MYSTICS ALWAYS RUN THINGS ASS-BACKWARDS
by Bill Joslin

This is what I find perplexing: Many people paint materialism as a philosophy that guts the life and beauty out of the world.
But here’s the thing, any organism – that is any living thing which is not literally rooted into soil (a plant) – must seek out opportunity to acquire resources to stay alive.

This necessitates some feedback system of detection, adaptation to direct fruitful action.

In other words; memory, cognition, prediction exist as a broad description of the means by which humans (and other mammals) survive – and this system would be completely useless in any other universe which was not predominantly and fundamentally materialistic.

(That’s not to say ONLY materialistic a, but rather primarily materialistic) – this means materialism is what puts the life and beauty into humans and reality.
