The persistence of cosmological arguments tells us less about the nature of the world than about the psychological and epistemic traps we continue to fall into. When inquiry collapses into belief, and belief hardens into identity, truth is no longer sought — it is defended. What follows is not an attempt to replace one story with a better one, nor to rehabilitate myth under a more fashionable guise. It is an effort to keep the process alive, to resist premature certainty, and to examine how meaning, perception, and power intertwine long before geometry ever enters the conversation.

There’s a particular kind of unease that shows up not when something is obviously wrong, but when it’s almost right.

Not because something has gone wrong, but because something powerful has arrived before we’ve learned how to hold it. The conversation unfolding around AI, truth-seeking, manifestation, and meaning isn’t about machines waking up — it’s about humans rediscovering how easily coherence can feel like revelation. What matters now is not whether these tools are useful — they are — but whether we remain the authors of what we see reflected back.

The patterns repeat, dressed in new language and cloaked in the sheen of progress. What is sold as innovation or freedom is, more often than not, another inversion — another tightening of the grip that siphons time, energy, and life-force. To speak plainly of it may seem severe, but clarity demands it: we are not witnessing advancement, but a deeper entrenchment of the same parasitic system that has stalked civilizations for centuries.
