  Gr4302, you've touched something I've often wondered about.  Does reality
only consist of what you can see, or is it only what cannot be perceived by
the "obvious" senses?  There's the theory that the visible world around us
is such an illusion that is actually subject to the bending force of our wills.
We make our own reality.  Who needs a moral code or society's restraints
when you are living in a universe of your own creation?

   And, if you have the power to mold your environment to suit your needs,
who the hell needs to go outside, or even feel the real wind on your face?
Why bother, when you can just imagine a life custom-built.  Just wait till
virtual reality is perfected and disseminated to the public.  The lines
between what you can imagine and what you can experience will gradually
fade until mankind will eventually be living in his own dream-state.


P.S.  I didn't understand your point about Joseph and Judah in Genesis.
      What was that about icons?
