Alphabet vs the goddess
Watch this and you'll understand why humanity keeps falling for nonsense…
With language, our brains were nudged to tune into a common prediction instead of personal prediction. When one relies on others to know what is real or not, they aren't using their own senses to confirm it, whether by thought or experience. Language replaced the need to experience something to consider it real.
Here's a documentary of the Piraha Amazonian tribe that were being told about Jesus. Notice how they do not take the past as fact, just because it was in the Bible, etc.
(I forgot who stated this 😬. If you find it let me know, thanks!)
"I believe humanity's foray into fiction began with the breakdown of the bicameral mind, and the insertion of meaningless symbols in between the subject and the seer. In short, back when people used pictographic alphabets, we were limited to discussing things we could actually see in the real world. The invention of phonemic alphabets like this one, which are comprised not of representative pictures but of meaningless letters, provides the opportunity to invent an endless stream of non-sense, the greatest of these being spelled with just a single capital letter."
And this goes more into languages.
I'm going to watch this later today... Ever read a book called "The First Sex"? Came out in early 70's... About history waaaaay back, much further than we're led to believe. Goddess and matriarchy and so forth, which I'd read about before, but I've not heard or read before just how far back we're talking... I'm still reading it, just got it a few days ago. Pretty interesting! Anyway, I'll listen to this later on or tonight and then comment again... Thanks, Rob.
Relatively few women are left-handed. Thus, a majority are left-brained. Since they aren't into alphabet thinking, hormones must play a greater role than brain hemisphere dominance.
As a left-handed male, I'm less empathetic than most women. I rest my case.
