Did it exist at all? Apparently nothing was left of it after the fire. No fragments or remnants or bits or pieces. Gone completely.What do you think our world would be like today had we always had access to the actual writing of Plato Socrates Aristotle? Our society is unconcerned with philosophy. You can't make money off it so it is of little consequence to most.How would the world be different/better than it is? less

The middle of life would be chersh. The beginning kinda tough and the ending would be bizarre. What infant can take care of him/herself? At the end we'd be entirely dependent on others. Sometimes we are.

Of course some see beauty in the caterpillar and resent butterflies. Culthead dumb don, a lifelong caterpillar, is such a one. He turns potential butterflies into lifelong catepillars. It is his gift.
Wouldn't that be a very interesting document? If there were no miracles then how did the saint become a saint and why? Thoughts upon pondering about life and such.

The viewer could look at it in any way he/she chose. I'm not a fan of ambiguity. I like KNOWING either or. You?

I think both cheapen those who engage in them. But I'm an old dame and old-fashioned. Aspiring to be a whore would not be on MY list of aspirations. Different strokes.

Either belief system does not confer superiority on anyone though some may think theirs definitely does. It is all conjecture.But certitude lives in the heart and minds of homo saps. Certitude about things they cannot possibly KNOW but even so they "know". Silly creatures.
