In his novel Cat's Cradle, Kurt Vonnegut (1963) proposed that a human being is really no more than a pile of lucky mud. Aftrer all, the human body is chemically not much different from the dirt it walks on, plus a lot of water (the body is about 70 percent water). The only difference, says Vonnegut, is that this mass of mud is up and walking around. More important, it has awareness, so it can look around and experience the world. The other mud, the stuff underfoot, does not get to do that. It just lies there, ignorant of all the interesting things happening above.


And that is Vonnegut's good news. The bad news is that this luck cannot last. Sooner or later (at death), thechemicals that make up the body begin to break down and turn back into earth. The bible says people come from the eart and return to it; that is Vonnegut's point as well." - Funder, Personality Puzzle page 412

How Ironic that you wine about not having control yet you spout big liberal gov where control is being stripped away. Just say it you want others to give you shit, as you cant make it on your own.
