“Muahahahaha!”…

Sorry, a deep resonant haunting laugh is how I cope when faced with a difficult moral conundrum.

(Paraphrased from “Better Off Ted”.)

There are ghouls and trogolodytes among us and they arent going anywhere. We have to find a way to maximize humanities better nature and minimize the bad stuff. We just have no idea how to do that.

For starters, Religion in general has clearly failed us and been more of a problem than any sort of help. How much better of a world would it be without any concept of holy lands or tribal traditions that are worth dying over?

That article was even weirder and creepier than I expected. By a lot.

Also some interesting bits from a different Austrian tradition:

The Krampuses are now encouraged to only symbolically brush festival-goers, and not actually whip them.
