-------------------------------------------- Everyday religion dogmas 2018.01.18 20:47:47 UTC -------------------------------------------- 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 what 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 by 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 empty arguments.
