Quills
Posted at 12:11 pm
At some point in world history, the quill was at the pinnacle of handwriting technology. Overcoming the conventional rudimentary methods for penmanship, the quill provided benefits such as ink storage (if ever so small) and finer lines for more readable script. More important than this, however, was the image that one portrayed whilst writing with a full and beautiful quill feather. It didn’t matter what a person wrote, it only mattered that they looked gorgeous whilst doing it. Frilled and puffy was the appearance of high society and thus, an elegant writing tool communicated an aura of wealth, power and intelligence to those with less extravagant writing utensils.
The same is true of society today, as evident in our recent election. People like the pomp and circumstance…to have their ears tickled. The underlying message is irrelevant if it “sounds good” or is praised by news outlets in full color and 1080p High Definition with 7.1 Dolby Digital Surround Sound. All moral issues aside, have we as a society truly become this mass of blundering idiots? Even an atheist with no basis for morality understands that socialism does not work; perhaps we have forgotten the past and are now doomed to repeat it.
