Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness

 

Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness

Or is there such a thing now?
I always remember these words from Keith Green:
Lord Set us Free from Chains we Cannot See.
Thing is ALL OF US have chains we cannot see and how can we break them if we don't see them if
We don't even know that we have them to begin with?

Like this elephant that was tied for a while and once you remove the tie he still stands there as if the tie was still on? 

Many of these chains I see are so-called cultural like we were molded unwillingly in the zeitgeist of our nation, our language, our CULTURE.

We are basically cultivated and as much as an apple cannot decide suddenly to be a pear we are what we were molded into from a very young age sometimes even almost at the DNA level.

I see it in Quebec people, in Brits, in French people and in all possible culture and tribe I guess.

They cannot escape the mold they were shaped in and more over they don't even know they were molded. 

Some are very very proud of this mold in fact, of this chain, and get very angry at people who don't follow it with epithet like unamerican or unaustralian and what not as if the RNG of where your ancestor's sperm fell was god given or  special.

Everyday I look out and I really question free will.
Free will of getting into a drunken brawl every night? or the free will of living a life of horrendous crimes after having been raised my horrendous parents worse than animals? 
In a proper justice system sometimes it is the parents who should get the chair really.
The freedom of native nation who once were kind of free of following their tribe's superstitions but now that those have been stolen away they're left with nothing?  The freedom to not overthink when you're half-intelligent? Speaking of I was a little surprised and intrigued to learn that Nepal was the country with the lowest IQ in the world and yet ALSO the happiest country in the world. I guess they too have their own superstitions and chains though. But I mean lower than 50? Wow! 
Most low IQ would resort to crime more than often.
Anyway it comes down again to something I have expressed often: the ability to see things OBJECTIVELY , to understand more or less what is going on and what causes what. To be this Laplace Demon and KNOW! To be the all knowing all understanding being. Hard to imagine though all an all-knowing all seeing all undertanding being could be ALL GOOD whatever that word means.  

We're little more than monkeys and most of the time much more cruel and malicious than they could ever be. I mean monkeys can only dismember one of theirs one at a time. It is mind blowing though how twisted a human mind is and can be. 

What we call justification and rationalisation has no end and I don't need to watch Oppeinheimer to know.

All throughout history there has been a numberless amount of horrors committed over and over again and again and we haven't learned fuck all from it all, absolutely nothing, it is repeated every goddamn day and we shake our head and recite Lest We Forget MINDLESSLY. 

I don't see any change in the near or even distant future in the year 2525 or 3535 IF ever the self destructive human race makes it there I think good old Leonard might have been on to something here I have seen the FUTURE and it is MURDER
