False Questions

release
Date: 2017-03-16
  • is the nature of humans good or evil?
  • if X doesn't work, what can we replace it with?
  • I heard a girl say, "what is my type?"

Western culture is taught to believe in opposites. Black and whites. This or that. Eastern culture is taught to believe in duality. Black and white extremes of infinite shades of gray. And/or/both/neither.
