Response to Camus by Deborah S Regan WE PERCEIVE THROUGH THE MIND, AN IMPERCECT INSTRUMENT. WE CANNOT KNOW WHAT IS IMPORTANT, EXCEPT THROUGH HINDSIGHT. OUR REASON CANNOT MAKE SENSE OF OUR EXPERIENCE. WHEN IT APPEARS TO DO SO, IT SURELY IS ONLY AN IMAGE OF THE WORLD. SINCE WE CANNOT PERCEIVE THE WHOLE OF REALITY, THE SLICE OF THE PICTURE WE UNDERSTAND SURELY IS FALSE. THE MIND IS A DECEIT, BUT IT IS THE "ONLY GAME IN TOWN." AND WE MUST PLAY THEN WHAT IS MORALITY? TO BE A "NICE" PERSON? ARE YOU? FOR SURELY YOU HAVE CAUSED SUFFERING . MORALITY IS ONLY TO LIMIT SUFFERING OF OTHERS. OTHERS ARE NEITHER GOOD NOR BAD, INNOCENT NOR GUILTY. THEY ARE, AND WE RESPOND TO THEIR HUMANITY WITH HUMANITY. 02/01/2002 Posted on 02/01/2002 Copyright © 2024 Deborah S Regan Return to the Previous Page   pathetic.org Version 7.3.2 May 2004 Terms and Conditions of Use 0 member(s) and 2 visitor(s) online All works Copyright © 2024 their respective authors.
