If your answer to the question mentioned previously in the last chapter is a big fat "YES", then it makes us wonder, why do we feel like this? Where have the absurd "standards" that we try to adapt to and follow come from? Who tells us what we should do and what we shouldn't do? Who was the first person to say that things have to be a certain way, and ruled out somethings as illegitimate options?
For all I know we shouldn't care about many of these "standards" for many reasons.
1. The world is just a huge rock orbiting around one flaming boy, in the middle of absolutely nowhere.
2. I think number one has been enough. However, if you wanna read the other reasons, you can purchase the Downloadable Content for just 30$.
If you look at the universe in that way, and look at our so beloved earth as nothing but a rock and humans as nothing but tiny dots on a rock, even our very morals start to slip away, and for a second an unholy thought enters your mind.
"What if I leave the toilet sit up?"
In a world that even the nastiest of thoughts can enter your mind, how can the conventions of society survive? Why do we even hold onto them? And how can we base our whole lives on something that we don't really know where it's come from?
Or maybe we hold them close to our hearts, not letting anything shake them because we are trying desperately to have something that makes sense? For something that defines our existence, gives it a purpose and values us? Take our assumptions away, what do we have?
Hold on a second...!
Is that how religions were born? Is that the reason a descendant of an ancestor of mine, many miles away from me attends church sporadically? Cause we possess nothing but the thought of a loving god?
But however if your answer was a "No", then I envy you sir. For you can cover up the facts and lie, wish I could do that.
