I wrote The Foundation for Exploration

I have created a new understanding of human nature that has incredibly important applications.

I did not write this book because I thought I could make a buck, or because I half-heartedly wanted to be a cool and famous writer, or thought that I just had some alright ideas. I wrote this because if I didn't, I would have killed myself. The feeling of pure torture that comes with watching society flounder, and my own life go down the tubes with it, while perfectly understanding the underlying human nature and solutions to eradicate all the pointless powerlessness and suffering is indescribable. It was this feeling of complete powerlessness that was the sole driving force within myself to write this book.

I do not know the best way to communicate what is explained in the book in such a short window. For now I will post the Contents and hope that people can ask questions.

It is difficult to find people who are intellectual yet who are not complete pseudointellectuals. That is why I chose this location on the internet to spread the knowledge contained in my book. *Throws up across the room* I believe my book is very important because I have discovered the true understanding of human nature at it's core, all having to do with power/powerlessness, as well as some amazing applications of this understanding into sociology and the construction of society in many areas. I'll answer any serious questions.

Definitely The Foundation for Exploration by Sean Goonan.

Pic related - it's the cover of The Foundation for Exploration by Sean Goonan.

Is there any doubt that a large-scale all-encompassing societal revolution of the mind and everything is needed in order to save the species from a slow and painful extinction?

This is what you are looking for.

Thoughts?

"We have free will, we are not all powerful, we are not all knowing, and we experience the universe
with a biological framework and consciousness. I have discovered that due to this inherent structure of our perceived existence, we
follow two distinct paths. The duality of human nature is this:

Every single human feeling, thought, or action at any level of experience or awareness can be categorized under two equally valid
but opposite reactions to the absurdity of the universe. Rejection and destruction or acceptance and building."

"Fundamental individual destructive tendencies given our free will in a meaningless existence are a lack of self-control, cowardice,
a lack of wonder, and a lack of sense of humor. Without courage, self-control, wonder and/or humor the individual and society
disintegrates. A lack of those four things leads people to wrath, depression, madness, hedonism, and ignorance. These five major
ways that destructiveness occurs greatly diminish the quality of someone's life and eventually lead to the cessation of life for
the individual and humanity."

"Wrath

Our inherent meaningless existence produces mental and physical anguish. Other people or society as a whole can exacerbate anguish
produced by existing. The source of this mental and physical anguish is powerlessness. An individual that feels powerless may
reject the conditions that produce the powerlessness and retaliate through wrath as an attempt to gain power. The attempt to gain
power through wrath is either the attempt to supersede the powerlessness by trying to obtain all the power one can get (which
indirectly creates destructiveness in the individual and society), or the direct destruction of anything that creates powerlessness.

Wrath is destruction and destruction is power.
Wrath is extreme power and extreme power is destruction."

>People think philosophy is dead.

The Goonan book I made a thread about talking about consciousness. I feel like I am at the top of consciousness now.

Is it possible for a person to read a certain book and become conscious and completely change their life in one read? Or does consciousness have to be slowly cultivated over a very long time?

This one is non-fiction. It is all about masculinity and facing adversity.

If there was a book that solved all of humanity's problems for all of eternity, should this book be celebrated or destroyed?

Read this book. You need to unite with others against our destructive society.

The Answer to Everything

SHUT EVERYTHING DOWN. E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G. Make everyone read this now and awaken everyone and restructure society completely. No more destruction and ignorance.

The Answer

>Greatest and most important organization of thought of all time.
>Currently ranked like 800,000 on amazon.

Hmmm, really makes you think. If all we are exposed to is what the (publishing industry) deems acceptable for us to read in book form, there might be some knowledge that slips through the cracks and goes unnoticed. Hmm, interesting.

Stop reading other books.

Not. Any. More. And they weren't to begin with. But I'd say Nietzsche was one of the greatest geniuses before.
