We ourselves are increasingly being absorbed into our consciousness, or black hole, through our use of it, and at the same time, we are using our consciousness to absorb all other life-forms into its emptiness.
Freedom is the doctrine of the state.
The sword of freedom, being cast in the image of its darkest shadow, has led to such unimaginable human suffering, that bondage pales in comparison. The image comes to mind, of a small group of gorilla's, fighting and squabbling over a huge pile of banana's. Perhaps pick up a single banana and walk away with it, or maybe just eat some leaves. The basis for order in society through law, including morality and ethics, is subjective, thereby partial. Knowledge is a product of humanity because we invent it.
