The monolith analogy struck a particular chord with me. Perhaps you could expand in future messages as to what is it – in our human nature – that has us gravitate to “the one simple solution”. This tendency is undoubtedly one of mankinds most profound failings, one that leaves us vulnerable to sidestepping critcal thinking and accepting the “realities” proffered by others.
Not only are we initially seduced by the monolith, we commit to it, for a lifetime, in unquestioning faith in its precepts.
Thanks for all your great ideas
Lawson
