-If a belief that is taught causes one to fear what is unknown and dwell in fear before wanting to understand it, that personal belief should be discouraged-
this sort of sums up everything i don't like about the world in the simplest terms possible.
as opposed to the concept as donnie darko was, i really do think that fear and love are the ultimate polar extremes. fear is a blinding force, and love induces curiosity as well as hospitality in finding answers.
it sounds really loopy but it's true that love is the most practical tool of humanitarian progress.

it's funny when you analyze a problem to death and then the answer in the end is something so simple that everyone already knows it. that is what happened here.
why is it a hinderance to be loved? i guess maybe because you have to do something non-selfish to be loved and in those terms it seems their motivations are purely evolutionary. or is it some other reason that is painstakingly obvious and i don't see it?
