The Sublime & Beautiful vs. Reality

This blog is a record of one man's struggle to search for scientific, philosophical, and religious truth in the face of the limitations imposed on him by economics, psychology, and social conditioning; it is the philosophical outworking of everyday life in contrast to ideals and how it could have been.


-
The chief aim of all investigations of the external world should be to discover the rational order and harmony which has been imposed on it by God
and which He revealed to us in the language of mathematics.
--Johannes Kepler

Social Philosophy: Individual vs. The State: A few more thoughts

Hat tip to Mark Horne for these quotes; they exactly expresses the truth and my personal feelings:

"Everything the State says is a lie, & everything it has is stolen." - Friedrich Nietzsche

“The urge to save humanity is almost always a false face for the urge to rule it.” — H.L. Mencken

"The State is the great fiction through which everybody endeavors to live at the expense of everybody else." Frederic Bastiat
