The pre-eminence of youth and physical beauty.
The drive for material acquisition.
The pursuit of knowledge for its own sake, which encourages the often
fraudulent practice of presenting speculation as fact.
I wonder whether the new gods have really made the
generality of life better – on balance, that is. It’s obvious that they’re
taking the human animal ever further from the undercurrent of its existence. But
I also wonder whether it matters, if life is just a holodeck as I suspect it
probably is.
