Akule has undressed himself now. You are shocked- you did not expect his aging to be so ungraceful. Even without telomere lengthening, he still looks absolutely horrible. The way the skin sags, the muscles, clearly in use constantly and a healthy diet yet results in this. You see how his face and hands and tail are all perfect- clearly the result of surgeries and cosmetics to appear youthful and strong even yet, but he can barely stand.
<span class="mu-r">”-Because to believe in the <span class="mu-i"><span class="mu-s">soul</span></span>, is to believe that everything will get better. That our actions in this world, and the environment in which we live, is secondary or even <span class="mu-i">transitory</span>. That the pointless and endless waste, the pointless and endless suffering, the purposelessness of life, the unsurety of the future- is all really for some higher purpose. To some higher power, the universe or karma or the Gods or “myself looking inward to everything” as any narcissistic reincarnationist will believe in all its blind arrogance.
We must not fall for the soul for the siren-song of the <span class="mu-i">soul</span>. Everything is physical. Your brain is physical. Your mind is physical, your memories and emotions and connections- they all exist only as things that can be measured and manipulated and a part of the intrinsic system. This is it. This is what, and who, I am. What you see before you, in all its naked ugliness. Do I disgust you? That is good. This is my soul, bared before you. Yet despite all my will, despite my greatness and all my struggle, this is where I will end up. Do you understand yet?
I rebuke the soul. I despise it. The very concept disgusts me. Because if there really was- if there really was a <span class="mu-i">soul</span>, a golden glorious soul...”</span>
Akule is tearing up now. It is clear, the video is about to end.
<span class="mu-r">”...Then that golden, timeless, endless perfect thing, free from suffering, free from time, free from entropy, free from the bonds of evolutionary psychology, free from this pointless and wretched and limited existence. Then that perfect and glorious <span class="mu-i">thing</span>, is doomed. Doomed to be trapped in <span class="mu-i">this</span>. And that? <span class="mu-i">That</span> is too painful to believe.”</span>
