READING, WRITING

Read for 60 seconds in SAPIENS by Yuval Noah Harari.  He says there are 3 factors that prevent humankind from knowing that their "imagined order" exists only in their imagination:

a)  The "imagined order" is embedded in the material world

Harari states categorically that the 'imagined order' exists only in our minds (he does not prove this), and that it can be woven into the material reality around us.  He then states that most Westerners believe in individualism (that we've just as much right as anyone else, that our own opinions of ourselves are what matters, etc.)

I'm wondering where he's going with this; will he prove somehow that individualism is merely imagined?  How could he possibly prove it?  Right now, I will only accept the idea as his opinion; I will not adopt it until I am convinced.

********

Will TODAY be the D-DAY I've been waiting for so long?  We'll see.  Probably not, but we'll see.

b)  The "imagined order" shapes our desires

c)  The "imagined order" is inter-subjective
