It’s all very primal, isn’t it? It’s all very basic. Do you like being basic? Can philosophers be basic, too? Are philosophers animals just like everyone else?
No comment.
You think this is appalling, all this … flesh. All this fucking. All this dependency. You don’t like being dependent on me. You don’t like romance, not really. You don’t like anything animal.
Cicero said we should escape the natural cycles.
You can’t escape the natural cycles. You can’t escape the animal you are. We fuck like animals because we are animals.
We’re more than animals. There’s something that … breaks in. Something that’s … more than all of this. Transcendence, maybe.
Transcendence – like, God? Listen to you: because the philosopher doesn’t like lust, he has to bring in God.
Where’d God supposed to be, philosopher? Why is he always absent?
Because God belongs to absence. Or the other way round. The absent belongs to God. It’s of God. It’s the way God’s present, maybe.
Then God isn’t much good. God isn’t helping.
So what’s God supposed to be?
The meaning of the world.
Some meaning. Absent meaning. If God’s absent, then is meaning absent, too?
Why do we have to use the word, God. Why do we need it, the idea of God, philosopher? I know. So we can talk about Everything. We need to talk about Everything. And God’s a way of talking about everything.
About what’s more than everything.
