Nighty-Night

(11)

This brings us to a new day. I am listening to Mozart piano concertos as I write this. Twenty One comes to mind. I read in a national magazine today (Newsweek?) that the new pope is a Mozart Afficionato and as such is a 'joyful being.' Well, maybe.

But I don't think that a love of Mozart qualifies you in the moral realm.

Joy is a human attribute whereas morality is a religious idea. Morality tends to suppress joy. That is to say that religion tends to suppress the natural joy of our human family. It is a balance which is fundamental to our collective humanity. There can be too much joy. There can also be too much 'morality' which tends to suppress joy.

In closing I would advise you that if you understood the preceeding argument you may want to seek out the services of a logician. In any case, nighty-night.
