Illusions

[diamond]

I agree, maize, we create our own reality in all kinds of ways. Human beings impose all kinds of structures on their perceptions to try to organize and make sense of all the data that comes to us. I think we do it to feel safe, to be able to predict somehow, to get a handle on what is ultimately an unknowable reality.

I agree Blaze, I'll add that we also do it for political purposes. One of my favorite "illusions", political maps. We observe north/south/east/west and of course the western world gets mapped out ON TOP of the lands it's been known to rape. The winners on top, the losers on the bottom. I know this isn't where you were coming from Cone, I just don't know what else to add or how to further your discussion about socionics/behaviorism/illusion.

You sound like a social worker! (no offense; I am a social worker, too) :wink:

Are you familiar with postmodernism?
