THE PERIPATETIC PHILOSOPHER PRESENTS:



THE KINDLE LIBRARY -- $0.99




DESCRIPTION

We now attempt to understand this LONG DAY’S JOURNEY INTO THE WESTERN NIGHT.

The Western mind has been leery of demigods throughout its history, but vulnerable to such perceptions for its paranoia. The Western collective conscious is more single minded than pluralistic, more arrogant than humble and displays an implicit belief that the Anglo-Saxon Caucasian is superior to other races.

Faulty as this belief, it has established a cultural truth that the West was destined to first conquer nature, and then impose its collective will on the rest of the world. This “cut & control” extravagance has led to the question: Can the planet earth survive this self-indulgent man?

Now, paradoxically, the rest of the world, in an effort to catch up, as it were, is committing the same errors as the West, imitating Western extravagance to realize its own dominance, putting the earth and 21st century world in future jeopardy.

Not to worry, as with Western boxamania, problems are treated as effects irrespective of causes. The drumbeat thunders on in celebration of the progress being made as a myriad of problems are being solved, failing to realize that the problems being solved are most likely the problems being created. In boxamania, existence is mainly in the cocoon of Nowhere Land, which is the wasteland of excess.

It is the nature of Western culture, the character of its society, the slant of its religion, the take on what it is to be human, free and civilized, that by implication if not by intention is that to be white is to be Western or European. Is it any wonder that the world resents this arrogance?
