For too long false-life has been defended. Men stand on the front lines, defending the rites of simple falseness. Women cower behind it's conveniency. In each age myths are created. I speak not so much of the myths of the gods but those of culture, of mankind.
It is the framework of conveniency that is built up that allows the masses, the common stalk of societies to function without forging through uncharted territory anew. Instead of displaying a grand life for the individual to live, a pathetic life full of inaccurate but easy to understand rituals are set forth as the diagram which citizens should follow. With this simple plan a high percentage of people may fulfill their roles, thus becoming a society. Though false, the mass of people together form a tribe or even a nation. It does not matter if they live false for their spears or whichever weapons they choose are just as deadly. The animal man lives on regardless of it's falsehoods.
In modern life this will become harder as time continues. The falseness is being uncovered more and more. Truth will be the standard for all. Those who stand by those convenient falsehoods will stand out for their foolishness. The popularity of falsehoods will die away as truth becomes the trend. All things grow in number as they become the fad. Truth too will go that way as it already is.
