sirs, ive been thinking, materialism as science can be quite mystical. everything is atoms(which are "empty." lawrence krauss explains why theyre not -really- empty, but bear with it). a dish of sea-food is made of atoms just as a pile of dung. And both are equally empty. a soft pillow and a tactical knife are both atom-matter.
things are just what they are. A "beatiful" woman is full of pus,blood,excrement,piss and bilis. is this bad? no. its not beatiful either. it's just an arrangement of matter.
