"but also other human beings have a natural genetically imprinted sense of justice" most peoples sense of justice is their greater capability to abstractly conceive things, which results in them using themselves as a reference
these are the sort of people with whom you can have "good things"
Absolutely. Some clinical research also supports the notion that limited choices and limited resources also result in greater creativity and problem solving ability.
This does not apply to most
Presentation of choice and presentation of information is a major issue in policy discussions too.
Behind every choice in modern public dealings, lies some sort of tyrany
The Good effect of limited choices can really be seen within art, if you restrict the tools and the styles that one can use one has it offers a kind of tool to compare and assess artpieces based on the characters one has defined within such a framework
In modernity, choice itself is tyranny, becase bad choices prevail
Limitation of choice is freedom
and self-limitation the fullest freedom
Self-limitation is utilitarianism
Freedom is non-utilitarian, meaning, unconditional
It's free from every purpose and direction
This is of course, from purely philosophical point of view
From point of view of practicality, self-limitation can yield superior results where abundance of choices creates a sense of a lack of direction
This reminded me of James J. Frazer's book, the golden bough
One of the most famous sources for "evolutionary" study of religion
Which nevertheless, willingly or not, was quite of a source for getting genuinely interested in spiritual matters
In exposing obviously, the central part that mortality plays in every kind of cult (though not making differentiations other than in the method of association) it's stunning how it didnt provide foundation to keep contemplating on the issue, but merely to remain confident in "rationality" which simply acknowledges death, but does not ponder
What in science stands for "overcoming your insticts" in spiritual exploration can stand for the same kind of progress, but which does not lead towards conclusion that science suffices
btw i read only short version of the book, the thing is gargantuan in volume
I read it years ago. Agree that it served as diving board for some Jungian mythopoetic / spiritual pondering
I was smoking a lot of weed at the time
I am a genius
