Funny. Everything is always very funny.
I have been reading up on a lil’ history here and there and I noticed that those deeeeep words usually mean that the individual or the society who uses such terms are either really deep and wise, or really, really not-right-in-the-head scary.
The base... Students. The seekers of knowledge.
I don’t know why but those words sends a chill down my spine each time I run my eyes over them. I mean, who knew these seemingly intellectual, hold up, I beg my pardon, seemingly? On the contrary, they do show a high level of intelligence; just that they use their intelligence for divergent pursuits.
Fundamentalists.
Everything needs a base, right? Everything needs a foundation. I too like grounds. I like justifications, I like rationales and I like motives. I like them solid. I also like the underpinning that reinforces the base by providing a substitution of stronger for weaker materials; otherwise, I would be living in rubble. But. The strict adherence of ancient or fundamental doctrines of any religion or ideology and laying down dogmas to be incontrovertibly true, that I don’t have much appetite for; partly due to the fact that I just had my lunch.
Well, I was going to start talking about extremists, zealots and bigots but I think I am in no position (and with no knowledge) at all to be throwing my criticisms at them, however weightless it may be. I understand that thoughts are momentary because they occur due to condition and maybe one day I’ll become a terrorist too. I also understand that the consequences of my actions are inevitable and I don’t want to be put behind bars just because I was playing a fool with my words, even though I always thought being jailed would be an enriching life experience for me.
Hmmm... Now where did I put that knife of mine?
PS. On what I talk best, or rather most, about, I watched Babylon AD today and why, why, why! does Michelle Yeoh like dying so much? I watched three of her shows back to back and she died in all three of them! T.T
