Reasons?

Wat is dan de taak van de kunstenaar?
Wat is dan de reden van religie?

Ik bedoel dat in de zin van wanneer religie gewoon hoort bij de mens als seks en spel enzo, kortom als het een tool is waarmee we nu eenmaal zijn uitgerust, wat moeten we er dan mee beginnen?

"The times they are a changing"   (very quickly)

The universe moves outwards in expansion, as it does so it quickens, as does our own galaxy and the earth moves with it, meaning we are all averaging about 120,000 mph per person, while we travel through space!
(the speed of light is about 670,616,630 miles per hour)

The earth is never in one place in space for long, its always moving into 'virgin' space territory,( so what falls on our heads is anyones guess).
All our associations are bound to earth, all our efforts are much about 'ourselves', up until the last century?

In todays world there is no 'good' place for religionist thinking, or even a need for self portraits.
Religion only shows us the 'dark' side of mankind, and relies on 'promise'.
Art has become / is, 'intellectual candy', it is devoid today of its higher meaning and goals, they are of another age, irrelevant  and defunct in todays world.

When these 'higher' goals no longer exist, (they acted as guides and certain qualities were demanded first, before a work could ever be 'accepted' as art", we remain in 'anarchy'. No 'global' message, just personal views, with the vague hope of discovery somewhere in the background.  (Saatchi?)

If God is truly dead, then there is no 'good' reason for religion, I.E. 'Astrology' is 'nonsense' because 'Astronomy' proves it to be.

Time, orientation, and place have more to do with life than an 'idea' an old Jewish visionary may have had thousands of years ago, one which has more to do with 'politics' than 'spectral fatherhood'. Why hold fast to such 'nonsense'?

Anarchy and Profanity has brought us a long way, why give it up now?
Intelligence is 'mankind's' ticket to a better world, along with the 'provane anarchistic
artist' who is allowed to 'comment' on its progress.

So basically, religion has become 'heartless'; its defunct.
Art, is anarchy, religious in its profanity.  smile

( We should be happy, even from the knowledge, that there is no real answer, only attempts to explanations, that we are 'included' in this 'mystery', is a privilege in itself, so smile, that's life!)
