Here is the bottom line.
The story he tells about the palace.
He, and the religious, think of us and our existence as the palace when in actuality, we are the chaos.
It is a self-centric, terribly arrogant view to think of ourselves as perfection. A rock stays on earth far longer than we do. The wind can move faster. The water is more resilient. Why are we superior? Because we can think? Such a naive childish answer, like a rich man thinking he is better than a poorer man. It's a meaningless, insignificant value that we've attributed to ourselves because it is something we ourselves desire. We value ourselves, therefore we are sacrosanct. Nonsense.
