It's a Republican thing
[short form]
When/If you define The Question as:
A) There's this anthropomorphic Patriarch, see .. who's benevolent and sadistic, in turn; likes goat cheese and being adored etc.
OR
B) There's Nothingness ie. Stuff Just Happened
then, as with the recent pathetic case of Muricans allowing the Repos to define/claim [Religio + all the trappings] and win elections and stuff:
Sane people have to cry BS! to your inane protrayal of (any question relating to what might be Real.) ie
You postulate inchoate binary slogans? and - I'll say:
it's Dumb Stuff.
Want one definition of 'The Real'? Try one that's popular in some circles -
"That which is permanent and unchanging"
Ever 'seen' (tasted, felt, heard) anything remotely like that?
As to dudgeon about the article -
I see an earnest attempt to try to collect some phenomena that may.. be related to The Mystery (of why there is anything at all.) The screed Cannot / Could not ever "describe the Real" - for libraries-full of reasons. As to the unfortunate insertions of silly neologisms: it's what people do, when they think they're on to something.
Remember Kuhn and 'paradigm shift'? That was not a silly observation, not-at-all, but silly people began bandying that phrase about until it died as horrible a death as was the torture-murder of innovation by you-know-who.
Not my problem. Throw out baby w/bathwater: ignore all his words. That still won't mean that you know Shit about Reality.
(Does anybody, currently on the planet, know anything about Reality?
Wouldn't. you. like. to. know !?)
