ambiguity and absolute faith - should they live together
FD
Having people around that have different faiths and beliefs is pretty much the same, some of us tend to live in true ambiguity, but at the end of the day, it can be exhausting, they pull me back often - that’s not always a good thing, in fact better be cautious about being pulled back often!
Nature feels like a machine when we watch it with cool detachment.
But underneath that pattern is a primordial chaos, always capable of surprise, mutation, collapse.
He sees the world as flux, and our concepts — truth, morality, science, nature — as scaffolding we throw over the storm, trying to live inside it.
“What is truth? A mobile army of metaphors.”
— Nietzsche, On Truth and Lies in a Nonmoral Sense
We can’t fully “know” it, because knowing is already an act of taming, shaping, categorising.
Despite all our consciousness, reasoning, and art, we are still acting out a kind of pattern — something like a hive, but also something like a question. We get the drive and desire to build and build, not always knowing why, but driven nonetheless. Necessity is’nt the reason we build things, we can survive living like farmers do without technology. We’ll probably live shorter lives but the drive to create more, can easily be seen as arising form ‘need’ perhase ‘a need to overcome other species’, but i doubt that’s the case. We build to ‘translate’ and to trancend to this ‘translaion’ to see it - and that’s the drive
