i’m feeling somewhat sympathetic for those who feel the pull of the metaphysical need. how else is one to cope with weakness in the face of monstrosity and no power to overcome the conditions this horrific world is predicated upon? for most it is too much to bear.
it’s psychologically more agreeable to indulge in a palliative compensatory fantasy and retain some semblance of order and justification rather than constantly run against frustration and failure.
