Giordano Bruno

I went and saw this statue of Giordano Bruno in Rome and for reasons mostly unknown to me at the time was overcome with emotion. I didn't really know who he was, but had read somewhere that he had his tongue ripped out and was burned at the stake by the Catholic Church.

And when you think about it, that is worse than coming across a mob of 'Woke's'. And I know y'all are going to start thinking I'm crazy, but sometimes i think I might have belonged to some minority view, or position, or group in some previous birth. And that is why i am always suspicious of big organizations and groups and what they will always attempt to do to any dissenting voices, or any heretical views. And that is why i think censorship is for cowards. Along with trying to enforce any correct political or religious views.

Anyway, maybe that is just a fantasy, but I can dig some of those Neoplatonists from the Italian Renaissance more than the Catholic Church. And the Bruno's and the Pico's and the Ficino's and some of their old myths and weird ideas, and their deep passions and their philosophy. And i am going to stop raving on now because I am thinking it might not sound rational and could destroy my reputation, or at least, what I have left of it, and I haven't even been smoking any weed, and can't really give any proper excuses.
