurdist. Describe the desire for clarity as a form of self-imprisonment, The best question is “What is?” because the best answer can only be ambiguous. Because this is all like the myth of Sisyphus repeated so on and so on, Push a rock up a hilltop then it rolls back down so you can again begin rolling it along. The myth at its core concerns the absurdity of a meaningless pursuit, Does even meaningless have meaning if you believe there’s meaning in what you do? Since the earliest oral traditions we’ve preoccupied our time with finding truth, The recurring theme seems to be - be nice to people like they’d be nice to you. Whether this is phrased as a moral imperative or as a spiritual law, It recurs so often no one can dismiss it as primitive thought. Altruism and peace. It appears nice but perhaps it’s naïve. Indifference and war. Or is this clutching at straws? Or is it clutching at an imperfect representation of the original straws metaphysical form? Definitive. Declarative. Authoritative texts contradicted by contradictory authoritative texts, The next statement is true and the previous statement was false, do you understand philosophy yet? Good, I don’t either. If they tell you they do then they’re a charlatan or a liar, Reciting Higher Vedas of a timeless nature, madmen, marketers and messiahs. Then again who can be certain that any of this is true? Only be certain that it may have some truth-like properties, I could become a nihilist, but I don’t know enough stuff to follow it properly, Still, wouldn’t it be freeing to just reject all of these –isms, -ilities, and –ologies, And just be able to accept realities absurdity. Or it’s something like that, possibly. |
