Here's one;
Is time the point of the present, moving past to future, or is it change, turning future to past?
Much of our leading physics theories are built around the belief in the first, so obviously they must be right.
Yet we are mobile organisms, so this sequence of perceptions is necessary for navigating, but does that make it foundational?
Can there be a dimension of time, if cause becomes effect?
Here's another one;
Is money a contractual accounting device, enabling mass economies, or a commodity to mine from the economy? Given it functions as a contract, saving the asset requires generating the debt to back it, so much of our wealth is backed by public debt that was spent blowing up other countries. What is the return on that?
How about this;
Would a spiritual absolute be the essence of sentience, from which we rise, or an ideal of wisdom and judgement, from which we fell?
What if an entire culture is built on the principle of treating the ideal as absolute? Wouldn't that just encourage the crazies?
It all does seem quite comical, at least from a far enough distance.
