BIOL10004 Lecture 14: Psych Part 2
Document Summary
We live in a shared story, the story is a way of looking at the world and it"s a way of acting in the world. Every time you learn something, you learn because something you did didn"t work, and that exposes you to the part of the world that you don"t understand. Every time you"re exposed to a part of the world you don"t understand, you have the possibility of rebuilding the structures that you use to interpret the world. And people do ask that question they ask it in ways that result in their own destruction and worse in the destruction of others. People who are particularly cruel- more than willing to dispense of as many human beings as they set their sights on because they"re so disgusted by the nature of human limitation that they"d rather eradicate it. What you understand most about yourself are the arbitrary presuppositions you use to hem yourself in.
