Musings about Humans

[talktooloose]

Two thoughts which came to me over breakfast which I will bookmark for future consideration. Feel free to chime in on either:

1. It seems to me that the myth of God is best understood as an allegory for the way human consciousness illuminates nature and makes it self-aware at last.
   
2. The music business is among the most corrupt and inhuman precisely because music is the indescribable quintessance of human expression.

If you think of nature as a totality and anthropomorphise it, the addition of humanity gives nature self-awareness and abstract appreciation. We alone find beauty in the singing of the sparrow and weep at sunsets. We alone map the connections.

I should clarify that when I say "the myth of god", I mean my myth of god with only passing regard for either edition of the bible.
