Rumination is an unfortunate side effect of intelligence.
The more possibilities you can imagine the more stressful it is to make decisions, and the less confidence you will have that your past decisions were the right ones.
For the record I don't believe in an organized global conspiracy. I do believe that many individual actors that are making decisions based on the same parameters can build a large structure that, when viewed from a distance or over a long period of time, looks like it has a complex and deliberate design and came from a conscious architect.
OK . . . My thinking didn't go that deep . . . I had Woody Allen in mind when I wrote it, but what you say makes sense.
I can't tell you how tired I am of hearing about the "international Jewish banker/Rothschild conspiracy to rule the world," so your last paragraph pretty much expresses what I imagine the reality of the "Jewish Question" to be.
That's a really obtuse sentence, but I hope you get my point.
A lot of dry "history of science" and biographical stuff but the "meat" of the theories is mindblowing. The idea that everything is made up of regular but non-repeating patterns that can't be predicted only iterated through is a concept that totally changed how I looked at the world.
Self-loathing is a jewish specialty, like overbearing mothers and neurosis.
