One prime issue at stake here is - by priority - the problem of
Authority:
:
"No one is an authority but you yourself. " ( The famous and courageous British philosopher John Locke - and Immanuel Kant
too - had a similar message in their days ... :/ )......
Having knowledge about a technicality
does not make a person an intellectual authority ! It makes him what he is: a knower of a technicality.( viz. p = p ) How much suffering and injustice we all could avoid , if we all believed in and acted
according to this simple truth : There are absolutely
no authorities, have never existed any, ... and never will !!
The second is even an empirical fact. Think of any historical person ( a former "authority" ) and look up !
What happened with him ? What did he cause ? Would you have trusted him or her today? Never ! Ever !...simple induction, inference and extrapolation.
The idea of the "authority" is always a means for people to oppress others. Do not get fooled ! Authorities have never and will never be of any use
to mankind ! And they are certainly dangerous, - especially for YOU ! ( And the worst are the intellectual political and religious authorities.
They have knowledge about absolutely .....zero." Why so ? Because they are talking about "what everybody knows and what noone will ever know" ( Voltaire ) , with
certainty and demanding people to believe them - on pain of eternal death.)
Thus: There are no authorities. Because of belief in authorities the crowd is always wrong ! !
There are no authorities , and I am one of them ! ....Thus old Bakunin is half wrong when he says:
" there is no fixed and constant authority, but a continual exchange of mutual, temporary, and, above all, voluntary authority and subordination."!
......... The main danger and obstacle for human beings has always been "authority " ! Let us fight it !
Do not import israelii goods ! ---- ! Let us start an international investigation concerning the total crimes against humanity committed by Israel during 61 years !!!
