Everyday religion dogmas | |

During lunch today I caught myself meditating while the people | |
around me kept up the conversation. Studying the emotions caused | |
by the conversation and really listening to it. I was amazed at wh | |
I found out. I found myself just as "groundless" as when talking | |
about religious dogmas with my family. | |
I'm not a traditional religious person, but I had plenty of | |
conversations about religion and a big pet peeve of mine: dogmas. | |
One of my big problem with dogmas is the emptiness of their | |
authoritative nature - they are true by authoritarian order, not b | |
logic. | |
Today I felt the same about the conversation, a lot of words, but | |
emptiness. A lot of trust, assumptions and premisses, all empty. | |
One example, cryptocoins. The decentralized nature of cryptocoins | |
are amazing. The potential of this technology is amazing. But most | |
people are not concerned about this. Their empty concern is how to | |
make profit. | |
Maybe I'm overthinking things, but I can't deny the deja-vu of emp | |
arguments. |
