untruth is difficult

 

Untruth is a source of trouble. It always wants,

expects, demands.

Being false, it is empty, always in search of

confirmation and reassurance.

It is afraid of and avoids enquiry.

It identifies itself with any support however weak and

momentary

 

I am that.

Chapter 12

 

 

L.E: There is no such thing as untruth being the

source of trouble.

There are people who lie and they, and lie can be a

problem for you if

you accept it as truth. That exists. There is nothing

real about

talking about untruth as an " it " that can do anything.

 

...............................................

 

although I disagree, I always enjoy how you challenge

whatever might have autoritie over you.

 

L.E: On second thought, maybe if he is talking about lies that people

tell, and saying that lies can do this and do that, perhaps I can agree.

But that kind of speech is an abstraction, It seems clearer to me if

the idea is directed at the lier and his iies, rather than personifying

the

lie itself. That is the same kind of talking that states, justice is

the important factor in building a nation. Justice is an abstraction,

but people what act with justice is not.
