{∅, {∅}, {∅, {∅}}} : Rage Against the Meat Grinder

Holden,

Thank you for the articles and the video on the execution of Queen Mary of the Scots and the quote from Candide.

It reminded me a movie I saw many years ago about  Sophie Scholl and his brother, Hans and others who were decapitated with guillotine by judicial executioner Johann Reichhart in Stadelheim, Munich for acts of treason in 1943 in Nazi Germany. They were members of the White Rose group and their crime was distributing flyers against the Nazi regime. That night, according to Spanish author, José Antonio Marina, there was a huge rally supporting the executions and praising the janitor who denounced the Scholls.

Years ago I heard that there were women who gave birth to children for sterile couples. Well, in India it is a millionaire industry. Business is business.

Jorge Britez, the Paraguayan deputy in the Congress is well known for his position against the pandemic. Last year he proposed to legalize theft as a joke because the government was putting to many restrictions on the businesses. But I did not know he was famous internationally. Some reporters in the Paraguayan news media want him out of the Congress.

Yes, we are all like Jonathan Harker, inmates of this asylum called Earth.
In the late 1990s I used to listen to David Warner, a U.S. singer, aka Marilyn Manson. He is now facing serious legal issues. One of his known songs was The Beautiful People. I believe his song was referring to those who are in high society.

You are not among the “beautiful people.”

You are an evangelist but an evangelist with a gloomy, bleak, and dark gospel. You preach a gospel for the doomed and damned.

We all wish there were no physical anguish and mental anguish as you say but we were brought into this living ocean of tears where sorrows, pain, anxiety and anguish abound. We, human beings, are diabolical clowns. Our civilized veneer is very thin indeed. Millions speak of love but love has no power over our dark and miserable hearts. We are split creatures.

To be a human beings means being trapped in this prison planet.

Once browsing the Internet I picked up this quote by Ovid, a Roman poet:

I am dragged along by a strange new force. Desire and reason are pulling in different directions. I see the right way and I approve it, but follow the wrong.

We carry in ourselves the burden of life and death.

I hope to see the doctor and get the medications. But there are public hospitals are requesting the vaccination card for surgeries or operations.

Keep studying mathematics and stay well.
