The Spiritual Mutiny of Intellectual Subsistence

History has been the best story-teller, teacher and guide that humans have encountered. Recording the thoughts, laws and events of the past has been one of the best decisions humans have ever taken.

This leads us down an adventurous path, where we follow the Human across time, finding various reasons to live, while being burdened with knowledge and an excellent prefrontal cortex . We stumble upon mythologies, religions and belief systems spread across lands, the cause of miracles and wars, life and death.

These belief systems are drivers of the human will, an invisible hand forcing the human brain to act a certain way, while directing entire societies, regimes and cultures, and have been doing so since the dawn of time.

Philosophy would be an introduction to the study of belief systems. Though I personally have not delved deep, my personal belief systems have evolved throughout my childhood, and I am currently exploring the vast forest that we call the Internet. Deep within the net, we find some interesting thoughts, while other places, such as youtube, offer some different ones.

My intellectual journey will continue till I die, but I hope to enjoy exploring the depths of thought, language and reality as I go on. That will be by mutiny to the intellectual subsistence of the modern times.
