A Place for God1989platinum-palladium print, 8×10 in.
The greater the intelligence,
the smarter the God.
Intelligence is the spawn of Mind,
and Mind itself a construct.
There is another nothing. Simple.
It is the 4th of July today.
Time to celebrate, right?
Perhaps we would be better off by having
a day of silence,
no TV, no travel,
water and bread,
alone.
“It is time, it is long past time, to put patriotism back on the shelf—out of the reach of children and madmen.” Matthew Rothschild, July 2, 2008.
There is another nothing.
And everything.
How many nations have been founded on, by, for God?
And how many claim the right to kill, swallow, pulverize, in the name of divine purpose?
Patriotism, nationhood, citizenship, religion, belief.
The mind needs these structures
the way that a screw driver needs a screw.
No Mind, no Gain.
