So Much Talk About The System. And So Little Understanding.

Alright, let's think about this rationally.
Let us review the way the world has evolved, let us focus on the reasons that 'civilised' society ever developed. Let us try and understand the reasons why morality exists. Why certain actions have been deemed to be 'immoral', and therefore unacceptable, in the eyes of both society and some higher being. Let us try and understand what the point is in so tightly holding onto the belief of a higher being; of a higher spirit watching over us and our actions, and deciding whether those actions are worthy of approval or indeed, of condemnation.
Why? Why are we here? Why do our actions have to be censored by, not only man-made law, but also the higher 'natural law'? Why do so many of the world's people not spend more time asking these questions and trying to find answers? Why are so many content to accept things the way they are? Why do the others, the questioning minority, drive themselves crazy asking such questions for which answers probably don't exist?
Perhaps rationality is not the approach to take.

Allow me to quote from Robert M. Pirsig's "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance":

'To speak of certain government and establishment institutions as "the system" is to speak correctly, since these organisations are founded upon the same structural conceptual relationships as a motorcycle. They are sustained by structural relationships even when they have lost all other meaning and purpose. People arrive at a factory and perform a totally meaningless task from eight to five without question because the structure demands it to be that way. There's no villain, no 'mean guy' who wants them to live meaningless lives, it's just that the structure, the system demands it and no one is willing to take on the formidable task of changing the structure just because it is meaningless.
But to tear down a factory or to revolt against a government...because it is a system, is to attack effects rather than causes; and as long as the attack is upon effects only, no change is possible. The true system, the real system, is our present construction of systematic thought itself, rationality itself, and if a factory is torn down but the rationality which produced it is left standing, then that rationality will simply produce another factory. If a revolution destroys a systematic government, but the systematic patterns of thought that produced that government are left intact, then those patterns will repeat themselves in the succeeding government. There's so much talk about the system. And so little understanding.'
