The Human Race

[Samurai Waki]

Finding a balance between Sex, Alcohol, and Partying and Pursuing the Greater Endeavors of the Mind is about right. You can get burnt out very quickly being on either end of the spectrum, some will collapse from over thinking something, and someone else will collapse because they've waken up and realized the universe is much larger than what they can see and hear.

[Sigurd]

It's cannonical:

And behold joy and gladness, slaying oxen, and killing sheep, eating flesh, and drinking wine: let us eat and drink; for to morrow we shall die. (Isaiah 22:13)

I see that Innocentius's clear and well-developed mind has already rendered some posts fallen... again

To Andres:
I know what you meant but it was necessary to make certain you could explain it well since when one makes an argument the receiver must be certain that the arguer does not merely quickly throw in something. Of course you understand.

However, your description and the word self-relativism do not seem to mix. Well they could, but let me say that among the explanations I foresaw I expected a total different response. It leads me to ask you just in case: are you certain your description is what you meant? :P

In any case (though perfection is NOT what I aim at or necessarily argue), even if we are all imperfect, is it not a good path to attempt to become perfect in our greatest possible understanding thereof (or at least near it as much as possible)?



When I regard the human race I see little change for the better. We are as ever an immature primitive species bent on destruction, conflict, self-gain, hedonism, selfishness, and so forth. To ascend, to overcome, these negativities something is necessary...

I meant "zelfrelativering" , don't know if "self-relativism" is the correct translation.
