    Existence is being. Being is change. The universe exists for change.

    Ification is the process of being. Reification is changing to another being. Deification is making something holy (by removing it's being).

    “Democracy is also a form of worship. It is the worship of Jackals by Jackasses. It is the theory that the common people know what they want, and deserve to get it good and hard.”
    H.L. Mencken

    "The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary."
