well, whats the point?<br><br>Is a Picasso more of a work of art than an exact fake of a picasso? Do we enjoy the fake less because we know its not been painted by pablo, although the quality of the painting is the same? I think Id enjoy the fake picasso just as much.<br><br>Hm, on the other hand, would we enjoy our girlfreind less if she were unfaithful & lying to us about it? <br><br>Sure its a lie. But maybe reality is made up of lies as well. Everything we experience is an illusion - and it is - (we couldnt possibly handle pure reality, thats why our brains are filters) Perhaps the quest for truth itself is an illusion.<br><br>Maybe ol Hassan al-Sabbah had it right<br><br>"nothing is true, everything is permitted" <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p216.ezboard.com/brigorousintuition.showUserPublicProfile?gid=4911>4911</A> at: 6/21/06 4:14 am<br></i>
