I actually know people who dislike Virtual Reality and things like Second Life, saying such things are not real and are escapes and whatever.
Yet, they read People magazine, and follow the cult of celebrities!
What is worse: create an Avatar, or create a demi-god of Tiger Woods? And what is the morality of it all?
It's morally neutral, sir. Morality is an outmoded concept. You simply roll your own.
ReplyDeleteWhen you say Morality is an outmoded concept, you reinforce my belief in what I see for the future...and I don't mind saying I rather dislike it.
ReplyDeleteI know you were being sarcastic...come to think of it, what other attitude is proper with which to view our age other than sarcasm?
ReplyDeleteEveryone used to be cynical, satire seems to be beyond our comprehension, so we are left with sarcasm...meaning "to bite".
