This is a modernism and commerce related discussion between Shiva (Hindu god of destruction) and the Gray Goblin (Marvel Comics), a fictional anarchist-terrorist.
This discussion was inspired by the films Toys and Fellini Satyricon.
====
SHIVA: Enlightenment lifts the spirit.
GOBLIN: Suicide reminds us of fatality.
SHIVA: There's a bright-side to indulgences/taxes.
GOBLIN: What's that?
SHIVA: Self-discovery...
GOBLIN: Even during fear and pain?
SHIVA: Yes --- e.g., neuroplasticity.
GOBLIN: It's true that the body absorbs pain.
SHIVA: The mind remembers its own happiness!
GOBLIN: That is odd indeed, especially since death is real.
SHIVA: Memory is the gateway to youth...
GOBLIN: Sentiment is the not same as hope.
SHIVA: What about Facebook --- e.g., friendship!
GOBLIN: 'Systems-vitality' is based on fantasy (e.g., Fountain of Youth).
SHIVA: Even Yale professors enjoy cheeseburgers...
GOBLIN: Maybe arson in commerce is catharsis!
SHIVA: I think video-games encourage peace.
GOBLIN: Even Mortal Kombat?
