Don't Slap Your Reality On Me Like Handcuffs...

... in clothes of fake intellect ... because when the intellect is un-handcuffed by the removal of the taught emotional reactions, it becomes a powerful tool in the discovery of truth.

Thanks for your comment. I appreciate your feedback. As I consider these posts a form of art, they are open to subjective interpretation so your view of the meaning of this work are totally correct as it applies to you. From my perspective, I would keep the wording as it is. I would not add "fake" to "intellect". I do not think intelligence is fundamentally a tool for discovering truth. I think it can be used for that purpose and many others including a tool to distort truth, and possibly has been used for the latter more often than the former. Thank you again for your comment.
