Guest guest Posted July 4, 2002 Report Share Posted July 4, 2002 San Francisco just passed a law, in effect saying, it is Evil to deficate in the street; it is Good to use a toilet. The " beholder " is society's creation. A " memory of good and evil " . Kept in place out of fear of retribution. However in SF there are rare public toilets. Which creates a problem for the " beholder " . He is damn'd if he does, and damn'd if he doesn't. That is what I see in the " eye of the beholder " .

" beholder " sounds like a personage, a doer, believer, but OK You say it's a Memory of good and evil. That " place " is the mind....ok.. > However in SF there are rare public toilets. > Which creates a problem for the " beholder " . > He is damn'd if he does, > and damn'd if he doesn't. > That beholder has the problem of it's memory, it's " fear of retribution " .... > That is what I see in the " eye of the beholder " . While you " recognize " that there is a Beholder, who has Good and Evil in their Eye, that Good and Evil is merely Memories. Moreover, the Beholder is no Doer (but memories) and there is Indeed no Good and Evil....? > El Just attempting to see what you mean... be well, d_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
