“The questions why, and why not, are both the burden and significance of human thought, the banana peel strategically placed in front of the rabbit hole. But why does destruction have such a seductive pull? I think that is the soul’s instinctive knowledge that the biggest advances, epiphanies and paradigm shifts are preceded by a cleansing period of destruction as the old building is demolished to build the new one, the field of weeds torched to sow new seeds. That’s why destruction is so thrilling, because of the subconscious expectation of the mysterious, "what’s next?" I think we should do that, “culturally speaking.” Tear into the flesh of the old-world ideas of religion, politics and philosophy with the sharpened teeth of destruction, drinking in their dying plasma until it bubbles up in our brains and bleeds out our fingertips as blasphemies, at first, before becoming the profound truths of the next step of human evolution. Let us reject the conditioned belief that memorizing the words and ideas of predecessors is attainment of enlightenment, let us sin, let us commit the true original sin, the sin of independent thought which frightens the politicians, the kings, the business tycoons, the priests and preachers as well as the paper gods they created to keep us in line.”
